Early birds @Sarah @RaviVooda @alta12! 🙂
Planning ahead is great move though, but pace yourself and remember it’s a marathon, not a sprint, and you’ll be fine!

I wouldn’t start any hard studying too early as it might put a strain on your ‘memory retention’ abilities but it’s ultimately up to you.
You can definitely start some light reading to familiarize yourself with what’s to come.
If you do decide to start early, a study plan would definitely be a MUST. And lots of constant revision to ensure you don’t forget what you have learnt in reading 1 by the time you hit reading 10. For me, what works is to revise previous topics before I start a new one. With all the constant revision, it will become anchored in some part of your brain and even if you don’t know its there, its actually there.

Write down a summary notes. (handwritten preferably), its the best way to revise any subject faster.

Officially going to start studying for CFAL2 (Cease FunActivitiessquared 😀
My biggest mistake was consistency of study working full-time, would do 5 hours one day and 20 minutes the next day if I was tired… Definitely starting early and sticking to regimen should help. Btw, anyone know the date schweser releases the ’14 study guides? -

The content for reading 1 and 2 seem to be same as Level II?
There are several readings which are identical between L1 and L2. In 2012 the first corporate finance SSs were identical to prior L1 readings.
I think with the ethics you may find some of the examples are different. Also slightly further on there is more emphasis on brokerage.

@Beancounter don’t worry – our analysis shows that a lot of people start after Dec and they do fine too. We’ve also got a lot of awesome L3 learnings in our new version of the report coming out soon 😉

@mitch895, Level-2 is a very different ball game. The subjects are same, but concepts count are more and on top of it you need a good understanding. Since there is decrease in number of questions we cannot afford to miss the concepts as the probability of that concept showing on exam as a full item set is very high.
