- Hi all, in this video I would like to share my experience with the CFA Level II exam which I passed in February 2022. I talk about how I found the difficulty of the exam compared to the CFA Level I exam, resources I used to prepare and some tips on resolving pre-exam anxiety. Hope you find this useful!
Book and resources I mention:
KS Materials: www.schweser.com/cfa/level-2/...
KS Secret Sauce: www.schweser.com/cfa/level-2/...
Wiley's Level II CFA Program 11th Hour Final Review Study Guide: www.amazon.nl/Wileys-Level-Pr...
Thanks for the video on CFA level 2 and for sharing your experiences. It's really useful. I appreciate that, Mariia.
I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Hi , congratulations ... Thanks for sharing your experience , it's really useful
Wow, so insightful thank you so much..
Definitely a good video. Just took my L1 in August and trying to mentally prepare for what L2 looks like. Admittedly it is very nice to have some time before results are released to let the mind relax. Wiley 11th hour I’m going to look into as a supplement. I’ve used Kaplan Schweser and find their material top notch
Thanks alot for making a video about it
Congratulations !! I wrote level 3 in May . The time constraint gets harder at level 3 in the essay portion especially. I concur on everything you mentioned. Especially the 300 hours theory...for level 2 and 3 you need much more time to be prepared
Thanks for the tips on Level 3:)
Useful. Thanks
I'm glad it was helpful!
Perfect Maria
Congrats on L2! Question: where did you purchase the flash cards?
Thanks:) Mine are from Kaplan Schweser
Thanks for the video tips, I'm currently doing level 1 as well. Looks like that view is from Rotterdam, right?
Good luck with Level I exam! And yes, it's Rotterdam :)
Congratulations!! I also work in finance and found your tips really valuable. Im taking Level 2 in August, how would you recommend I spend the last week before the exam? (e.g. days memorizing formulas, doing practice, questions, etc)
Thank you! During my last 7-10 days before the exam I usually do the following:
1. Memorize formulas
2. Repeat key concepts from summary materials (e.g., KS Secret Sauce, I re -read it once or twice)
3. Solve 15-20 exercises for each topic. In the KS study environment I can bookmark some Qs, I usually bookmark more complicated problems or the ones which are typical for this section to keep the sequence of steps fresh in my memory
4. 1-2 days before the exam I also go through the QuickSheet to make sure all concepts mentioned are sharp in my memory
Hope it helps:) Good luck!
@@marievandergraaf thanks so much :)
Hi..how much time is required for CFA Level 2? Which resources should I read? Which books should I refer? Let me know?
Thanks for the insight Marie. I too passed Level 1 in May 2021 but decided to sit for my Level 2 in August this year. Like you said, I'm less stressed than last time but not sure what to expect. Level 2 is significantly harder and longer than Level 1. Wish me luck
Good luck with the exam and thanks for sharing your experience!
I m watching lectures and how many months practice after lectures is enough for Level 2?
I have allocated 1.5 months to be precise
Hi Marie.....Can you guide as how to get along with The CFA level 1 Nov 2022
I like the Kaplan....but is it enough for L2.....well for u is enough....for me I guess I'll find out this month after completing my last bit of portfolio.....
For the practise I'll use the curiculum and candidate resources....feedback would be appreciated....danke
Thank for video that help me more , Is it good if i study for one year = 1.5 hour per day ? Becouse i would like to study it in comfortable way
Can you please make a detailed video on access scholarship, we struggle a lot with that
I didn't apply for a scholarship:( I'll see what I can do
Hi, congratulations!!
I cleared my Level 2 as well. Are you planning to give Level 3 in August this year?
Thank you! And congrats on clearing Level II! No, I plan to take my Level III exam in 2023

Has obtaining the cfa first two levels been seen as a necessity in acquiring a job in asset management or prior internships contributed more to it?
I started with the CFA Program only after I got my job. In my view, having good relevant experience for junior people is more important than obtaining first levels of CFA
@@marievandergraaf Thanks for your reply Marie :)
Congratulations
Did you attend lectures from any teacher / tutor or you went for self study?
Kindly mention for both L1 and L2
Thanks! No, for both L1 and L2 I only did self-study
@@marievandergraaf amazing and motivational for other
You're damn pretty Marie and your voice is so sweet.
Can you please conduct one to one zoom session of your experience for more clearty 🙏
Please contact me here marievandergraaf@gmail.com
, let's see what I can do
Congratulations...
I'm also thinking about pursuing CFA...Any advice for me as i am a professional already?
Thank you! I would suggest you think about what value having the CFA charter would bring you. If you work in investment management, than it can improve your chances of finding a new job (at least in Europe). Or if you want to enter into the investment management, having these exams could help. But if you are not in finance and it's not a hard requirement for your industry, then maybe there are other good certifications?
I have watched some of your videos and I really liked them. thanks for the share. SUBBED and LIKED ! a fellow creator ....
Thank you:)

I too passed the CFA L2 Feb 2022.
