hey - you'll have free access to the CFAI learning ecosystem with your registration, do the mocks on there. No other tips beyond this video + my study plan one :)

cfai learning ecosystem

That was a general comment on topics that are generally considered hard - follow the specific order in this Level 1 video, as that's tailored to this particular level Good luck!

@@HaarisZamir thanks and God Bless you! I got myself MM & IFT HY course as you suggested as well. Stills lots to do but enjoying this more than uni.

ermmm, is this for Level 1? might work for L1, deffo not L2 or L3. Even so, I think HY is better for reviews / a quicker summary, so I'd never recommend them as main lecture notes

@@hopeful806 yes I did that at level 1 - solid option

Nice - good luck!

yes it'll teach you

nope other than the odd occasion for a deep dive / at L3 for the case studies

@@HaarisZamir thanks for the reply. So no blue boxes except for the ones Mark went through in his videos? Just watch the MM video lecture, review IFT notes, EOC questions from CFAI (or through the online CFA LES) and then just review videos for materials you understood or rewatch video lectures for those that needed more understanding? Is that correct?

@@crazytrain591 Pretty much exactly yes

Thanks for this vid and your responses - seriously. Final question - I’ve been watching MM and then attempting to go through the CFAI chapters after each lecture for LII and it has been so time consuming and frankly, disheartening, when trying the EOC’s because I feel like I’m not retaining anything from the CFAI text. I think I might give the IFT notes a shot. I know you passed but looking back, did you feel they were thorough enough paired with MM that you didn’t miss out on topics or info by skipping the CFAI text? I used Kaplan Schweser for L1 and I did not feel good coming out of that exam (though I passed) because I felt the way Kaplan worded the material and presented their notes was not only different than how the CFAI presented it but they also were less thorough. That’s my biggest fear with skipping out on CFAI’s official text. Also, where did the IFT High Yield notes fall into the mix exactly in your study plan? How were those used and do you think they’re necessary?

No rush on it - for the foreseeable future

Deffo focus on structured response (SR) questions - search RUclips, Mark Meldrum has some videos on how to answer If you're using him as your prep provider, do all the SR mocks, and attend the live walk throughs (they help so much) Otherwise hopefully you have review videos / high yield notes - try to review 3/4 videos every morning - then smash out questions (try do all the ones on the CFA learning ecosystem) Good luck!

On the high yield notes, if you review something and you don't feel like you understand that topic, go back to the main lecture notes and read again / watch the review video (don't have to do this for every topic if you understand some parts more than others) - the HY notes help keep the curriculum fresh in your mind but if you don't understand it, they won't help Deffo focus on structured response (SR) questions - search RUclips, Mark Meldrum has some videos on how to answer If you're using him as your prep provider, do all the SR mocks, and attend the live walk throughs (they help so much) Otherwise hopefully you have review videos / high yield notes - try to review 3/4 videos every morning - then smash out questions (try do all the ones on the CFA learning ecosystem) Good luck!

There are 6 chapters for the Portfolio Management Pathway now

Deffo the general notes - HY is for reviews, basically a condensed version

Hey. I am writing L3 in August 2024. I am reviewing the material currently and working through the portal questions. About 39 days from the exam. What should be the strategy from here? But i keep forgetting stuff. I have used IFT notes to study​. However, do you suggest that i used Hy Notes for reviewing entirely? Because they skip some details and what if they appear in the exam? On the other hand, reviewing from the complete notes is a challenge. What should I do? Also, how did you prepare for essays? @HaarisZamir

Yes the combined cost of all levels can be expensive, but the $650 includes the the applied series which you don't need for the CFA. Return on investment is relative to each person - it's about what you make of it. You definitely don't need the CFA to succeed, and sounds like you're doing well anyway

Totally fair perspective

Depends how well you’ve covered the content so far. Main notes have a lot more detail, which is key if you want to properly learn it. If you want to refresh / review, HY only is fine

@@HaarisZamir Really appreciate this video and advice, it came at the perfect time for me.

I haven't used Schweser secret sauce but can vouch for IFT - don't need both

yep excellent for reviews in particular

@@HaarisZamir Can you pleaseelaborate how to approach high yield course?

I purchased it Videos are lengthy doesn't seems revisionary

@@Krutparmar l mean the curriculum is still big, and the review videos are usually 5-15 mins vs hours for the main lectures, so it’s a good review Go through them alongside the notes, maybe 2-3 per day. You should have covered all the curriculum again by August

CFA deffo a better option than another degree and yes can be a solid gateway - give you solid finance foundations + a strong signal in market

@@HaarisZamir Thank you very much for replying!!

That should be more than enough - you don't need to buy books. Also, the CFAI learning ecosystem basically has the textbooks in digital form, which you can use if you need more context - good luck

Thank you for the clarification.

Hey, did you follow the other tips in my video, particularly the following: - Buy notes and annotate - 2-3 reviews of the most complex material - As many practice Qs as possible in last month - Mocks under time pressure in last 2 weeks with review days in between Also, I have a learning techniques video coming up in a couple of weeks, which should help Good luck

@HaarisZamir thanks for getting back to me! If you had to pick one, what would you pick? Full notes or high yield from IFT.

print if you can

Hey, per the video: - 2-3 reviews of the most complex material - As many practice Qs as possible in last month - Mocks under time pressure in last 2 weeks with review days in between Good luck

@@asuuutos1061 Thank you !!!

The CFA is helpful, and can help you get certain jobs in finance from which you can build experience and move into better roles. It's difficult to give you a single answer. Work hard, try to build relationships, upskill through CFA and hopefully you'll crack it

Yes for sure - I used the lectures at L1 and they were solid

In that exam you can flag questions so it's easy to track which questions need revisiting

I will try to cover in a future video

This evolves every year so not in a position to share
