oh I am 23. And while studying for CFA exams (Cleared L3 this year) I took part in 3 sports (athletics, swimming and rowing) at university (Awarded university colours for one sport during all 4 years of university), worked for the worldâs largest student run organization (AIESEC) and also had/still having a wonderful social life plus a steady relationship. Just started working in equity research Just because a few Americans are lazy like you donât criticize all the youth. And trust meâŚI do know a few American youth who are even more all-rounders than me.
Topic âPassed 3 level at 1st attempts b4 23â is pompous & reeks of d fundamental problem of d human race.
The problem has always been d desires to assert superiority & to dominate others ⌠racism and wars are extreme cases bearing same face with d boyâs boasting.
23, no experience, overconfident, self-entitled, always-looking-for-praise, upstart need to chill out. We were all young and we all thought we knew our industry way too soon. Anyonene experienced finds it annoying because if you get a fire lit under your A$$, youâll have no idea how to react and how to actually form your argument and get the problem solved. That is only learned by experience.
So, good luck and congrats, you earned your charter way too young, and because youâve never applied anything youâve learned to actual problems and most of the CFA knowledge that you gained, youâll probably lose because youâve never had to internalize it or use it besides an exam format.
I agree. The fact that I have 10 years of experience helped me determine what CFA Material I need to retain going forward. Of course, I donât remember formulas, etc. but I know the sections to know that will guide me in future instances. If I were 23 yo, I would have just learnt a bunch of material and largely have forgotten it by the time I was in my upper 20âs and lower 30âs when you really start applying it. Thatâs why MBAâs are usually upper 20âs and lower 30âs in the U.S.
