Hi, everyone… first, an introduction.
I just passed level I in June (2014) and lurked analyst forum religiously the last few months of study to try and really grasp all of the concepts. I will be sitting for level II in June (2015) and have finally decided to make an account on here as I am aware of the increase in difficulty of L2 and will probably have to ask some pretty specific questions over the next 9+ months to truly understand the material.
Now for my first question… of many.
I plan to start my studies in September, and wanted to give a snapshot of my study plan in hopes of getting some of your opinions - charterholders welcome, so that I can refine them prior to my start.
I plan to ease back into the craziness by reading Schweser’s Secret Sauce in month one just to get familiar with the topics and language of L2.
Then, beginning in October, I will spend six months - through March, reading Schweser Notes, watching their videos and doing both end of chapter questions form Kaplan and CFAI for every reading and LOS.
Finally, during my final two months of study - April and May, I will complete nine mock exams - six Schweser, three CFAI.
Does this seem like a solid plan for attacking L2, or should this plan be refined in some way? I welcome and appreciate any thoughts or advice that people can share. Thanks, in advance!
