When they mean 300 hours of recommended studying... Does that mean 300 hours solely on just reading, or does that include time for practice problems/sets as well? or not?

For everything.

Also take that with a grain of salt, since the average says that it spent 300 hours to study, but the average doesn't pass the exam. So it can be less or more, depending on every person.

Yes. What quangtien said. 300 is just what they estimate. Many people spend a lot more time, many people less. Even the study programs all say to follow what you feel is best, but 300 is the average, so if you don't know your own study habits at least aim for 300 hours of prep.

not true!
cfa claims on its website that the average study time of SUCCESSFUL students is about 300 hours!

Hello. do you think that 300 will be the optimal time allocated? because I was counting on less

not true, 300 hour not even close to finish all the problems, reading and checking.

plus, the pass rate is lower than before now

I am happy to say that I passed! Your study notes certainly helped prepare me for what was the most difficult exam I had ever taken.
