hi
well first of all I would like to apolagize to the mods & other senior members for my behavior, When i had decided to put up a fight with jaiho jai & Co i did not realize That I was actually encouraging them for what they were doing , & that it was deminishing the whole purpose of this forum
from now on , i shall be posting material that shall be readily useful to all CFA's/prospective CFA's
(& Mr Rattler85 or anybody who wants help suggessions & tips on examinations u may PM me)
I have gone though the long discussion about ICFAI and CFAI in this forum. I am a Banker, in our Industry we all know only Indian Institute (ICFAI) CFA, which is famous as it is designed to suit the Indian capital markets and financial services industry. I am passionate to pursue CFA from ICFAI. As per my knowledge ICFAI started CFA program in India almost 20 years back and they developed CFA program structure as per the Indian market, Due to the rigorous program structure, quality content and contemporary coverage of topics, it got popularity in India and large number of professionals started enrolling into the program every year. Thus ICFAI developed the CFA brand in India from last 10 years.
Now from last 1 or 2 years I am observing some legal battle against Indian Institute (ICFAI) and American Institute during these the American Institute is trying to establish in India by taking advantage of CFA Brand built by ICFAI over the decade. This is like multinationals trying to corner Indian companies. We should bring awareness among Indian students and protect our Indian Institution.

All I can say is that every person comes in this world with pre determined fate. There is little one can do to change it. If a person wants to believe that ICFAI (which no longer exists) or Indian CFA (this term is again misnomer) or ICFAI Trupura University (which is appropriate) run CFA is best suited for him/her then thats great go ahead and do it. I am still waiting to hear new successes from the "CFA" from the ICFAI Tripura Univ, so far no one has given it. I really want to know the salary levels of these passouts. Tumtum give the statistics so that I can change my opinion about your course. But no luck

hi dude .... why r u always after icfai
.... instead just be cooperative n help others ... also u would agree that u can consider icfai cfa as an pg degree which is ugc approved ... thats it,, no more... n for the people who r actually interested going for cfa us... can u tell us ..wat the procedure is ...wat would be the minimum salary in today's time after clearing each group (for non mba just cfa s only )..pls reply soon ...
rattler85 SaysGreat you are maan ..! I am struggling to clear the level B. Every time I study quant harder they make the Q paper even tougher. And now toh you dont even get the past Q papers. Any tips how I should pass the FM and Quant in Level 2. Moreover please throw some light on the job market for CFA. I want to start my career ASAP.Would it be possible for me to get an entry level job with Level 2 passed. Prior to this I did BCA for my graduation. Kindly advise.
Hey hi..
Well i will jus giv u one advice for level B.. jus do ur workbook and past attempts papers properly n there wont be any stoppin
I did.. n secured 83..(QM 89 n FM 77)
Well i would rate FM paper to be a bit tougher rather than QM.. so lay more emphasis on FM..
About the job market.. u cant expect much after clearin ur 2nd level.. because u r not mature enuf in terms of finance.. once u clear ur level 5.. then perhaps u can think of placements..
At present jus concentrate on ur level 2 n dis time with proper efforts u will clear wit flyin colours..
wish u all da best!!

sanchi.sharma06 Sayshey.. can anyone tel me sme coaching institutes or home tution for CFA
hi sanchi .. atleast tell for wat grp u want coaching ?????

then only we can help you...

for 1 st group and i put up in east delhi..
sanchi.sharma06 Saysfor 1 st group and i put up in east delhi..
There are 2 alternatives, first one is that you contact the CFA centre, they will provide you coaching for all levels of CFA, you need to pay a certain fee to them.
The second option is to go for private tuitions. You can contact any college level professor who provides individual tuitions for Eco & FA.

Hi Harshu50,
I am B.Tech (I.T), with 2 year of work ex, never had been thru commerce subject . After Working for two years I felt the need of diversification and sharpening my skills in management side. I will be writing CAT next year. I Have enrolled my self in ICFAI- CFA program, but since i don't know ABC of commerce so finding it difficult to understand the subject.My working hour doesn't permit me to enroll for classes, so I am looking forward for some good books to grasp the basics of the subject.
Hope this info will help u in guiding me.

since u had maths it is not going to be difficult for u .. u hav a lot of time for ur exams ...just remember that fa exams u need to learn n understand basic concepts and not be an accounts expert ... so first JUST READ the text book many times and if u r still not getting anythin read the study guide of fa.. U DONT NEED TO GO ANY OTHER BOOK...

feel free for further info

You register at the Tripura site, there is only one site for the CFA. These chaps formed a University at Tripura as they got permission there. Ownership is the same.
