I'm thinking of breaking up some of the CFAI study sessions to make my studying more interesting (so i don?t get too bored with one topic) and to ensure that I spend enough time on FRA & Ethics. I have no background in accounting or finance, but I?ve taken several intermediate and upper-level economics courses. One blog (konvexity) recommends the following schedule: FRA (5 days) Quant & Corporate Finance ( 5 days) Equity (5 days) Fixed Income (7 days) Quantitative Methods: Application (4 days) Derivatives (6 days) Economics (8 days) FRA (5 days) Portfolio Management (3 days) Alternative Investments (1 day) Ethics & Professional Standards (1 hr daily) At the end of 49 days, rest & revisit weak areas & reread ethics (11 days) Final Revision & Mock exams (20 days) What do you guys think? The only problem I see is doing econ at the end because having a good foundation in microeconomic theory should help with understanding financial concepts (time value of money, discount rates, opportunity cost, etc) |

I am using your study notes and I know of at least 5 other friends of mine who used it and passed the exam last Dec. Keep up your great work!
