Guys, I need some advice. I keep forgetting things and finding myself having to re-read chapters again and again as if I never read them before. I need to start working exercises, but thought that I could probably leverage the secret sauce for a one day or so review to help me focus on main topics… Is anyone using secret sauce for his review? Do you guys think it’s useful? Is it worth $99?
Yes, I reviewed Derivatives, really worth every $1 you pay.
It’s worth it. before I shift 100% to doing problems, qbank etc. I plan to invest 2-3 days to review all the material. I have done so up to SS9 at around End of February and will do the last 9 SSs today and tomorrow. I like the book because I can write down all the individual mistakes I make and remind myself of not doing them again.
The Secret Sauce is worth its weight in gold.
have been reading secret sauce everyday on the subway since i got it. I’m honestly so sick of reading it, i could vomit. But it has really, rally helped on a couple areas - especially portfolio management
If you own a $1000 product for Lvl II from Schweser for 2010 , ask for a discount . I got mine for $70 + tax & shipping
Its well worth it. I walk to work reading it in NYC. Yea, I’m that cool
I used it a lot for level one, and so far it’s been helpful for level two.
SS is very helpful in the weeks before the exam.

Yea, I’m that cool Funny you mention that, because I’ve been reading it on the subway and the PATH. The only time I saw another candidate studying during my commute was someone going through their homemade flashcards.
I take the train to Stamford and I think half the train is studying
Thanks guys. I’ll order it today for sure.
I swear by that book. Great way of distilling the information down into a concise readable format. Surprised Stalla doesn’t have an equivalent, it’s really the only thing that Schweser beats them hands down at.

Stalla is upping their game this year with what seems to be a Secret Sauce equivalent. The only problem is, they haven’t released it yet.
I thought I caught wind that they were releasing it today…?
This the link to the Stalla version. I don’t know if it’s available yet. For $50 seems like a better deal than the Secret Sauce assuming the content is comparable. http://www.stalla.com/cp/products-detail/essential-facts-formulas.cfm
Hi, what is the best link to purchase secret sauce?
http://www.schweser.com/cfa/cfa2.php Look for secret sauce towards the bottom. I didn’t know about the Stalla version… Anyways, I ordered SS earlier… What’s an additional $120 compared to the countless hours of studying. This is a perfect example of an inelastic product.
Man… I’m still deciding if I can justify $125 (including shipping) for this.
Do you guys think reading over the summaries would be equivalent. Being unemployed, I’m trying to control my cash flows as much as possible.
