L2 advice needed (non-finance background) material, currency, question, situation, background

mamuka12

Hi, i took L1 last week and hopefully i passed. I'm ready to take the risk and start early for L2 june2011 before getting my result end of january.

Here's my situation... I'm from a totally unrelated background and my only exposure to the world of finance was thru currency trading in the past few years until i decided to study for CFA. Overall i studied about 6 months effectively for L1 and except retaining i didnt have much problem with comprehending the material.

My question is would studying for about 5.5 months, 20 hours per week and 100 hours in the last two weeks give me enough time to master the material with a good chance of passing given my non- finance bakground? Has anyone with an unrelated background who passed level 1 last december and sat for L2 in june can share their experiences with me please?
