each level

oo ok Thanks. Means still quite affordable.

Hey just wondering what's your thoughts on taking CFA. how essential it is in Malaysia. Cos' recently I found out. to finish the 3 levels is nothing, but to be really a Chartered Member then that's something. To be chartered, you need to go through having a mentor and work in a CFA affiliated company.

what are your thoughts?

It's a good credential for analysts (equity/fixed income), fund managers in buy-side and sell-side. Essential? No. There are those who are in the industry without taking the CFA Program. The program is rigorous, so I would not agree with "...to finish the 3 levels is nothing,...". To be a charterholder, you need two sponsors (preferably two CFA charterholders), not really mentors. There is no such thing as a CFA affiliated company. As long as your work experience meets the CFA Institute's working experience requirements, it should suffice.

Hi, is the text books from CFA Institute itself enough for exam? I plan to self-study for level 1...

And, do I need to buy any special calculator for CFA? I already owned a scientific calculator [CASIO fx-570ES].

Thanks.

Yes, it is sufficient, I do know few candidates passed all 3 exam by only study the text books.

U need a financial calculator, please refer to CFA website for the exam requirement.

Thanks for your answer.

level 1 can self study if you graduate with finance degree (basically revising ur degree with a little bit twist), level 2 go for classes unless you are discipline and well, really smart.

btw, when i go for level 2 classes, i was surrounded by cgpa close to 4 student, or first class honour students, and i m just a 2nd lower student only.

Hi, may I know how I get schweser note? Included in CFA exam fee?

Hey guys lets say I wanna do CFA level 1.

Agak agak how much do I need to prepare including exam and tuition fee. Let's say kasturi tuition.

Izit around 9k?

Exam CFA level 1= RM4.5k
Tuition CFA level 1= RM4.5k

Books = RM1k

So RM10k for CFA level 1?

and resit will cost me about RM4.5k as well?

how come additional 1k for books ? it is covered by cfa institute no?

resit is slightly cheaper cause u dont have to pay for the registration fee anymore (cheaper by 100usd i think)..

Hey guys i signed up for the June 2015 level 1, will the cfa notes be enough? Are the schweser notes really that good? Anybody selling second hand mocks pm me!
