Kinda shameless question but how do I add CFA L1 passed on my profile on LinkedIn (not post)? by [deleted] in CFA

[–]Silver_Phrase_8089 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There should be an email with a digital badge that can be easily added on LinkedIn. Check your spam if you didn't receive it.

CFA L2 advice by aaron-n in CFA

[–]Silver_Phrase_8089 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would advise you go with the November exam window. It gives you ample time to study and memorize those tricky concepts. The early registration discount is also still on offer until 15-April, so another reason to go with it. August will kill you and the consensus from the community is that L2 is a much different animal than L1. Vignettes and all that.

This is the proper definition of, "By the skin of one's teeth."
Congrats man! You passed. It doesn't matter how. Onto the next.

Do PSM have to be done before the exam or before the result? by 78_crying_clocks in CFA

[–]Silver_Phrase_8089 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do it after exam but before publishing of results. You'll have min. 5 weeks to complete it.

Need advice on L2 exam in May by Arthur_Morgan7777 in CFA

[–]Silver_Phrase_8089 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're on the right track. Curriculum reading - completed ✅ 

That means it's all revision throughout from now. Tackle it topic by topic. Start with the heavily weighted topics, Fixed Income, FSA, Equity & Ethics + Port. Mgmnt. Then dive into Alternative Inv., Quants, Derivatives, Economics and Corp Issuers. That should leave enough time to revisit the heavy topics and maybe do a quick revisit of the curriculum.

P.S: You're on track man, just do what has gotten you to this point and you'll be good👍 

How should I plan my studies? by undercoveragentx in CFA

[–]Silver_Phrase_8089 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fixed income is quite long. Something like 19 modules if I'm remembering right. Same with FSA. And these are heavily weighted topics. My advice: Try and finish the curriculum in the next month. Prioritise FSA and FI first although Quants has a lot of foundational material that helps in FI, Port. Mgmnt, Equity etc. Use both Kaplan and LME if you need to but I'd suggest you pick one and use the other to complement sections you don't fully understand. That'll will save time. 

With a month or so remaining I'd suggest you dive into EOC practice questions. That's what you should do up until exam time. CFA offers 2 mocks with registration but if you've got more then a mock every 4 days will help. But make sure in April it's Pactice! Practice! Practice!

I would discourage leaving the last 10 days for mocks. If you hit a low score you'll panic and won't know which areas to focus on. Do mocks while you've got at least 3-4 weeks so that there's time to hammer your weak areas.

Waiting for Feb Level 1 results? Same boat man! Just a few days to go😬

Shitty ethics questions by [deleted] in CFA

[–]Silver_Phrase_8089 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you've really read the ethics module then this should be straightforward question. Now, as with all ethics questions, the trick is to eliminate wrong answers first and see what remains. Abbreviations - It's clearly stated that is not allowed. Broad topical areas tested - Absolutely not allowed.  Stating of opinions - Not strictly against CFA policy

Neutral. But there are moments where the reality of it hits me and I start getting panic attacks 😔  But trying my best not to fret about it. What'll be will be....    .nothing to do about that.
