which calculator is recommended: TI BA II PLUS or the TI BA II PLUS PROFESSIONAL?
Will the professional one serve any purpose for level 1? What about level 2 and level 3? It makes sense to invest in one calci for all 3 levels. So, does anybody know whether the professional calculator is beneficial for level 2 and level 3 of CFA.
Thanx

Hi puys
I wanted to have your suggestions before going for CFA exam.
I am presently a Business Analyst with an org located in Bangalore but in the Retail domain.I wish to appear for CFA exam so will this work ex as a BA in Retail domain be countable or is it compulsory to have a work ex in Finance domain.
Also I am a 2010 B.Tech graduate thinking to appear for CFA Dec 2010.
Planning to devote around 2-3 hours in weekdays and 7-8 hours during weekends.
Will this time be sufficient?
Anyone from Bangalore with Schweser notes and interested in sharing them???

Hi all,
I wanted to know what excatly means relevant work Experience in Finance.Talking about my case I am currently in my 1st year MBA from SIBM-Pune.I have taken Finance as my specialisation.If in case I get a job in an IT company after MBA Finance,as not so core Finance job will this exp. be counted or not.Also if we take some other faculty other than Finance as specialisation lets say Operations and get job also in Ops. filed will this be counted as relevant job exp. for CFA.Could any one plz paste the link where this work experience is mentioned in detail.
Thanks in advance!!
the following link gives the work exp. countedfor membership.
http://www.cfainstitute.org/about/membership/process/Pages/work_experience_descriptions.aspx
can someone get the details of wotk exp. counted for CFA to become relevant.
Working in a role of Equity Research, Financial Analysis, I-banking, debt syndication, underwriting of insurance,etc are some examples of Relevant work ex.
I think coding for a financial software isn't relevant work experience..
EDIT: To confirm, you can always email

Puys,
while gng thru a ethical standards module i'd a doubt.. Ethical standards states that the member must adhere to the more strict laws and principle even if the activity is otherwise legal in dat particular area... Suppose if member x is performing his function in dat area and found dat activity is illegal acc. to cfa stand. So my ques. Is whether mr. X is supposed to report such activity to compliance dept or not since activity is legal in dat region.. Reply puys.. Thnx in adv.
I'll explain with an example of Insider Trading
If insider trading is allowed by the Law, but since CFA Ethics prohibits it should not be done.
CFAI is never wrong 😃

Piyu109 Saysso mr.x is supposed to dissociate from such activity?
Of course! No two thoughts on that.
Taking the example further, if Local Law is silent on Insider Trading, but since CFAI prohibits it, you cannot trade on Insider info.
