I Have seen the book of Laxmi Xerox the Paper quality is not good. and the font of the alphabets are to small :nono:. I have got the books from the Mahakali Book center . Their Paper quality is good and the front is also readable. 😃 .. So thanks for recomending me Laxmi Zerox....

Hi svswift.. There is pristine in T. nagar and Eten CFa in Anna nagar and adyar i guess.. Finstructor conducts some classes through skype i guess from mumbai. As far as i know only these things.. Regarding my plans. Right now i am not in a mood to join coaching classes. One reason is dey charge too much around some 20k and other i cannot allocate time right now.. But may be my perceptions might change if level 2 syllabus is too tough to grasp.. Do let me know if you join any classes..
cheers..
Guys how's the quality of Mahakali Xerox? How's the font size etc.?
I have seen the Jawahar book depot copy in Delhi but it was really poor quality.
Hi Puys,
I am appearing for CFA L2 in 2012. Just wanted to summarize the information I have maybe of some help to you.
2011 CFA L2 PG FORUM
http://www.pagalguy.com/discussions/cfa-level-2-june-2011-25056825
Analystforum, PMed
FinQuiz - CFA Prep Provider, CFA Practice Questions
Jist of the information which I found on internet
Schweser though not as good as they were for L-1 is still enough in L-2 for one to clear. Many have cleared using only Schweser. But you wouldnt be completely confident coming out of the exam. So if you have the time go for CFA texts. Else go through Schweser+ EOC questions in CFA texts (apart from ethics and a few topics which you dont understand in Schweser)
Else you can go for a mix of Schweser+CFA
Schweser- Quant, Economics, PM, AI
CFA-Ethics, Derivatives, Equity, FRA
Fixed Income , CF(except the theory part) can be done from either depending on the time you have
First of all, avoid the bully strategy (ie. studying a lot, incl. taking holidays, right before the exam, and not long before) instead prefer studying constantly a couple hours every days (wake up one hour earlier and sleep one hour later) and more intensively the week end, during a longer period (learned content will go to long-term memory rather than short-term memory)
register as soon as possible (ie. september) to get the best discount!
start studying 31 weeks prior to exam date
try to learn 2 study sessions every 3 weeks (ie. 1.5 week per study session), ie. 18 * 3 / 2 = 27 weeks. For some sessions, one week will be enough, for others two weeks might be necessary (esp. if youre under hard time at work)
hint: try to go a little bit faster than 1.5 week per study session since you might need the equivalent of 4 standalone weeks to review already finished books each time you finish a new book
use the last 4 weeks to:
review all summaries from all books
redo all exercices from all books
perform mock-exams
review your areas of weaknesses (identified with mock-exams and redone exercices)
perform sample exams
review all summaries from all books
youre ready!
Whatever your profile is (full time|part time), you should try your best to avoid learn & forget effect.
Do the following:
study regularly (every days even if its just to review already learned content)
prior to starting your new readings, review the (summary of) last 3 readings(ie. a moving average)
each time you finish a book, review all readings within all previously finished books (recently finished one included)
redo all the exercises from the entire book finished right before recently finished book
These all information is not my own. Just copy pasted from some or the other place 😁
