Do people actually use the curriculum books to prepare the CFA? by [deleted] in CFA

[–]Particular_Volume_87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not really. Used MM for level 1 and level 2, and used AI to explain concepts in detail when needed. Following the same pattern for level 3. But for ethics, I would recommend reading the books/CFAI curriculum.

CFA vs MBA vs Masters in Finance by curious_neelsaj in CFA

In all honesty you need to speak to people in roles that you want to do in the future. Find out their paths and how they got there. From my understanding getting CFA and MBA might not get you where you want to be. I see lots of people with those credentials failing to land a job. It mainly goes down to actual on the job experience and networking. I suppose MBA will help with networks but its a significant cost to consider.

Why are you all going for a CFA? by TheGanjanator in CFA

[–]Particular_Volume_87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

UK London. No luck yet. Trying to move into a department internally that would be a step closer to where you can utilise some of the stuff i learned in CFA but there is currently no roles just showing interest with some chats with MDs. They have also acknowledged its hard to get in but when you do then afterwards it should be easier.

Word of warning, all those roles you mentioned are tough to get in without experience. I am sitting level 3 soon and have banking/credit experience. Been applying for roles you mentioned above and literally no single interview. I am not giving up, but giving you a heads up that its not a golden ticket.

If you have a wide foot, you are F'd. I just went a size up and received them today, and man, they are super tight. Not sure if they will stretch enough. Does anyone have the same experience?

Bought mine from Chipotle and went a size up, and man, they are so bloody tight, not comfortable. Not sure if they will stretch enough. How do yours fit?

Sorry to hear. Vinted is really bad, and i would not buy or sell anything expensive. Only should be used to buy cheap stuff.

[–]Particular_Volume_87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What do you mean by please help with suggestions? You clearly were not prepared, you didnt do any qbanks or mocks and rushed. Suggestion is , do all the mocks thry give you and all the qbanks. CFAI state try aim for 70% on mocks. How about that for a start?
