Life will not change just bc you passed L1 otherwise, absolute, studying, passing, already

mnieman

not 1 iota unless you're already at a shop that gives bonuses for passing each level (and those are few and far between)

but otherwise enjoy the victory take at least the next 3 months OFF FROM CFA before you start preparing for L2 so you can be focused and rejuvinated

November is the absolute earliest you want to start studying for Level 2 unless you put in 500 hours for Level I and barely passed
