CFA1 Syllabus - How much does it change every year?

[ejsc421]

Hi,
I guess it depends year on year but how much does the syllabus change for CFA level 1?
I can’t see the contents changing dramatically… Does anyone know how it has been in the past?
Regards,

About 5% to 20% on average.

There is no fix percentage of change but it has been correctly bounded by S2000magician.

In my opinion the curriculum doesn’t change that much - just some pages, but nothing much. There’s quite a lot of details in this guide I read (link - http://www.timeprep.me/free-ibook-guide-for-cfa-exam/) .. It’s extensive and really detailed so check it out

I got hard copy books from 2012 to get a feel for the exam before I register before second deadline for 2015. Can I assume it would serve the purpose?

No, too much outdated.

I went through the chapters and authors and found them to be the same. I can see some things would be updated every year but I assume the fundamentals and most things wouldn’t change much. Am I completely wrong?

Does anyone know if there are any changes to the CFA 1 December 2015 syllabus compared to the last CFA 1 June 2015? Thanks
