Hi Monkeys, Since I'm in the last semester of b-school, and secured a ft ibd job, I have a lot of time on my hands and thus I'm thinking of studying for CFA 1.

CFA more crucial for non target schools?
Pursuing an MS Fin at a top regional university, but not necessarily a target school. My thinking is that the CFA has added value for the less elite a school is. Many posts say the cfa isn't worth it. Looking for guidance. Looking to break into an Asset Management (sorry if the broad definition...
