Hej guys I have registered for the CFA L1 exam on Jun2009. I have Msc in finance and accounting, Bsc in accounting. I was reading the forum discussion and it seames that Schweser studynotes is highly recommended for CFA L1. But is the Shweser Ethics a sufficient study source for the CFA L1? You guys! do you have any sugesstion, recommend, or experience for the Ethics part? Many thanks for any suggestion and advise
Daily prayers.
For ethics most people recommend using the CFAI curriculum notes, as there are lots of examples and ethics is a finicky beast. You really need to have read the raw stuff - the information is not that compressible.
Hej Chrismaths what you mean by CFAI curriculum notes? Is it published by CFA institute, where can i get that??
The CFA material referred to are the readings books you receive from CFA Institute. It’s included in your registration fees. If you use the search function, you’ll find the CFAI materials vs. study notes question has been discussed probably more than any other topic.

Read the actual CFAI text and then knock out a ton of ethics questions after doing the ones in the book (move to Qbank or Passmaster).
