- Taking good notes while studying for the CFA exams or any other exam, is a vital part of effective learning. I share my note writing strategy while studying for the CFA exams. Then offer a few tips about taking good notes while studying that will help you review later on. I also speak to the value of practicing how to learn from your study notes. Studying for the CFA exams helped me learn how to learn! And you will find the same. Studying works a little differently for everyone, so take notes however works best for you.
Didn't know the finance wizard is a Leverkusen fan🙌🏻
On level 1 atm. I write down 90% of the material on my IFT video lectures.
(For memorization and quick review later)
This takes me 3 hours to note down 1 video lecture. 1 reading usually has 4 video lectures.
Making me complete 1 reading in approx 4-5 days with notes, given i put 3 hours/day.
(I do practice questions from ift for a reading once i complete it)
Once the syllabus is completed through the above method i will use the notes and practice questions. That's going to be my strategy.
Note: 2 friends of mine adviced me this method who personally used this strategy to pass both levels 1&2 in their 1st attempt using IFT videos and converting them to notes.
Hoping people can share their study strategies as well.
Thank you for sharing!
I write alottt of notes also :( its taking fkn foreverrrrr... I cant wait to finish the notes taking part and just review and do questions.. i do quizzes and qbnaks for the reading after I finish the note taking but I cant wait to just review and do questions
I take moments to think about things to learn. I used to write notes a lot then I realized I wasn’t actually learning, I was just copying and pasting. I learned that if I just take a couple moments to think about something, I will understand it and retain the understanding. Basically writing things doesn’t do much if anything. Unless one writes down things in their own words which comes from their own understanding. Just copying and pasting exact words etc. doesn’t do anything.
Very well said! I totally agree.
Thank you AJ, love you.
Love from India❤
Hey man! Just watching all your content about CFA program and I wanted to ask you to upload or tell me in private if that fits better for you which forums and discussions you checked to compare study strategies, etc. Thanks for all the content you are making because it is really high-quality level ✌️
I like this topic, I will make a video about it! Hopefully this week.
Thank you sir!!!!!!!!
Could you please make a video on 'How to implement the things which you have studied in practical work '? I mean How can someone learn practical work while studying except internships? How to be prepared to face real life working scenarios?
Unfortunately I don't think that academic knowledge always carries over to real life work. Job experience is king for this!
I paused the video literally 10times to check where do I get that sound..❤️😂
Lol
Idhalam matum notice panu

I don't get the answer never. I memorize the way they come to the solution.
What is AJ full name
Hi AJ, so is there a video for every chapter in the Wiley books? Should you read the chapter first and then watch the video?
Yes there is. I read some chapters and watched videos for other chapters.
The material of bloomberg its good?
Hi AJ I hope you are doing good. Automation is something that is effecting finance sector now. Do you think automation is a concern for a person who is a cfa charter holder in the near future as in can algorithm or automation replace cfa's job?
It depends on the job. Some jobs will be replaced, yes. I tend to think the service industry cannot be replaced by AI.
@@straighttalks-ajsrmek323 can you make a video on this?
@@agamdeepmalhotra6955 I might do this in the future.
You must be suffering after Havertz left 😅
Thanks for the videos. I'm thinking of writing CFA level 1 in June 2021. Should I buy the 2020 Wiley material for 2020 just for practice? I'm a bit hesitant because the curriculum is usually reviewed annually.
I would not recommend it, but if you want to start really early and you have extra money to spend on Wiley books, then it certainly won't hurt to get more studying in.
@@straighttalks-ajsrmek323 thanks
-curate important material from wiley and CFA book to make review notes. Compile formulas
-avoid the derivation, avoid formulas that were not used very often
-method: question -> answer -> review wiley's explanation
Do you have any Instagram?
No, sorry.
Please, those chips. Very distracting.
What chips?
