      Hello everyone,

      First discussion post of mine, and I would like to ask the forum if anyone has used the CFA courses offered on Udemy (https://www.udemy.com/topic/cfa/). They are at most $10 with 4+ stars on most courses, even some with over 300 reviews. If you have, please let me know what you think!

      I’ve not heard much about them among the CFA group to be honest. Mark Meldrum is the one that tends to get mentions. Let me know if you do end up trying some!

      Just had a look at some CFA videos (by prepnuggets) and they seem pretty good. Maybe I’m not searching right, but I was unable to find a course, or a set of courses, that covered the entire CFA curriculum, just some topics. If that’s the case I wouldn’t recommend it – you need a complete set from the same provider at least.

      I did not. I bought courses for Quant and Derivatives, Made it about halfway through Quant and stopped because the voice is a robot and I do not particularly study well to that.

      Thanks! By robot voice you mean computer-generated? Yeah I wouldn’t want that…

      @concernedape Yeah, robot voices. I think on FRA it’s human voice because so many people wanted it, but it’s for the most part its computer generated.

      Just had a look through most of the CFA courses on Udemy after the black friday sale. for the most part they are utter crap. there are some helpful videos here and there, but not worth the time to view them all to benefit from them.
