Key Assessment Points of CFA Level 3 Exam: Portfolio Management
The third level question type has strong subjectivity and a comprehensive coverage of knowledge points. In the Level 3 exam, the focus of the exam has completely changed, so it is important to watch the video first because Level 3 emphasizes a whole, and you must integrate various knowledge points into a whole, unlike Level 1 and Level 2 exams that only focus on individual knowledge points for testing.
In the third level, it is important to combine various knowledge points, so it is necessary to first look at the third level knowledge points and form a rough overall thinking. Forming a comprehensive financial thinking is extremely important for the third level review.
If you start reading books when reviewing the Level 3 exam, even if you have finished reading the five books required for CFA Level 3, you have no idea what Level 3 is about. The Level 3 exam mainly focuses on investment portfolios, and the content related to investment portfolios is quite comprehensive.
2、 How to prepare for the CFA exam
Because CFA textbooks involve many and scattered knowledge points, it is necessary for candidates to revisit the previously learned content and focus on memorizing the key points they have marked to deepen their impression. This will also be helpful for learning new content, gradually connecting the learned content together to form a complete knowledge system.
