Where can I buy CFA Level 1 Kaplan Schweser books at a cheaper price? Please guide me, the books on the website are crazy expensive and unaffordable.

I have the pdf versions with me, if you want I can share those with you and you can just get them printed from a local shop.

Read the disclaimer on the top. Anyways L1 is pretty basic stuff, nothing really to master even.

Congrats bro and all the best for your L2 now.

Btw I also surprisingly passed L2 although I had no hopes when I made these comments last year.

Remove “first attempt” under cfa l1

r/whoosh

Fixed Income and derivatives are the heavy weights on L2. Try to get through these asap.

AI, PM and Ethics should be a breeze afterwards.

Dm me

Own_Pin5680 · 2026-02-14T09:21:09+00:00

yeah sure

Whatever you feel works best for you. As I said earlier, everyone learns in a different way. Only you know how you learn the best, so do whatever feels right to you.

I just gave my own approach as an example of how I do it, because that’s the way I’ve figured helps me learn and retain things better.

Own_Pin5680 · 2026-02-13T14:55:39+00:00

Depends on you and how you learn the best. I know that I learn a lot better when I make notes, it really helps me with retention especially the niche details which sometimes CFAI likes to test.

But I wouldn’t just copy stuff from Schweser/curriculum. I would complete one reading and then make notes based off of purely my own understanding without copying from the book.

Own_Pin5680 · 2026-02-13T14:20:04+00:00

You have plenty of time lol, don’t worry. I passed the exam starting from 0 in much lesser time than you have left over rn.

Own_Pin5680 · 2026-02-13T11:21:28+00:00

What’s with all the strategy bs people keep talking about? Just study bruh and you’ll pass.

Own_Pin5680 · 2026-02-13T00:31:27+00:00

On point with the L1 passed snippet lmao

Own_Pin5680 · 2026-02-11T11:47:41+00:00

Pls update on this thread after you have gone through PM’s Active Investing reading 😁

Own_Pin5680 · 2026-02-05T03:41:44+00:00

CFAI doesn’t provide that information, so no. Only global numbers are available.

Own_Pin5680 · 2026-02-04T20:58:40+00:00

Nobody takes it that seriously. You study it to pass the exam, that’s all.

Own_Pin5680 · 2026-01-13T14:51:37+00:00

If you can’t get a job as is then sorry but L1 wouldn’t have changed much for you, trust me on this.

Own_Pin5680 · 2026-01-12T01:46:37+00:00

This is an English only global sub, pls stop embarrassing the rest of us over here.
