A lot of the derivatives reading in the CFA level II text is “optional”. Is it just there for our review? I’m guessing we are required to know it all. It seems like it was all stuff from level I. Thanks for any feedback.

I’d like to hear the answer to this as well.
anyone know?
I would call the optional sections “assumed knowledge”.
Those who skipped CFA textbook and read schweser ONLY to pass Level-1, will most likely need the optional section. Atleast for FRAs.
Good luck.
gotcha thanks
