Hello AF community,
After some time realizing that the June exam would no longer be possible, I decided to officially defer the exam from June to December. That being said, I went from feeling very ‘behind’ in studying to being ‘way ahead’
I have already completed all of the Wiley/Elan guide for FRA (as well as BB and EOCs from CFAI text) and covered most of Ethics as well.
My schedule is quite hectic March-April-May and a small vacation planned for early June. With that being said, I would like the community’s opinion as to the following action plan for an extended study period:
Elan/Wiley has 5 guide books of which I have covered FRA (1 full guide) and about half of the first guide (Ethics) which leaves 3.5 guide books to cover (4 if we count a re-read of ethics from the CFAI book).
The plan would be starting this month in March to cover the remaining 4 guide books over the next 4-5 months (although that would mean full coverage by the end of June, it is likely there will be spillover into July.. possibly end of July) for a full run through of the material.
The review would cover Elan videos, re-reading of notes, Elan questions, CFAI BB and EOCs. I have time to dedicate to the process now with this extended study plan. By the first run through of the first review (around July) I will have then have July/August-October to review material, especially the stuff I struggled with. October/November will be dedicated to mostly practice exams. I will have 2-3 weeks off of work to study for the exam in December.
