        Hi, I passed the level I Dec 2014 exam, and have been debating if I should do Level II in June. Now there are only 15 weeks left and I was wondering if that is enough time for covering the material and passing the exam. I have not registered or bought any materials yet. I started studying for level I mid Aug. I am not working at the moment but job searching, and thought that should be the priority. Now I am thinking maybe its not too late to start studying for level II. Please advise if you think it is worth doing. Thanks.

          I’d give it a try if money is not an issue, why not

            I did with 4 months and working full time. 3 months without a job is possible but not easy, make sure you have enough hours to get through it all!

              Thanks Bittersweet, I just wanna know if I have a proper chance at passing if I begin now. I don’t want to go through the agony if I don’t have enough time to cover it…

                  Its definitely possible, it just depends on how many hours you need to learn all of the material.  I did it with very sparse studying from Jan through March (baby born in Jan) and working full time.  April and May were hellish but I passed.  If you’re not working and make it a priority you can pass.

                    If you have registered for it, then kudos. Clearing CFA changed my life for the good. If you want, I can share with you video lectures of Arif Irfanullah. They are simply amazing. Personally for me, it helped cut short my prep time by half.
