Just curious. which one do you think is a better option. CFA or MBA?I am currently an IT Professional who is very interested to get into Finance. Need some advice. Also can you tell me if I get into finance. Would they take into consideration the experience that I have in IT?
taking CFA is a very specialized field, whereas an MBA teaches u the umbrella scope of managing a business. if u like in-depth finance stuffs, cfa is a good choice for u. CFA won't look at experience if you have any sort of degree..Added on June 29, 2011, 9:33 am

Hi,
I am planning to take CFA level1 next year, most probably.
Just a simple question to ask,
for you guys that did CFA level1,
I find the sylabus coverage published on their website not quite clear. Just wanna clear some doubt:
Does CFA level1 in anyway cover Option pricing? Portfolio management? and/or Foreign Currency Securities?
Thanks.
Option pricing -- YesI am planning to take CFA level1 next year, most probably.

Portfolio Management -- Yes
Foreign currency securities -- only in derivative contracts.
just those 3 don't make up to 30% of your exam scores...if u plan to pass, just focus financial statement analysis, corporate finance & ethics. more than enough to get a pass for your level I.
