I am also depressed because there hasn't been much business lately. I believe I have already accumulated so much knowledge but why aren't there many clients wanting to tap my brain? I will be so please to service them with what I really know so much. So it really makes me think whether this CFA journey is worth it? Would people appreciate all the hard work put in? Will people be willing to pay me for providing them with such service?
This blog is for me to record my struggle in taking the CFA Program. A large proportion of the students taking the CFA Program will fail. I am an IFA in Singapore but wish to remain anonymous for now. I sat for the Level 1 examination in June 2009, Level 2 in June 2010 and Level 3 in June 2011. I passed all three levels on first attempts. The global passing rate was 46%, 39% and 51% respectively.

Feel really depressed
After looking at the text, i reall felt lousy. So much to learn and the pain of reading these books really make me feel scare. It is really torturing going through this. I am considering whether can I lower my pain to get Video lessons as a supplement? What I intend to do is to read all the text quickly within one month. When Schweser or Stalla comes up with their materials, maybe I can start my study program formally by viewing the videos and studying the text in depth. This year when doing my Level 1, I found using the Schweser text very much useful except for Economics because the CFA text on Economics were already very well written.
