        Was thinking whether:

        a. there was enough interest to be more organised in setting up in-person study groups, and
        b. whether there was enough critical mass in certain locations (e.g. London, NYC) that this would be possible

        With that in mind, answer the poll and reply with where you’d be happy to attend a regular study group (e.g. in the weekends, or after work)!

          We could potentially organise a London and NYC study group between @vincentt and @boontharika… 🙂

            Awesome. @vincentt, @boontharika, @beancounter, I’ll PM you separately to see if we can organise something. If anyone else is interested in moderating (basically organising / herding people) just get in touch. As moderator you also get to decide where and when to meet 🙂

              More of a lone wolf in this matter.

                  @zee Yes! Even if its once or twice a week – it would help keep me on track.

                  I wish I could have a group I could study with since I am self studying for lvl 1 so it would be nice to have a support group to keep me motivated and it would keep me focused.

                    I’d be more non committal, but it’s good to join a community to get motivated!

                      I was in a study group sponsored by my university that met together once a week. It was really helpful to review questions and go through practice tests and grade them together etc. It was a good motivation to stay on track with my studies, and it was nice to have people that I could go to for help.

                        @snippy I tried the lone wolf thing but the socialite side of me was not happy. Need human interaction to study and stay sane.
