I think the key to passing is how much time u spend revising and taking exam quetions.

Very important

United States: 41 percent of the 11,273 total exam candidates
Canada: 40 percent of the 3,078 total exam candidates
Europe: 41 percent of the 6,041 total exam candidates
Asia and Pacific Asia: 39 percent of the 15,120 total exam candidates
Central and South America: 41 percent of the 325 total exam candidates
Africa/Middle East: 28 percent of the 1,736 total exam candidates[ [

ameenah try buy Schweser level 1 it comes highly rated. So are u planning to go to South Africa for the Level 1 in December.
hispy99 Guy your the best. tHANKS FOR THE ADVICE.

Where are u planning to write the exam

@hispy99
Did u rely solely on Shweser for ur level 1.

How many of u are taking these exams in June and are planning on taking them in Ghana
Please contact me.

@ Somebody
The most important thing u need is determination and a realistic study plan. Cause sometimes u start too early and sometimes u may end up starting too late so its important to find the time thats right for you. I am registered for the 2008 in Ghana
Alot of people I know are starting in January, so with a background in Investment banking Now should be just okay. And I mean now as in immediately today. between 10 and 15hrs a week should be good enough to stand a chance of passing. Wish u luck.

U should average a minimum of 1 study session a week starting today u should finish 2 to 3 weeks before the exam. Leaving u time for a revision.
Using Schewsers would give enuff time to achieve these goals.
Hope I was helpful

@barge
the mean pass rate is [/i]roughly[i] %40 world wide but in Nigeria the pass rate is closer to 10% not trying to burst anybodies bubble just want all of us to be adequately prepared.
@ all
How many people are taking level 1 in june please?
@ beelala
There are training centers in Nigeria but there success rate is quite poor.
@bakre
Is Temitope a CFA charterholder

Does anybody have Schweser 2008 on PDF

Somebody called from this forum called me concerning the exams. Guy wassup any questions please feel free to ask.
The failure rate concerning CFA in Nigeria is ridiculous so please lets seriously prepare ourselves.
For people that need study notes I am ready to photocopy for them.
But most importantly lets prepare and show those white guys say we get sense.
Bakre/Barge are u guys registered for these exams.
For people wey don start preparations which study session una don dey and what have been ur difficulties so far.
I was hoping by now that na the CFA curriculum we suppose don dey discuss dey help ourselves.
How many of us are presently employed?
N130, 000 is alot of money to throw away.

Guy thanks alot.
So I will have to print out the curriculum myself?

How many people have attempted level 1?
How many people here have passed level?
and how many of you hae actually registered for level 1 in june and how many of you are in lagos?

@barge
Nice one.Yes i have bought the 2008 Schweser study notes for level 1.
So relying exclusively on the study notes isn't a bad idea.
Do u know any medium i can use and pay for these exams. Its the basic headache i have now, and will i pay extra for the shipping

Want to start a study group in Lagos at least 3hrs every weekend Peoples that are game please indicate.

My Brothers and my Ogas. To what extent do u think i should rely on the Schweser study notes. Currently on Study Session 5. Sincere comments would be appreciated.

Hi, Guys
This thread was supposed to be for people preparing for the June 2008 CFA level 1 exam. But excessive replies makes it hard for the serious candidate to follow the chain of events. If u have questions ask them politely and you will be answered. And if your questions does not have anything to do with the CFA level 1 exam kindly find somewhere else to post ur comment. This is an extremely serious exam and should be taken with the utmost seriousness. Planning to buy Schweser study notes any comments from my brothers.

Bro, piece of advise stop using those analyst notes. 40% of the curriculum has changed since then.

Guys, preparing for June 2008 as well. . What study material are u guys using taking into consideration that 40% of the curriculum has been changed.
