    Anyone planning on sitting CFA level 1 exams this December.

    I just signed up and I am already overwhelmed by the amount of material.

    Already making my way into ethics.

    Anyone who has done them, how did they find level 1?

    I was going to but with the arrival of a surprise babaí in Jan I've put it on the back burner until next summer. are you going for the schweser notes or trying to do it directly from the CFA material?

    Congratulations on your news!, I wish you the best of luck with balancing a new born and the CFAs next year, no easy feet!

    I've been told that it is worthwhile using the official CFA notes for the Ethics part and that the Schweser notes will be more than enough for the other topics.

    I'm about half way into Ethics so far but have only used the Schweser notes so far, my one worry is that I'm using 2012 Schweser notes and while they say the course is practically the same, hopefully there isn't something I am missing out on.

    I'm not too sure on the variance on the content year on year but I'm lucky enough that the company is going to foot the bill for the exams and notes so ill be getting them shortly. let the fun begin.
