How far into studying for Level II are you so far? I’ve just completed Ethics and just finishing up the Schweser Item sets. I have also read through the first quant reading.
I haven’t started yet. If you’re studying for next June, today. #stopthatbro
youre a real piece of work Trojuli
I’m finishing Alternative Investment.
I am done - doing practice tests right now. Do I have enough time?
I planning to do my 2nd mock exam on saturday night. I think I’m a bit too slow though. Please can you advise ?
everytime!!! LOL
Finished Fixed Income and the first SS of Derivatives. Plan to finish derivatives this month and then really crush Quant and FRA in September.
planning to start frm oct… so many guys have started so early…
Im done with the curriculum except PM so ya’ll gots to catch me if you cans
I finished studying all sections this past May, but then I failed the test.
i am doing FRM part 1 now so don’t anticipate starting for Level 2 until December!! I started really early for Level 1 (in September) and I did really well (passed all sections >70). I started so early as i literally had 0 finance background before this. My score in L 1 has lifted my confidence though i realize L2 is much harder. Anyway now i 've made the decision to study for FRM part 1 i cant go back. Also - even though i will be studying from December and not earlier now, as i will be in the industry i will need to make super effort to do well b/c it will actually matter! It would have been easier if i didn’t have exams in October in the context of my MSc in Mathematics study, but hey! c’est la vie!!
??? I haven’t even registered for Level II yet… Methinks some people are stressing it too much.
i think your starting date is a lot less relevant than how long you study per week… and more importantly how effective your study methods are. Unless you’re someone who exceled in university (atleast a very quick learner)…starting early can’t hurt if you just take it easy and not burn out
Yeah, its really all about discipline. If you can work a 10-12 hr day, then hit the books for 3 hrs once you get home 7 days a week, you’re in good shape even if you start in March. I have the bad combination of a crappy memory and lack of self discipline. 3rd time’s a charm!
Yeah I’ve only started early due to the banter about Level II ive heard on these boards… I started in around November last year for Level I and scored well. I might try the FRM Level 1 in November 2012 as right now I want to put all my focus on Level II.
Haha starting now is a joke. Enjoy the end of the summer and live a little.
I have finished Quant and now digging into Econ
Well its winter here so there’s not much to enjoy… maxmeomeo did you find quant difficult to get through?
It’s gonna take me sometime to get over the disaster in level 2. I hope second time is a charm. Cheers!
