Done derivatives and alternative investments, ethics and standards, half quantitative methods and almost done with Fixed income, looking forward to be done around final September, leaving me with 2 months to make some revisions and mock exams.

Just started with FRA. Done with equity, fixed income and economics. Trying to finish one study session a week so that I finish the syllabus somewhere by mid October.

In that case, shouldn't you have your CFA by now? What the heck are you doing trolling L1 forums anyway? LOL.

Band 10 from Dec10 ,,
(crammed 13x hrs + 1 mock
started in mid Oct and work was a disaster in Nov so I had to go in blind with ethics)

For Dec11, I started last week with ethics ... (haha, I knw it's late)
Study plan is to finish the material mid Oct, review, cram the formulas and breathe a little
Mon-fri : Study during 6:30-8:30 ,, spend another hour making flash cards
Sat-Sun : Study from 11am-2pm and then 4pm-7pm
I'll be able to lock in 250 hrs within the end of Oct ^^

P.s. I hv a background in finance (undergrad and work)
so I think if get ethics and quant right this time, I'll be ok (crossing my fingers)

I've started Reading 38, but got stuck on the Income Taxes.. btw I'm non-native speaker so it takes me much time. I've decided to read Schweser notes first and do the practice questions from both books. I have a business administration degree, so most of the parts I already know, so I guess I'll finish the readings until November.
