Hey Everyone,
I was wondering if it is beneficial to take the CFA level one in college. I want to go into PE and will be interning for a BB next summer 2021. I was thinking about taking the CFA level one to add to my overall resume. Would this help me when it comes to PE recruitment or just help in general?

Yeah unless you're gunning for AM/HF/ER, it's not that useful.
