Med school to Asset Management? Rework my plan

I am indeed a med school dropout. I need that Wrong Way post more than the chimp who posted that, perhaps.
My friend in finance (actually the only person I knew in finance) is dropping high finance for nursing. More power to her.
I'm female, incidentally.

Can you evaluate my plan below? Suggestions absolutely welcomed

Thus far, my plan is as follows.

  1. Take a graded, pre-MBA math course online (covers linear algebra and differential calculus) from mid-
    June to early September. (Since I took Calculus I ~10 yrs ago)
  2. Prepare for CFA I exam administration in December, by taking Kaplan Schweser course at night from
    mid-July to late October.
  3. Draw from reading list on IB.

Incomplete parts of plan (needs focus):
Work
Networking

Problems: CFA exam is in three parts, ideally over 3 years. Not sure if I have three years to spare and may
not pass on first attempt.

I may have bitten off more than I can chew at once. You can absolutely tell me my approach is wrong, so long as you offer new advice
At least the physician path is well-trodden and like a guild. It is not unreasonable to expect a job when you come out the other side.
So, be that as it may, can you can suggest orgs that have worked in networking for you, too

I am in the DC area. I could relocate to NYC, but D.C. is my playground for now.
Recommendations for a consultant who specializes in postbaccalaureate hires would be especially appreciated
