I read CFAI text and done all EOC on my first pass and redone more
difficult EOCs during the month leading to exam.
I found the source material very interesting to read and that's it. I made a decision
to review with Schweser and mocks and have no regrets about my decision.
The CFAI material is huge, sometimes watery and sometimes absolutely impractical
for tactical review (this is exactly what you need to do multiple times during the last
month of practice and review).

Schweser, OTOH, doesn't cut corners as some believe and gives you intuitive solutions
for some very complicated topics (I still don't believe CFAI gave an approximated solution
for FRA before maturity which confused many folks on AF). Yes, you run a risk to lose
some dimes and nickels but I bet you probably gonna lose them anyway.

If I fail I will blame only myself for that not Schweser.
BTW, speaking of economics in CFA text, I tried to find explanations to my doubts after the exam and I found nothing in the text to resolve them (and I knew where to look).

Bottom line, there is no universal magical solution for L2, everybody makes
their own mind which approach suits them the best.
