June 2016 Exam Prep

[bengraham]

Hey guys,
I just got my books from Kaplan (I have books from CFAI as well) and I do not really know how to manage the time to study. I currently reading ethics as I am writing this, I have been reading this topic for 2 weeks until now. The reason it takes longer time because currently I am employed full time and it is hard to gain concentration to studying after going back home from 8 hours of working. Still, I keep pushing myself to read the book at least 1 hour before and after working (more hours after work). And there is that little procrastination when I am about to start reading (sorry!)
Any advice on how should I do this? How to plan my study so I will be confident enough when I am sitting on the exam day?
Cheers!
p.s: sorry for the bad grammar

Your english is good enough
Look, we all have the same problem, most of us work full time and have to study on week days and weekends, and yes! Procrastination is our most dangerous enemy.
For L1 I just read all books and practiced questions on each chapter. After finishing all readings went to q bank and mock exams. That worked for me, but I managed my time bad, almost got no time for mock exams.
Now, I’m on L2 and had to evolve my strategy and time management. What i did is to create an excel sheet with metrics that should help me to keep in eye my completion track, calculated the number of pages need to read, provisioned good time for mock solving, for review, the number of questions from schweser and cfai books, Qbank and mocks. Calculated the average # of pages should read per day in order to cover all books in the prescribed time. Since I have all this metrics, I dont get lagged more that 3 days in the obliged pages, this archive helped me to go back to the long-term sustainable path every time. Maybe you should create yours and you will see a very good improve in your study.
Good luck!
