大學生能不能提前一年學習CFA考試知識點?

在后臺看到同學都在問,大學期間CFA考試只能在大四考,大四的時候想要考研,沒有時間復習CFA知識點,那我可不可以提早一年學習CFA考試知識點,在大四的時候專心備考考研,到該考CFA一級考試的時候稍微復習一下可以嗎?

我這樣告訴你吧!這樣的考試方式實不可取的,CFA考試每年的考綱都會有一定的變化,如果你考試當年不學習,直接考是不可以的。即便你稍微復習一下也是不行的,我們可以看看每年的CFA一級的*率,不到百分之五十,那些還是全心全意參加備考的人的通過率,你還想通過考試和考研,這有點不現(xiàn)實!

如果你是想好好的通過這兩項考試的話,你可以先把你的CFA考試知識點弄的*懂,在考試當年再看看CFA考剛變化的部分,將知識點全部在梳理一遍,可能就會好一點!有2020考CFA考試的考生趕緊看看2020年的考綱變化!
