Not sure why I have not seen much jobs on jobstreet from IB stating CFA as a requirement.

Do they not advertise jobs that require CFA on jobstreet?

I am not Kasturi's student but I don't think Kasturi is able to register the exam for you. You can only do it by yourself as Sunway told me that CFA does not permit tuition provider register on behalf of student. They can only register by themselves. smile.gif

Sunway as in Sunway Uni? Are you taking CFA classes there or elsewhere?

CFA is really a professional paper whereby each and every single little tiny bits of details you also have to know. I'm starting to feel worried for my December Level 1 exam now.

r u self study or taking classes at sunway?

I am going to pay for my enrolment and exam fees this weekend. Pay by credit card rite, and got any assessment before we enrol?

I just got all my study materials like 2 weeks ago & I have been real busy running around; not yet started.

How on earth I'm going to finish everything by end of October.  shocking.gif

I'm screwed


Added on September 7, 2011, 8:57 pm

But the classes in Sunway already started. And, no they don't accept credit card. It's only cash/cheque.

Nope, there will not be any assessment before enrolment but your degree certificate is needed. (Note: if you just finish your degree recently, can tell them you will give it to them later)

I'm taking weekend classes in Sunway.

Good luck to you
*
Perhaps you had misunderstand my question. I mean payment to cfa not sunway/kasturi.
cheque/cash? do u think I still can made the payment before their first deadline 21st sept?

Send cheque to US?

Sorry for asking it here cox i cant check their website it seems down or server busy

rclxub.gif Yea sorry I misunderstood your question.

You can only use Credit Card to register CFA examination. (I'm not sure about other medium but I used Credit Card)

Well, of course you can. But you better consider properly before sign up because if you do not have time to finish everything (like me now doh.gif) then it'll be wasted.

Just a friendly reminder. smile.gif End of the day, decision is on your hand k

I'm taking next year so I believe still have plenty of time to prepare. Good Luck to you.

Hi,
I'm studying degree in accounting & finance at sunway right now, I'm actually more keen on finance. Once I finish my degree, could I get exemptions?

For CFA, do you need a bachelor's degree for entry requirements or you can enroll straight after SPM?

Hey guys,

Recently I have been hearing a lot of good things about Noesis in offering the CFA programme.

Besides normal classes, i heard they are offering career advice as well some personal development courses.

Found this link about the Investment Industry Career Panel and CFA Workshop - https://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=199873776747458
sounds interesting. Is it worth going? Of course will consider taking up the programme with them.

Investment Industry Career Panel ??

You went? How did you find the speakers? I like the guy from CIMB the most.

Ya I like the CIMB most, looks confident and smart.

QUOTE(gooni3 @ Oct 29 2011, 03:01 PM)
the only reason for noesis is the career placement

i need that because i'm not sure if i can get a job after passing level 1 itself. i will need 4 years to get the charterholder.. sigh.. so i wanna save as much time as possible =(

if kasturi has that career placement thingy i would go for it..

another concern for me is i read online that some say CFA doesn't help at all if u're going into IB's.. MBA from top uni's are the only way
*
According to the CIMB guy who was one of the panel during Noesis workshop, he mentioned few times his CFA worth more than his MBA.

QUOTE(Chisinlouz @ Oct 30 2011, 09:30 PM)
hello. i ask for information for noesis as well, however i did not join because i think it is better for me to save money before i join CFA. The fee, 5.5k is for all 3 lvl or level 1 only? Can someone let me know the price of all 3 level, so i can prepare for it? Anyway i now working, plan to take 2 years later.
*
5.5k is for 1 yr noesis tuition fees only.

so passing is based on 70% scores or 70% percentiles.

What I heard is 70% percentiles pass.
