Weekly Review-CFA Break Edition

Posted: 10 Dec 2010 04:15 AM PST


Over the past few months I have been extremely busy with studying for the CFA exam which was this past weekend. Well I am glad to say it is finally over and I can get back to somewhat of a normal life. However it won’t be a long break, two weeks, as I’ll be starting to study for the June 2011 exam. Historically level 1 pass rate is around the 40% mark, however the December exam tends to be around 35%. Overall about 62,000 people were registered to sit for the December exam.
