Curriculum Notes

CFA Level II
#1

I find the curriculum very hard to grasp.

I also feel like a lot of things are implied and often it complicates things more than they already are.

I am currently on FRA and a lot of things are implicit (No, im not talking about things repeated from level 1)

However, i do think that economics was relatively easier to understand from the curriculum.

I want to know if I am the only one who feels this way and whether I need to change the way I am studying.

I am not criticising the curriculum, I just want to know if i need to change the way I approach this.

Share your thoughts with me.

I havent chosen a prep provider yet, I am solely going by the curriculum for now.

Thanks

Start making flashcards, I got FRA with that. Infact, I prepared excel sheet with the relation of one thing to other, precisely a map. That way it will be way more easy. Also, practice the curriculum examples and at back questions. Good Luck!!

You need a more condensed study material because the official curriculum is very bulky and overwhelming. It says you are studying with Kaplan. I have not seen a better study source than Kaplan. Use their Study Notes which are more compact and are oriented at delivering the LOS rather than mastering the financial universe.
