I am done with Quant, FRA and Economics, but I am still left with a good chunk to read. I feel like I am taking a lot of time doing my first read. Also I am forgetting stuff. What is the ideal time to finish a book? And just how do I retain stuff? PS: I am not cramming up; just trying to understand concepts, which is probably why it is taking me so much time…

@Ankita you would want to go back to the material you studied regularly…might i suggest you take a look at this post?

You’re done the toughest section (FRA); you can project forward your time knowing that with Quant, FRA and Econ you’re done 42% (http://www.cfainstitute.org/programs/cfaprogram/exams/Pages/exam_topic_area_weights.aspx) so far. Try to leave 3-4 weeks for review and decide if you need to speed up or not. Know that you’ll likely need to increase your avg study time/day as you go forward to accommodate reviewing past topics so that you aren’t forgetting everything.

Thanks everyone for your inputs, really appreciate it. I think it also helps to do a lot of questions – I am doing the Schweser Pro Q bank after each chapter, helps me understand concepts better. Unfortunately I did not make any major notes except for scribbling important stuff on the text book itself, until I read your note Pranav. My focus is to finish my first read of the curriculum asap, but like Tim and Sidharth mentioned, I must start accommodating time to review past topics. Thanks once again everyone 🙂
