Hey guys, any idea about whats new in June,2007 level I exam of CFA as compared to last year. |

I also want to know! Could anybody tell us the difference between 06 and 07? which topic is added and which topic is out of syllabus? So that I can borrow my fd's notes and just focus on those topics! There is no more time for us to read whole set of notes from the begining. Thanks a lot! |

Hi there, Level 1 - 2007 Curriculum Changes: As always, the Level 1 curriculum has changed significantly for the coming year. The rearrangement and rewriting of the learning outcome statements (LOS) has been extensive; dozens of new LOS have been added, and some old LOS have been deleted. Additionally, 25 new readings have been added, while others have been dropped. The following changes to the 2007 Level 1 curriculum represent a formidable challenge to Level 1 candidates. Ethical and Professional Standards The recommended procedures for compliance with the Standards of Practice are now required knowledge for Level 1 candidates New GIPSŪ LOS Quantitative Methods Many LOS have been reworded and a significant number have been moved to Level 2 Economics The Economics text has been changed. All of the readings for Microeconomics and Macroeconomics are new, as are the LOS Two readings for International Economics have been replaced with new material The majority of the LOS are completely new Financial Statement Analysis There is one new reading and six new LOS in Financial Statement Analysis Corporate Finance The readings are new and cover 26 new LOS The Corporate Governance and related LOS have been added to Corporate Finance Asset Valuation There are two new readings There are eleven new LOS and many that have been changed or reworded Portfolio Management This study session has only one new LOS! 43 days to go, good luck to everyone.

hi amitp you can find the study session breakdown in the CFA Institute's webpage Ethics 15% Quant 12% Economics 10% FSA + Corp finance 28% Portfolio mgt 5% Asset valuation 30% as you know that the exam is two sets of 120 questions, you can work out the time per question and number of question per topic. I divided nb of question/topic by the nb of LOS, this gives a good idea of the topics importance (revision time) I'm not posting my findings as I still don't know if I'm in the right direction. answer in 43 days Cheers Pierre-Alain |
