Hi, I was going to do L1 in December 2018, but did some other exams instead....I read ethics and quant and did OK on it. I have the June 2017 CFA books and analystnotes - any suggestions on which to concentrate on and the order of study sessions I should do....i.e. should I do SS4- onwards and re-cap 1-3 afterwards? Should I use analystnotes and refer to CFA books only on problem parts? Advice sought Many thanks in advance |

I felt that the most important sections are: -ethics (15%) -quants (~10%) -FSA (20%) -Equities (10%) -Fixed Income (12%) Equities and fixed income together is about half the amount of work of FSA, so there's an easy 22%. Do these first then re-study them again once you do everything else. Definitely you should study and practice these sections at least twice before the exam. I felt the eco and derivatives churned up alot of time for not being worth much. They have a massive amount fo material for their weights. Good luck! |
