Excellent CFA Review Book for Starter February 18, 2008 Peter Kao (Irvine, CA USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is an excellent review for anyone to start preparing for CFA Exam. It works with the study materials by Schweser. It is a quick review for fundamentals of CFA Level 1 examination. The test questions at the end of each section provide a very good test on the understanding of the section. I highly recommend this.
Does NOT have CFA 2008 Learning Objectives April 24, 2008 Mottu (New Jersey) 1 out of 3 found this review helpful
It may be good for beginners to understand the concepts, but it is a waste of your money if you are taking the exam for 2008. Although some may consider not a big deal, one disturbing thing I found was that the formulas use a different notations/symbols/terminology than what you will find in CFA Institute books. So you are likely to go back and forth between notations and get confused. It is better to stick to CFA Institute notations as questions in the exam will use the terminology from their book. You will also be surprised to know that this book does not cover 2008 CFA Learning Objectives.
