Study Break - Plans for the evening of June 7th

I’ll start it off here. I ordered Schweser L2 Premium Package last week. It is expected to arrive this week. I figure after completing the exam on Saturday, I could get a jump on L2 while keeping all the L1 material fresh in my head. Here is what I was thinking for the evening; drink a few energy drinks while I watch the L2 videos. I’ll be diligently taking notes to ensure L2 is a slam dunk. Sunday I figure I’d get up early and hit the texts hard. If I feel good enough, I’ll crack open the Qbank CD to get going on drill and practice. Anyone else? I’m sure I’m not the only one here with those plans. Some of you though I predict will be getting started for the Sept 08 CAIA that evening.

I get to go to a funeral… how’s that for Sucks. I will be leaving the CFA test with my luggage.

^^^ wow…just wow I will be struggling to walk straight, hitting on every woman I see on Saturday night…not that your idea doesn’t sound exciting though… I won’t start studying for Level 2 until I am sure that I passed level 1, which gives me a few good months to relax before hitting the books again.

seriously, that’s got to be the worst idea i’ve ever heard. you must be leveling here?

I am thinking of reacquainting myself with an old buddy of mine, Jack Daniels. That, some pizza, and finally getting to play the xbox360 I bought last week sounds like a decent plan…of course it will be shortlived as I will pass out within an hour of starting.

Mr. Daniels never lets you down, unlike the CFAI.

I have a concert to go to that night. Unfortunately, no drinking. KJH, you are FOS.

driving range… actually that’s what i just did after getting a bad round of practice exams. but again, then dinner with friends that im forcing to come out after i hid away from them for a while. and then call up 'ol Daniels as well :P. and definitely no drinking for you Amber :(.

going to a birthday dinner with the gf after the exam. apparently, i still have a gf… anyways, no way am i even getting near L2 material until i find out my results. in the meantime, i’m going to be enjoying euro2008.

i HOPE for your sake you are kidding AND that you pass level 1… arent u tired of studying? Dont u owe it to urself … straight from the bottle summarizes my plans

My plans are too drink so excessively that I forget I even wrote the test!

I’ve already started on my Level 2 for June 09, he’s going to feel so behind once he realize how much he needs to learn. I feel like i’m already behind. Kind of pissed that i have to spend the saturday writing level 1. hey, what is this bottle summary method. Is it some new way of studying? I’m kind of lost for more efficient ideas on how to study… could you fill me in with this bottle? :stuck_out_tongue:

At least there’s one positive effect of taking CFA on my drinking habits - i won’t even come close to my budgeted expense. A few shots would do the trick, so i still might have some serious coin in my pocket when i wake up the following day in some ditch ;>

I will take out my pregnant wife for dinner and a movie as repayment for the past 4 months of not paying attention to her.

This is a total joke. I’m going out downtown Minneapolis immediatly after the exam. No promises as to how long I’ll last due to sleep deprivation. Sunday I’ll read a non CFA book. I ordered a new book from my favorite author today and plan on reading that outside on the deck coupled with a cool drink. Also I will be hitting up the driving range. Monday I’m off work going golfing with the MN CFA Society. We’ll see how ugly my game has become. Guess my sarcasm was undetected.

No way KJH, saw right through you. I am seriously considering a glass of wine after this one I have to say. I want to sit on my deck with a trashy magazine in the sun personally, on Sunday.

KJH you are the best!!! I seriously thought for a while CFA could harm mental health soooo bad))) I am glad this program is not that damaging:) Say hi to Minnesota! My sister lives there…)))

See you in Minneapolis (St. Paul for the exam), KJH
