CFA Level II starting organised studying studying

trogulj

Hi all

Gave my test and there is no way i am going to clear it. I know even if i did by fluke, i dont deserve it. Got married in Feb and surely was not able to concentrate on studies.

Now i want to nail it, after seeing the paper i feel i can do it. However even for Level I my study was not organised. Now that i have one year, i want to know few things, if anyone here can help.

1) When will CFA Institute release material for L2 2012 ? By how much the curriculum will be different ? since i dont want to discontinue studying, want to ensure that studying from existing curriculum would be of help.
2) I simply had no time to study so only studied for 3 months from Schweser Notes which i believe backfired, do you guys think studying from Curriculum is the better way? since i want to opt for it now that i have time.
3) i want to to study 2 hrs on weekdays and 5-6 hrs on weekends (saturday and sunday) since i also have an active social life, will intensify post december, will this be enough?
4) How much weigtage would you give to practicing? what should i do? solve CFAI? Schwser EOS Qs.?
5) Which tests are most effective? CFAI / Schweser / Elan (i hope they release 1 for L2)

Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
