Guys, i have been relying on curriculum and qbank uptil now. I also gave a shot at Elan for their mocks and really liked them. I still have got a lot to review so i’m thinking of getting an online review seminar. Both Schweser and Elan are offering them. Does anyone have any feedback on these and which one I should go for?
 
Would also like to know about Eleventh hour and Secret Sauce. Really looking forward to your replies so i can make a purchase decision.
 
I prefer Elan’s Eleventh Hour over Secret Sauce. I bought Secret Sauce last year for Level 1….it’s very good but Eleventh Hour provides a more thorough review of the material.

I’m a June 2014 candidate so I haven’t watched them yet. Others might be able to give you a proper feedback. Good luck!
Thanks iota! Will check these videos out tonight and post my thoughts.
 
I don’t have any experience with Elan but I bought the Final Review Pack from Schweser. I do like the Secret Sauce book just because it’s a quick reference that keep me from constantly digging through the massive CFA books to review concepts. The Schweser final review mock is challenging for sure…I thought it was harder than the CFA mock and I scored about the same on both. I try to limit how much 3rd party stuff I do though and stick to all CFA materials when possible so as not to get too used to 3rd party test questions. Overall, the Schweser final review is helpful if you have the money…but everything you need is there in the CFA materials.
 
I spent the whole day yesterday watching elan free review seminar on FRA. It was indeed very awesome. The lecture, even though it was quite fast-paced, was very thorough. Peter is really a great instructor!
Has anyone else tried their seminars?
