I could relate to you so much. Although I am just starting out and like you said I haven't registered but got enrolled with classes and bought materials. I had applied for scholarship if I get scholarship then I will give it in August or else in November. My biggest fear is of maths otherwise I'm really good with investment related subjects.

[@karanjain1467]

Hello , Karan here . Quick Intro - As of now I'm a 12th passout and I'm preparing for CFA Level 1 . And I'm confused from what study material should I prepare? 1. Schweser or 2. Curriculum Schweser - Easy to study Readings get completed in few hours . But the content is less and not Fully covered and I think we can't rely on this book . But many people have passed by studying through Schweser. Curriculum - Best knowledge material. Lengthy material Takes lot of time and sometimes even days to complete 1 reading only . But the book is reliable . So what should I prefer ?

[@Cartoonandfun]

Few of my friends who have cleared the CFA level 1 shared that in exam only basic stuff is asked, no need to spend much time on difficult topics and mostly very less sums and numerical questions are being asked, like one should be clear with the base which would be helpful for level 2 and 3 So is it true or not

[@abdulahadm]

I'm looking for a study partner for Feb 2025 for accountability purposes and to curb procrastination. Studying for cfa can get lonely at times so I guess that would help. P.S Just gave my August 2024 exam and I just don't feel good about how it went. I'll still continue my level 1 studies instead of just waiting for results. I'm gonna try and give it in February 2025 again.
