Excellent preparation for CFA Level I
I used Kaplan Schweser to prepare for CFA Level I while working full-time and passed on my first attempt. The SchweserNotes cover the whole curriculum in a clear, digestible way, and the video lectures were a big help on top of them. The tutors explain every topic clearly, including the more technical areas like Fixed Income, Derivatives and FSA, and they give practical tips on how to approach exam questions, which is just as useful as the content itself. The QBank is great for drilling topics as you go and spotting weak areas early. The mock exams are actually harder than the real exam, which I'd count as a major benefit: after working through tougher questions in the mocks, the exam itself felt much more manageable. If you need an efficient, structured way through Level I, I'd recommend it. I'll definitely be using Kaplan Schweser for Level II as well.
