hey guys,

i've just hopped onto the bandwagon... just wanted to know if anybody's there in n around Calcutta oops Kolkata to share the CFA material, the one recommended by the CFA institute ? i'm planning to appear in the December06 exam and so only the 06 material would do...

also wanted to know whether it would be prudent to go for Dec06 exam considering the fact that these guys (CFA INSTITUTE)usually change the curicullum on an annual basis... so neone plz tell me whether someone appearing for the dec exam is at a disadvantage or not ?

chill !

veron · June 9, 2006, 8:00am

hi dreamrun...surely we can make a group...im planning to give L1 is june07 as im hesitating dis year due to its tuffness nd cost...
yes sumeet ....u can enroll for cfa ( usa or icfai ) .u dont need workx to enroll....u can complete exams and show workx after u complete cfa....
sumeet with regular mba(finance) u need to be very sincere if u you want to pull off cfa...both of them requires hard work
keep posting:)

stop bossing everybody, you will fail cfa exam

Take this as a warning...you are making an idiot of yourself. With the increase in number of members the tolerance level of the regular junta,mods and admin is at a very low level..if you cannot contribute kindly scram. Please delete your cut/copy paste posts from the various threads except one. It is considered spamming here and not-too-kindly looked upon.

have gone through all the posts on this thread & wud request all u guys not to break the rules.. i mean dont post ur email ids etc here. USE PM.

right_there · June 22, 2006, 11:32am

Hi

Can someone kindly post the address of one

bookstore in Delhi that stocks Schweser/Stalla notes at an affordable price, plus the paperback (cheap) editions of the textbooks prescribed on the CFA website.

It'll be extremely helpful. I read thru all 11 pages of postings on this thread, but didn't find any information on the above issue.

Thanx.
