It is about 16 weeks left for the exam day. I am done with 40% of the syllabus but just realised that im rushing without making sure that I have strong grasp of the concepts.
Done Quant, Eco, FSA, and Corp Finance, still have to sleigh the beast (aka Equity) and all that other good stuff. Definitely not looking forward to Portfolio Managment! Seems like a shitload of material for only 1 item set
finished Corp. Finance.....for Ethics, stats and Econ read schweser....FSA and Corp finance CFAI books....going forward will only read CFAI.
I strategy: Read CFAI (1 SS per week avg.) do Schweser concept questions at the end of each session....At the end of each SS I watch schweser lecture and do all EOC. I do about 10 questions per reading on qbank or finquiz after the SS.
After each volume I do a cumulative exam, excluding ethics.
Goal is to finish all of Equity by February 25th (I have a week off next week) then spend the weekend reviewing everything, except ethics. At this rate I hope to finish everything by the 22nd of April and spend the rest of the time reviewing and questions.
So far has worked decent, I get a decent grasp of the material ....but a loooooonnngggg way away
Plan to complete everything except FRA and Equity by end of March, leave a month for FRA and Equity. The last month will be spent on revisions, mockups and revision.
Our group has been going since October. We have covered approximately 86% of the material. Only have Derivatives/Portfolio Management left, which will be completed in a little under 3 weeks. From there, it's just review time.
