        Hey guys, just wanted to post some lesser-known resources that I’ve found particularly helpful for L3:

        1. PassingScore L3 iPhone app – It costs $20, but it basically has hundreds of pre-made flashcards, grouped by topic area, reading, and LOS. Should be great practice for the morning session. If you don’t have time to make your own flashcards, definitely check this app out. Well worth the money, IMO.

        2. If you haven’t heard of Quizlet.com yet, check it out. It’s a site where people can create decks of flashcards that can be used by a variety of different apps/programs. I’ve seen one on there specifically for L3 formulas, and I think there are more too.

          @sophie I usually use the app to review in those valuable spare moments when I don’t have my study materials with me (riding in the car, waiting in line at the grocery store, etc.)

          The app doesn’t have many formulas, it’s mostly focused on list-based stuff (e.g., list the four axioms of utility theory; what are the government policies that promote economic growth).

            Oh cool, so it’s complementary to the notes then. Makes great use of commuting time! Thanks for sharing it with the community 🙂

              Thanks for sharing @padniaki. @Tonypetrunin, maybe this is of use as you were looking at apps too? Not sure if you need a flash cards one though.

              How do you incorporate these in your studies then? Doesn’t the app have formulae written down?

                  Hmm.. don’t seem to be much review on that app? Looks interesting though @padniaki

                    I came across this link which is also helpful for a quick glance through the syllabus: http://www.alchemistsacademy.com/cfa-level-3/

                      I will also add that Kaplan’s free Ethics app is outstanding as well. Great for quizzing yourself when you have a few extra minutes.

                        Thanks @padniaki. Seems like you love apps a lot and tried most of them! It’s great to hear user reviews on those. So what do you think is missing (if any) in the app world for CFA related stuff?
