Analyze_This

I used Stalla lecture videos (not the online classes, since the videos let you study at your own pace and without internet connection) and found them to be amazing in putting all the concepts together. I've always studied 3rd party (from schweser, Q-bank and secret sauce is were very helpful. From Stalla, lecture videos/notes are a must!) and I've never opened a CFAI text and still passed it all. There are many people that have passed with 3rd party providers so I don't know what is with all the "you have to read CFAI text to pass". There ARE other ways/methods of passing this and many have done it.

You can pass this test using CFAI, Schweser, or Stalla and its more about the time you put to study learning the concepts and sometimes luck on what shows up on the exam that determine that pass or fail.
