Have anyone of you got the schweser videos for CFA L1 2013? Pls let me know.

@shruti.shinde What else have u completed?

Start with TVM and Quants if not yet done. O you can go ahead with Economics.

@kushalagg i hv completed derivatives also....ok then... i'll start with TVM..

@saikcumar For heavens don't do it....Just push yourself a lil harder and you'll sail thru.....plus for l2 you'd need the extra hours you'd get from jun '13 to jun '14

Are Schweser notes enough for clearing CFA level 1 exam???I'll be giving the xam on Dec'13....
yep they should be enough to graze past the level 1....you'll face bouncers when you get to l2...so sticking to the prescribed curriculum would do you good....esp for l3 when you've to tackle essays.

@shruti.shinde Tax part in FRA is important. 100% percent testable exam material. Refer institute books for better understanding
Tax part in FRA is very important and testable exam material, but from my personal experience i can say fortunately for L1 they dont ask much questions from that part, you can expect at max 6-7 questions (both sessions togather). Instead they put more foucs on 4 chapters of Study session 8.
I'm a CA, just registered for CFA & planning of clearing level 1 this June. HOw much time would it take for me to go thru the material given that I have Schweitzer 2013 PDF.

History is replete with examples of people who have cleared it with 2months of prep. If you think you will be able to do it, time is always sufficient.

Laxmi Xerox, Vile Parle Mumbai - They provide scheweser notes for CFA & FRM.

Yes, The 2nd deadline is 13th Feb. For charges pls check the cfa website.

Is there any other means of payment for the exam (other than credit card) ... pls do reply...

As far as I know, I do not think there is.
May be others can comment on this.

@Pheonix_001 Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Diner창€™s Club, and JCB
Personal check, corporate check, or bank check (i.e., certified check, cashier창€™s check)*
Money order or postal order (including Western Union)*
Wire or ACH (contact [email protected] for instructions)*

i Think CREDIT cards are the easiest payment method.. not to mention payment has to be in dollars.

those who are done with the registration:can the address be changed to a diff one later, if i wish to do so? actually while trying to update the address i'm getting a message "Sorry, we could not find a match for your address." with a cautionary dialogue underneath "if accepted, your address may be undeliverable". does the address used by cfai for correspondence & the profile address need to be same?
Enter the exact address where you want your books to be delivered and ignore the message "Sorry, we could not find a match for your address". Your place may not be there in their system, but the courier guys would know your place, so enter the exact address.
There is no point in changing the address later because only books would be delivered to that address all further communications are done through mails
Hope that answers the questions
