Are the Kaplan Scheweser books the same for June 2012 and Dec 2012 L1 exams?

They look like the same: purchased from a Xerox shop @ churchgate a week back.

Eg: Both are having similar cover (Green cover)....

200 pages of FSA done in 5 days

If you are planning ahead for the CFA Level1 - June 2013, discuss here

Plz explain the following with an example
a) Deferred tax assets
b) Impairment in PPE

yes Schweser notes is sufficient for round 1.Please start your preparation so we can start our discussion.

what is the source that you people are using for practice question, other than at the end of each LOS in the books(schweser and cfai)?

I am using schweser question bank, is that sufficent?

@[354893:sushant1002001] Take mock tests and you will know where you stand. analystforum and analystnotes are two good websites where you can find questions related to CFA

Guys, Please advise me how to study for Economics+Ethics + Maths of L1. I am a qualified CA(1st attempt) and working in an IT giant. I have finished almost 3 scheweser books ; and am in derivatives section of book "Fixed Income Securities".

After this i am gonna start "Ethics, Maths" and then the "economics" book of Schweser.

Please advise me how to efficiently and effectively study for L1 esp the pending segments.

I dunno why, even after being in this stage of completion, i am not feeling that confident. Is it because of the cost involved?

You can answer me via PM.

Thanks.

hi guys.

i want to do international cfa, and looking forward to December exam and i am living in Indore.. my problem is that from where i should take cfa coaching i am very confused, please help, or i should prepare by my self, my background is engineering.

i found some institutes at my city providing cfa coaching classes, but there are only 3 institutes and the no. of students in Indore those are opting cfa are very very less.

shifting to another city is not a problem

also tell me how much important is the coaching, do i need the best coaching center, do i need to shift to another city...or i can do it from anywhere...please help...

my background is computer science engineering
i have no knowledge of finance
i am hoping if i could crack cfa level 1 in this December

and also tell me can i do cfa while doing job..??

please help...

Hi
Me too wanna give dec L1. Already downloading the notes and videos then will start studies

fra is a interesting subject where u will able to learn about BS,CF and Income statement.I think u should take up FRA simultaneously.Plz complete all the questions of notes and curriculum .Try to discuss here in case of any doubt.

Finally some response. Well i have started studying this week(im late) n i started with economics. Im reading directly from schweser's. Have you started with eco? I was planning to take up 2 subs simultaneously so that it doesnt get boring. May b i will take up FRA or CF.
