Description
Dream of passing the CFA?
Wall Street Notes brings the newest Level 1 Crash Course to fast-track your way to CFA success in 2024!
It's no secret that the CFA is very difficult to pass, but what better way to study than with a method crafted by those who already passed the test?
At Wall Street Notes, all Level 1 crash courses are created by subject experts who passed the CFA above the 90th percentile on their first try!
Our goal is simple, we wanted to create a complemental study tool to help candidates:
#1 Understand faster than everyone else, while still covering every single learning outcome (LOS) in the books.
#2 Save valuable study time.
#3 Be able to review and remember everything on exam day.
Here is how we do exactly that:
1) To help you Understand, Wall Street Notes took the entire curriculum and transformed it into simple animated videos that help you visualize the textbook quickly. And unlike other courses, it explains every single learning outcome so you can be sure there are no gaps in your knowledge.
2) To help you save time, Wall Street Notes covers the average learning module in 10 minutes, and the average topic in about an hour, which is 4 times faster than any other video provider.
3) To help you remember everything for exam day, Wall street notes allows you to review from anywhere at any time so that you can use snippets of free time to keep the material fresh in your mind.
It’s all about working smarter, not harder! Let's take your strategy to the next level.
