Schweser was great as it makes it possible to wrap your head around all of the material (due to reduced amount of detail), so when you go into CFAI (if needed) you won’t get overwhelmed as you will know majority, and it’ll be just matter of mastering some of the details. I still think a lot of people here will pass even if they have big doubts now.
