Studied on and off for 2 months prior, and studied a lot the final week or two. Estimated 50-65 hours of studying max. Passing the CPA helped with studying, as well as previous coursework when i was in school. Level 2 is way harder i hear.

 

I studied my ass off for this thing, first time writing, used 100% Schweser for notes and practice questions/exams plus did the CFAI Mock.

Level 2: Pass >70% on all sections!

Total time studying: 60 hours, started studying two weeks before exam.

Guides: schweser

Honestly, this was a really fun process [at the very least, it was much more intellectually demanding than my job]. Reminded me of the many late nights i spent studying while I was in college.

I was studied while in my last year of university and working full-time. Used Kaplan Schweser books and did several practice questions. Kaplan Schweser Question Bank is the shit.

 

Congrats to all of you on the successful results. I am planning on taking the level I in December. Would anyone happen to know of resources I could begin studying as I wait a few more weeks to raise enough$ to register and obtain the study materials provided by the institute?
