What are your thoughts on which Level of the exam is the most difficult? Some people have told me Level 1 since it takes so much time to get used to the CFA curriculum and studying/preparing. Most others, however, state that its either Level 2 or 3. I am interested in what you think and more importantly - why you feel one Level is more difficult than another. Thanks!
I’ll let you know in 6 weeks.
It varies in time. When you are at level 1, it is most difficult as lot of new material and you are not used to giving up ‘life’ and making compromises…
When you get to level 2, above part is not challenging but you get others stuff where you need to read a mile long list of topics and need to grasp a mile deep level of understanding…
When you get to level 3, you have overcome above 2, but then there is another challenge ( which I won’t detail here just to save you from all the frustration of giving up CFA at all) but in short you start to lose your patience…
So don’t waste your time worrying about different levels… just try to cross the bridge that is ahead of you now…

if I pass L3, I’ll say L2 was the most difficult. If not, I’ll be forced to say L3, as I studied about the same amount for each.
No discouragement intended, but L1 isn’t usually considered the hardest level by those who have gone full cycle.
The most difficult exam is the one you’re about to take.
Exactly my thought as well

To OP, it’s GIPS - GIPS is what he’s talking about…
