Hello everyone, I registered to take the CFA level 1 in December and started studying about 1.5 weeks ago. I study 2-3 hours each day and I am currently on basics of quantative methods. I achieved my bachelors in finance so this type of material is relatively easy to me. I planned on cranking up my study sessions around June to 20 hours a week. However, I have read that many people dont even read the CFA books and only go through Schweser. Can I please have some clarity on that? And do you feel that my method of studying is appropriate as of right now?作者: jim8z3 时间: 2013-4-28 09:23
You’re way ahead of the game if starting now for December. Schweser is a very popular 3rd party exam provider, and for nearly all purposes, taking L1 using Schweser is very adequate.作者: btcapital 时间: 2013-4-28 09:23
If you have a finance background already, you’re probably going to be overkill for level 1 if you’re starting now. Of course everyone is different and you know where you’re at better than anyone else, but that is A LOT of time and you might forget some of the concepts you’re studying now by exam day.
To answer the question, I passed all 3 levels using almost exclusively only schweser (I used some of the CFAI books for level 3).
