hi all,
i'm thinking of taking the test, but i come from a science background w/ no training in econ or finance.
given that, i hear that elan ultimate prep w/ cfai books are enough for me to learn everything that i didn't learn as a college student. is this true?
or do i really need college textbooks as reference? or is it recommended?
any college textbooks that you feel is a great reference to have? much thanks!作者: homie 时间: 2011-7-11 18:31
Hi, you don't need "college textbooks" for any of the exams...all the material that is required - and is thoroughly explained - is provided in the CFA institute textbooks that are part of the exam registration fee.
Just sign up for the exam, and if you'll have all the information you need....Most people don't even read the CFAI books because they are over-detailed...Elan/Schweser or other providers give you condensed version of each subject....
