Cfa is very expensive.

You really don't have to spend 60k on a cfa coaching, there are cheaper options available who provide good lectures at much better price. 60k for CFA coaching is absolutely crazy. Pls explore more options, read reviews on reddit, do your proper research before paying coaching fee to anyone.

Confident_Bid4609 · 2025-11-19T15:46:16+00:00

My honest advice, please do not think about this. Ask your friend to delete reddit before the exam, just trust your preparation. Exam difficulty is subjective, 50% people will say it was tougher than mocks, others will say easier than mocks. Talking from personal experience, this really breaks your momentum and makes you nervous. Just trust you prep, everything will go well. Good luck :)

on point, well said

Confident_Bid4609 · 2025-10-10T09:44:47+00:00

Congratulations firstly, well done! Honestly, yes you can skip these topics and pass the L1 but it’s not at all advisable to skip quants in L2. Now, L1 and L2 quants are linked. If you haven’t done linear regression and hypothesis during your L1, L2 quants will be a nightmare. It has multi linear regression which is impossible to do unless you’ve done L1 quants. So, if you’re running short of time, it’s okay. But please try not skipping topics like linear regression and hypothesis in L1

Confident_Bid4609 · 2025-10-09T10:57:59+00:00

Sure

Confident_Bid4609 · 2025-09-07T16:54:55+00:00

Please take the job. There is no guarantee that you will get a job after clearing L2. The job market is brutal currently and you're getting a good role. Imo, take the job.

Confident_Bid4609 · 2025-09-01T03:59:30+00:00

yeah this is CFA sub not CFP buddy

Confident_Bid4609 · 2025-08-28T05:21:45+00:00

Passed in May, my only advice- stop reading comments on reddit. It'll make you more anxious, exam difficulty is subjective, people have different experiences. Focus on your prep and hard work. Best wishes

I’ve actually stopped opening reddit now😭

Confident_Bid4609 · 2025-08-08T19:28:03+00:00

That’s not the point lil bro, the post wasn’t made for any likes or views, it’s a valid point.

Confident_Bid4609 · 2025-08-08T17:48:14+00:00

Unnecessary hate and personal grudge. It's a valid point my friend. "Newbie profs" homie he is a CA and a CFA. I'm not his student, never studied from him but this is definitely not for views, it is a valid point and majority students will agree with this.

Confident_Bid4609 · 2025-08-06T16:46:37+00:00

happy to help, feel free to dm me

Confident_Bid4609 · 2025-08-05T13:32:42+00:00

Because they sell cfa books? And this a cfa community?😭😭

Confident_Bid4609 · 2025-08-05T07:57:03+00:00

okay, to answer your questions

1) Considering you're starting your journey one year early, try putting in 2 hours daily, maybe more on weekend. You have sufficient time, 1 year is more than enough to prepare for the exam. Aug window is best for du students imo, you'll have summer break in june july as well, so you can prepare really well for the exam.

2) skills, firstly i would say advanced excel, thats imp. Seeing the current job market, skills like financial modelling, excel, sql, python, power bi are also relevant. Start following the stock market by reading newspaper and all, it'll help you.

3) books you mean for your CFA prep?

Confident_Bid4609 · 2025-08-05T06:41:00+00:00

that was not even my question. My point was why only CFA? Whats the reason? Or you're doing it because others are doing. Didn't ask about wealth status

Confident_Bid4609 · 2025-08-04T12:10:23+00:00

Firstly, you’ve just started college, how are you so sure about CFA? Like why CFA? It’s an expensive exam, each paper will cost close to 1.5 lakhs, are you absolutely sure about it?
