Hey everyone
Just wondering I have the Schweiser books but are dated from 2011. Is that still ok or is it important I purchase the newer books? I assume the CFA curriculum remains the same?Thanks

CFAI changes their study materials every year, though major changes, it can still be quite different.
Here are some of the changes:
2011-2012

Always safer to get the latest @PMWAnderson! I’d hate to spend half of the year studying only to know I miss the pass band by 2 points! I’m paranoid like that :))

Thanks yall. Thought by saving some money that would benefit, probably not in hindsight…

Number of readings for L1 in June have actually dropped(and the fixed income material is new). For this reason I wouldn’t read outdated content- especially if you have to read a bit less…

Good decision! I guess the first book hasn’t changed much. So the first couple of sessions in Quant may be good starting points as well.

@vincentt I’m guessing the LOS changes each year and not the exam period? The Scheweisser material for the June exam would still be valid in December?
-

Yes. It will be valid for that year (June and December)

@PMWAnderson Ethics and quantitative basics may be fine to begin with

Economics is fully changed and other topics are slightly changed as compared to 2013 curriculum…..

@kristin_cfa thanks! I ordered the new Schweser books so should arrive soonish. I started with Ethics today as I would imagine that it hasn’t changed much. Any other topics to start with?
