It's as if you've gone through the journey we're going through a hundred times and you know exactly what we're facing day to day. Great content and great little details!
I really got demotivated sometimes when my performance in a QBank quiz (using Kaplan) was very bad, thinking I was not learning enough or that I was going to fail the Exam. What I did notice is that those really bad performances made me learn way more from the mistakes than from the reading themselves. Watching this video felt so reassuring because now I am no longer seeing Qbanks and BB questions as testing my knowledge but rather helping me consolidate it. Great Video Dr. Mark! Thanks a lot!
thank you so much sir. i have passed L1 under your coaching and followed this exact strategy and now revisiting this for L2 under MM coaching . immense value.
I have a master in finance and I like to read the material, didn't read all of course but still I read a lot, by the way I have a friend that have a PhD in finance and fail level one ( she was ill before the exam) the CFA cover a lot of detail that a PhD might not know in fact
Oi Diego, sou do br tbm e farei o lvl 1 em dez ou feb (tinha me inscrito pra junho, só que postergaram), eu e um outro cara que vai fazer o lvl 1 queremos criar um grupo no whats para trocar ideias e discutir questões, tem interesse? Já estudei cerca de metade do conteúdo.
@@ImBruces Entendi. Planejo estudar pelo material do CFA tambem. Unico receio é dos livro Kaplan serem mais direto ao ponto q o material mais extenso do cfa
Hey Mark, great video as always. One trap I fall into is taking too many handwritten notes to reinforce the content but it tends to slow me down tremendously. You may have covered this in a previous video but what is a good balance between watching videos/reading/taking handwritten notes in your opinion? Thanks in advance.
Hello i would like to ask a question. which 4 sub topics out of the 10 if i had to priotitize in terms of difficulty and importance on the exam should i purchase from MM website as individual sections? quant i think is a must. what else? i know there are his free level 1 videos but those are for 2017 and i do not know if they are still in the syllabus or whihc parts are and whihc parts arent. also consideing the fact that i have been takign a break from studies for a couple of years or more. this question is pertaining to cfa level 1
Good video except there is nothing new here that you haven't said in previous videos. You should link your study structure for each level in the description. I found those videos much more detailed and helpful. As always, thank you Mark!
That is true. But over time older videos get pushed down the list and I find myself answering the same questions all over again. So every now and then I do a video saying basically the same thing for newer viewers.
Mark I am starting my journey , I’m 28 and worried I’m coming into this abit late, I agree it’s unstructured learning which is a downfall , I’m also learning the actuary exams which I feel helps my learning with cfa
Hey mark, kinda late here on this video but I am a candidate utilizing your prep materials and was wondering where I could find the Q-bank questions on your website?
I see that the access to free level 1 2017 in the MM website which I like a lot will expire on Aug 2024. Is this true? Sadly, I'm yet to have the resources to buy the L1 course. I hope Dr. Meldrum will consider keeping the L1 access open 🙏
I am graduating with a degree in mechanical engineering in December, and I will also do the Level 1 Exam then (or on the next available date). How do I go about finding a job in finance after graduating?
Prof Mark, I recently discovered your website and your channel through the word of mouth and Reddit. I am appearing for CFA L1 Dec 2020, and really want to stick to your videos and free content on your website. All I wanted to ask is, the videos under the "Free Content" over your website are for the 2017 exam and would it be okay if I stick to them for the Dec 2020 L1 exam?? Where do I find the latest ones with curriculum changes covered??
Dr. Meldrum, quick question about cycling through the review videos every couple weeks. As I progress through the contents, do you recommend that I watch the review videos cumulatively? i.e. I finish quant, do quant review, then move onto fixed income, finish fixed income, do quant and fixed income review, then move onto derivatives, finish derivatives, and do quant, fixed income, and derivative reviews, so on and so forth?
I would cycle through them all, until I feel I don’t need the first set anymore, then the second set, and do on. Sort of like a rolling 2 or 3 section review.
@@MarkMeldrumhello Mr. Meldrum, hope you’re well. I’ve been using your course for level 1 2024, can you please further elaborate on your comment. What doed first set and rolling mean i didn’t catch that
Hi I am 34 and don't have finance background but want to choose CFA as a career growth tool. Would it be wise since I am doing fulltime job as well Please suggest
@@erphanayub7350 Go for it! I am a level 1 candidate and have completed QM and Econs, am halfway through FRA now. I am 32 with a full time job. My wife is pregnant and we are expecting our first child in June. It is DEFINITELY a time sink and for me the biggest struggle was to ensure that your family and friends are supportive. BUT even just starting out I have found so many real world applications for the knowledge the CFA provides and have applied multiple concepts in my real job.
Sir , thanks a lot for the info , but the videos on your this page are way old , of 2015 or 2017 ! So would it be ok to prepare 2021 exam with that only ? Hasn't the curriculum changed?
