Where do you normally set up shop to hit the CFA books? And do elaborate if you have any tips & tricks associated with your location!

@diya if you are the kind who couldn’t concentrate when there’s noise then cafe wouldn’t be your place. I get distracted easily when i’m home. Apparently, I have plenty of other stuff to do when i’m about to start and then there goes half an hour. : :-O

@diya cause it’s easy for me. Every time I study outside it’s about 5 mins before I go “crap, I wish I brought xxx”, xxx being a particular book, my notes, etc. It’s hard to bring all your material out, and yet when studying you tend to jump around readings a lot.

@Zee so demanding!
I prefer home for the the reasons Zee posted but also for the following:
1) I have an awesome setup (btw I don’t study in my room so I can resist taking a nap after studying for 10 min)
2) When it comes to studying I suffer from a bit of Jekyll and Hyde. I’m known for keeping calm but when I am studying I have the shortest fuse ever. I can’t ruin my rep by studying in public :p -

Noticed quite a few CFA candidates ‘camping’ in costa canary wharf recently. Might be motivating to see others working hard.

You should see Starbucks near the Marks and Sparks.

@diya because of reason #2. Because I study at cafes precisely for that reason. So that I control my temper. 2 sides of the same coin?

@diya, I’m so out of touch of K-pop bands I must admit! There’s a new one everyday and they almost look the same LOL. I like jazz a lot actually.

I keep seeing this discussion’s title as “Where is your God now?” for some reason. Is it just me? :-??

You guys should try the office too. It’s surprisingly conducive to studying once you’re done with work…

@diya you can try headphones! I used to use these large ones…
@diya Go for the in-ear headphones they are much comfortable.

Sounds like me. I send myself out immediately and no coming home until it’s done. Separates home and work really.

Yea I saw those around a lot too. But not much of a carry-my-music everywhere person, because it’s likely I will miss a stop on the tube/train!
