Hi, I was an FRM L1 candidate for May exam from India, but it has been deffered to November. I wanted to reguster for CFA L1 in August. Do you think I can prepare in 3 months given that there’s a 40% overlap in the syllabus of both FRM and CFA? What should be my study strategy?

Study strategy aside, CFA registrations for August 2021 are now closed, so you might not be able to carry out your exam plan.
As for your original question, I don’t think it’s advisable to try and pass CFA L1 in 3 months off the back of your FRM knowledge.
We recommend 6 months preparation, and even if you assume a pure 40% overlap, that’s 3.5 months, and that’s assuming you’ve completely mastered the relevant bits of FRM.
Obviously you’re free to try (registration issues aside) but I don’t think it would allow you to maximize your pass chances.
