Did any of you pass level 2 with Schweser notes only?

CFA Level III
#1

Thanks and good luck with your exam!

#2

Yep. I had some secret sauce on the side too.

#3

Yes, the Treynor fiasco shortcoming notwithstanding, they were more than sufficient.

#4

yes, i pretty much stuck to schweser… + schweserpro question bank

#5

Pure Schweser notes. No q-bank, no secret sauce. I’d advise reading the CFAI text practice questions as a supplement, however.

#6

qbank + schweser + online tests. I have to say that online CFAI tests were VERY HELPFUL

#7

Same as joemontana. the CFAI text practice questions are key, but used only schweser notes (no qbank, etc).

#8

I did only schweser and the Qbank. And did tons and tons of Qbank. But ya, just schweser.

#9

Well as long as you have the CFAI books anyways I would recommend doing all the end of chapter problems from those. Besides that you should be fine with Schweser. I used only Schweser and felt relatively well prepared. Prepared enough to pass the exam.

#10

Yes.

#11

100% Schweser materials and passed. Didn’t even break the bindings on the CFAI material.

#12

I wish Schweser materials alone would be enough for L3 but that doesn’t seem to be the case…

#13

surely lots of people just use schweser and pass?

#14

yes… Level 1 & 2… Schweser notes only. Level 3… Schweser notes + the last 6 year’s actual CFA exam papers. It’s sufficient but not ideal, unless you are pressed for time.

#15

Yes. Only Portfolio Management was not enough

#16

Treynor Black will forever be imprinted in the minds of Schweser users… CFAAtlanta Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > Yes, the Treynor fiasco shortcoming > notwithstanding, they were more than sufficient.
