Quite a Few Topics Appears To Be New In Second Reading

CFA Level I
#1

I had done one entire reading of the topics and solved EOC questions. Now going back and looking at some of the topics, It seems i am reading those for the first time - what the heck? I remember understanding quite a many concepts while doing first reading. And now it seems i forgot many concepts. But Now little over 1 month to go…my stress level is increasing and it seems a gigantic task to do a thorough reading once again, solve EOC again, memorize formula… I have to also solve mocks…

How to manage studies well in short time left AND without panicking?

i’m also seeking advice with this!!

like you, i finished the first read and scored 80% or above on almost every EOC questions. I understood the material. I’m now going through doing notes for a 2nd time through and I’ve completely forgotten a large % of the material.

my plan is this: continue doing notes for entire 2nd time through (I know it’s a very lenghty process, but I’m giving myself a deadline of November 8th). That will leave me 4 weeks. I’ll then hammer questions for 2 weeks and start the memorizing process, then final 2 weeks do mocks.

i’d still like to hear other suggestions though…

Guys, don’t panic. You still have 6 weeks left.

If I were in your place, this is how I will revise. (read own notes + BB + EOC + memorize formula)

week 1-2 :3 short subjects each week (quant, portfolio mgt, ai, derivatives, econ, corp fin)

week 4: 2 subjects (FI, Ethics)

week 5: FRA

week 6: Equity

With mock exams every weekend in between.

I always put FRA and Equity in the last 2 weeks since these two carry the most weight in the exam.

Just relax. And take one step at a time.

Good luck!
