I told you all of this in confidence. If Jessica ever read this, the decision would be made for me. Luckily, Scarlett couldn't give a @#$%&...

Isn't that too much - 2 weeks? ;) I actually studied for one week, intensively. I hope I am not in Band 1

2 weeks for the whole CFA Level 2 curriculum This is astounding as far as I am concerned.
Personally, I had to study for over 4 months.
I hope that the human species evolves to produce more and more of you guys with a lot of retention capacity and understanding of the material at lightening speed.
But, on the other hand the experts say that evolution occurs only when there are constraints. With human species getting more and more comfortable in its own skin and massive famine being a thing of the past for the most part, I do not see any major constraints for further evolution in human species. May be another species in a few million years perhaps??

Best of luck to you all in your forthcoming exams.
