Cheers!

 

Sheli

@ shefali: though the question wasnt for me... but being a CFA student i would like to help u... ya u could get it in delhi... not the original(as they are much costlier) but the duplicate edition.. u can contact on 9911107020 for the books... if u want them in soft copy u can mail me on aagrawal116 @ gmail.com

 

@ aviral u can only register for CFA after completing ur grad... no point to consider articleship here :)

@ sheli contact this no.9868564114..jhawar bok depot near hauz khaz , new delhi.. they provide schweser books for Rs. 1200/-

@ munish arora.. no buddy u cannot skip any level.. and no exemptions as well.. :)

*PEACE*

Hi Espionage

I will be sitting for CFA in June 2013 (L1). I am from Kolkata. I need  some answers to a few questions as i am very much confused.

1) Will the CFA institute ship the study materials to me in my home or will i have to collect it from somewhere?

2)I am doing articleship...will i have to submit form 112 in ICAI to do CFA???

3)Also is the schweser notes available in india (prferably in kolkata?)? If so can u please tell me where? Cause if i order from their site they charge a bomb.

4) And lastly if self study is done from schweser notes and cfa institute study mat can we clear L1???

thank u so much in advance for all your help! :)

Modify what shd i do? Hi I want to know whether i should join cfa or not. Actually i want to know many things. 1. Am i eligible for cfa level 1. Presently i am pursuing b.com 2nd year and will give the second year exam in may 2013. So can i give exam in june 2013 (level 1)? 2. I am also doing CA (chartered accountancy). I have cleared ipcc (intermediate level) this may (2012). So acc to that i have to go thru my articleship training which runs for 3 years. my final exam of ca is due on may 2015. So my preference is ca over cfa. But i want to do both. So if i give exam in may 2013 and pass on it, then at what time would i be able to give my level 2nd of cfa 3. combination of ca and cfa provides the job package of how many lacks? 4. what is the passing criteria of level 1 exam? I have heard that there are 240 questions in level 1 which are mcq based. So how many questions need to be correct for passing level 1. 5. i have also heard that some may provide the dummy circificate of work ex and thus i would then be eligible for l1, what is ur views abt this? Also if u want to give me any suggestion regarding cfa, please feel free.... My cell no: 8961672590

Hi espionage,

If we register for Level 1 exam in June 2013 by paying Program Enrollment & Exam Registration fees and if we coudnt clear the exam so what would be the fees we need to pay to take up the exam in Dec 2013 , Is there any exemption in the fees if we take up the exam again in Dec 2013 ??

@ anup sir you would only need to pay the exam fees next time., 

*PEACE*
