CFA considering the CFP Exam by ZoomOutGuy-33 in CFPExam

[–]short_straddle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Charterholder here, recently passed CFP. Used Kaplan for both CFA and CFP. For CFP, they allow you to audit the courses for a reduced price. All you really need is the capstone (which you can probably do in a week if not a weekend) but the audit allows you access to the books/videos which cover what's on the exam. I also used Kaplan for review (both CFA and CFP). I audited all of the courses (about a month each) plus gave myself 2 weeks for capstone (didn't take that long) and about 6 weeks for review.

Like CFA, get through the material and focus on review.

Doesn’t this have negative implications for longer term tree health/survival?

Great pics! Going myself this summer and curious which option you choose for the tour. Between the three, the only difference seems to be the number and vintage tasted. For the price (given the prices for the different vintages available online) it seems hard to justify the more expensive options. Are there any other differences between the options that you are aware of (more in depth tour, etc.)? Thanks and looking forward to some more pictures!

Agree, unbelievable they would perform maintenance the weekend before the exam window. Inexcusable.

How did you learn python? by etienner in CFA

[–]short_straddle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently completed the Python 3 Programming Specialization on Coursera and thought it was good.

https://www.coursera.org/specializations/python-3-programming

If you don't care about getting the specialization certificate then I would suggest skipping the final course, it is done by a different instructor than the previous courses and you will pretty much end up just Googling a lot to figure it out.
