谢谢Emma1118 前辈的回答 不过, 我有个香港来的同学告诉我,CFA在香港不算什么,金融业,人手一张.. 那好像也有点夸张 >_< 我今年5月时才知道有CFA这种考试,我认为比MBA适合我.. 问了教我投资概论的老师怎么考,以下是老师的建议 Here is the information you requested on the CFA exam from a friend who is currently studying for the exam.
There are a number of CFA exam review course providers; the two primary ones are Stalla and Schweser. Both are very good and are staffed with highly competent instructors, and both offer full courses in classroom settings, live online and archived, and CD format. Choice of format should be based on personal preferences. Some prefer the weekend live instruction, which, for the Bay area, is normally held in San Francisco for both Stalla and Schweser. I preferred to spend the drive time to SF studying, and opted for a CD course from Stalla for Level I where you can pause and re-review sections at your leisure. I found Stalla's text books to be more detailed and Schweser's practice exams to be more challenging and difficult, which is a big help in preparation for the actual exam.
Important: The CFA Institute now provides their own text book volumes when you sign up to sit for an exam. I would use these as primary readings and supplement your study with a Stalla or Schweser review course and question bank.
There are study groups that form locally. Most are CFA Institute members. You can find out about study groups through CFAInstitute.org.
The CFA charter is the gold standard in the financial industry and is an extremely worthwhile endeavor. Holding the Charter is more valuable than your average MBA; however, it takes an extreme commitment to obtain. Depending on your academic background, your study for a June exam should begin in December. You must draw up a study schedule that has you complete your readings one month prior to the exam. The final month should consist of an intense review of all sections using practice exams, practice questions, and notes. The Institute recommends 350 hours of study time to be prepared for the exam. It might require more for non-finance undergraduate degree holders. You literally must be prepared to put many aspects of your life on hold if you are working and studying for the exam. Level I is offered twice a year; Levels II and III only once a year. Currently, the average is 5 attempts to successfully pass all 3 exams. Best of luck! |
