Anyone passed level 1 exam at the age of 24 and below? experience, limitation, advantage, industry, studying

Hi guys, im a graduated student which has no experience at all in finance industry, i decide to take level 1 exam in june, from what i read in this forum there are many people who take exams at around late 20s and all have several years of experience, so I wanna ask are there many people who just graduated and study CFA? Is there any limitation in studying because I dont have any advantage and experience at all?

Thanks

22 to pass level I. Finance and Accounting Major with Econ minor. honestly the less you have in your life to manage and the fresher your studying habits are makes it EASIER but in no way impassable.

my friend is 23 sitting for lvl 3 this june. (he passed lvl 2 with 30 days of studying)
last week i met someone who is 40ish and finished all 3 levels on 03,04 and 05 respectively. he then tells me he is doing logistics.
i say to him "Give me ur charter if u dun plan to use it!!!"

I passed level 1 and I'm 23. Get it done when you're young.

Registered for December level 1 - marketing undergrad, 6 months in PE fund... From my point of view it's just about studying a bit harder without no finance experience and givin' it a bit more time... everything is possible with the right attitude - sky is the limit
