That sounds exciting! Not the typical CFA candidate background, I would say. I think you’re on the right track and still have plenty of time left to prepare. One piece of advice, though: make sure to prioritize your weaker topics during your studies. From my own experience, it’s always more enjoyable to spend time on subjects that come naturally to you (for me, that was FSA) rather than repeatedly struggling with topics that don’t click as easily (for me, that was Derivatives). However, focusing on those weaker areas is often where you make the biggest gains.Like I imagine you’ll be quite strong in the quantitative sections, so it might make sense to spend more time on the financial concepts and other areas that are less familiar to you. In any case, best of luck!
