CFA L2 and CAIA L1 failed, taken

meghanjackson

Just wondering if anyone that has taken the CFA L2 exam and subsequently took L1 of the CAIA exam failed the CAIA exam??

MC = multiple choice

It was pretty overwhelming for the March exam. Some of the MC will be blocks of 4-6 questions on the same topic. So your mind will start to play tricks with you if you start messing up the first few questions. If you have any more questions, post a thread next door and i'll check it out...

How much is the CAIA L1?

Rasec

real expensive.

to join the program = 400
early/late registration = 900/1000

books:
schweser or uppermark = 350ish
level 1 = 125ish
level 2 = 330ish

the only good part is that retakes are $350 and 6 months later.

another bad part is that i think level 2 they're changing one of the curriculum books every exam period. that means:
1) resale of your schweser/uppermark will be hard
2) if you retake, you'll have to get a new set of schweser/uppermark or buy the new book for 125ish.

Lucky. I paid on my own. Glad to have the charter though. It's not that marketable, but it's ok. It might be later. It was a great experience and i really like the material from top to bottom.

Jarvey did you use Schweser for CAIA level 2? Did you pass the first time?

Haha. I've been thinking the same too. The only thing missing are dates and "references available upon request"...
