    hi man I will be going to uni next year, but I have 2 majors to choose from and I HAVE to choose one now, it's either accounting or finance, personally, I am more interested in finance, but I heard that finding a job is harder and accounting got more job opportunities, I want to follow my hearth but I don't want to become jobless after getting some degree since I will be studying abroad to china next year

      Accounting is a great degree, but i disagree that accounting has more job opportunities.

    Hi Aj, I am taking level 1 exam in august. Was wondering if you would do 1 on 1 sessions to go through textbook questions. I just need help with using the calculator (BA II Plus professional) is this something you could maybe help with?

    do a video about the relevance of CFA nowadays. Sadly, i'm starting to think is an overhyped qualification. You get the knowledge for good money, but sacrificing good years. However, it didn't improve my employability, I still struggle to find "relevant" jobs. CFA is so general, however if you do an ACCA, you're still a qualified accountant. love to see your thoughts...

    I have a Bachelor's in Business, and I am at the end of my Master's in Psychology. I am torn between pursuing my PhD in Psychology in the UK (about 3 years) and my MBA in the US (about 2 years). I am equally interested in psychology and finance. I stumbled across the CFA exam. If the cost is not a barrier for me, do you think it is wise to forego the MBA, earn my CFA selfpaced and pursue my PhD in Psychology? Think Wendy in Billions. I'd love to either work in the financial sector as a psychologist or become a day trader. I'm not sure I have a lot of interest in Wealth management. What are your thoughts? I really hope you see this. Also, My Graduate school is an Ivy institution if that matters. Also, I'm hoping my MBA will be IVY as well if I go that route. My PhD will be an equivalent in the UK.

      Hmmmmmm. These are interesting questions. In your situation, I don't think i would recommend the CFA program to you. MBA miiiiiiight make the most sense. But if Wendy had a CFA charter it could be pretty cool...

    Is it enough to solve the CFA institute questions (around 2.5k questions) for the exam? Are the questions very similar? I have my exam in August :)
    Thank you!

    Hi AJ. How differently, from L1, do you approach L2?

      Not very differently in terms of daily study structure. Just spend more hours studying.
