@kunalicici Hi Kunal ! I am based in Chandigarh. I had not taken any classes, but I subscribed to Video Lectures of Kaplan for L2. These are really helpful and you play them repeatedly and you can select which concept to repeat.

I'll try and write a detailed post on my study plan and my experiences. Maybe they are of help to you.

Guys, I want advice. Does it make sense to do CFA after you have experience or even a graduate can do it? What I want to know is, will a person without job experience learn anything since he may not be able to understand the implication.

yes, a person without job experience will be able to understand the implication..there is no doubt that job experience will make great difference but a fresher even can opt for it..
i myself will be appearing for the exam being a fresher ...

@abcdelhi Hi ! Frankly speaking it does not make a difference, whether you do with or without job experience. What you need for a tough nut like CFA is deep commitment and self motivation. You can start with CFA whenever you have tons of both. . . Good luck.

PS: You need 4 years of full time work-ex in investment management to earn the charter.

@iwantgovtjob

Beta of SML is not 1, SML is plotted against beta and all the portfolios lying on SML are compared against beta because beta of 1 implies riskless profit.

Hi, I lost original CFA L1 mock exams downloaded from various websites as my hard disk crashed a few days back. Can any one pls share the mock exams issued by CFA institute from previous years? I would really appreciate if some one could share those. Many thanks, KV

Hi,

I have just completed my MCom and planning to appear for CFA Level 1 in June 2013. Would it be helpful as a first degree? I mean most pple doing CFA have already some other professional qualification. Would it be fine to do it as the main professional qualification? Or should i look up some other degrees?

Please help urgently as i plan to register before Sept 19, 2012
