@anytomdickandharyVery Helpful. I have cleared Dec L1 and would be giving June L2.Which question bank you were using for solving questions ??
If you can solve all questions from the main books provided by CFA Institute, you should feel 200% (yes, I mean 200%) confident. Since you are asking about question solving in Jan when the exam is in June, I believe you should have enough time and hence can solve problems from the main books. Schweser problems are too easy I would say and solving those does not guarantee you understand concepts well.
Take your time and solve qs from main book. I started studying in mid March last year, and had to rush through Schweser, where questions are quite easy. I then tried to solve main books problem (as many as possible), which at times are conceptual and can provide you with a reality check.

Thanks for your complement.
Regarding question bank for solving questions I have two key points to mention.
1. Going through the solved examples in the CFA books (you may not read the full chapter but the examples in between the chapters) are extremely helpful. And Problems at the end of the chapters are also very good, so if you have time you can try them. I due to lack of time solved it only for the chapters where I was not very confident after reading. Otherwise Schwezer Questions at the end of chapters are sufficient if chapter is easy.
2. I have come across few candidates who complain that trying to solve questions from the main CFA text takes a lots of time ....and as there is a lots of calculator punching involved. So over here I would suggest that try to solve the problem on MS excel sheets, where you dont waste time for punching the calc to solve the question. Remember that the main idea behind solving the questions is to check if you understand the concepts and not your number punching skills. Also for each Topic I used to maintain a separate excel sheet and solve the problems there..... this helped me revise the problems at later date in a easier way....also the workings on excel sheet are cleaner so revision is easier.
I have decided to do CFA this year. Need lots of help from you guys who all have cleared level one. Starting from notes, how to prepare and any other details what would lead me in the right direction.
I am not sure if any1 active in this thread or not.

I just cleared level 2. I had a hectic schedule,
but still managed it due to Arifs videos. This guys videos are the best
thing ever. You can finish a reading/chapter in half the time you would
otherwise take if you watch his videos. Explains every concept
beautifully. The videos area must have who dont have much time or those
who do not want to spend much time unnecessarily. If you want the videos
drop me an email at [email protected]
