[HELP] CFA III Study Guideline (where to start, what book, etc.?)

sorry if this has been discussed before…

  1. but im a little bit confused with Level III format…

unlike level 1 and 2 where the titles of their books target specifically each exam topic, for example level 2 volume 3 covers corp finance, volume 4 covers equities, volume 6 covers derivative and port management, etc.

but in level 3, the naming is so confusing…for ex, which exam topic does book 2 cover (behavioral finance, individual investors, and institutional investors)? is it equities? derivatives?

  1. do you recommend me to use Schweser notes? how bad or good can they be?

  2. what’s the recommended study pattern? should i start with volume 3 and 4 first (seems like they’re the most important ones)?

thanks… yes i havent started (haven’t even figured out the format really well)… good luck everyone…
