EduPristine’s Level II CFA® Preparatory Training

Congratulations to you for clearing the Level I CFA® exams. It is a huge achievement since candidates find Level I comparatively difficult, and hence the passing rates for Level I CFA® are lower than the passing rates for Level II  CFA® and Level III  CFA®. But this was only the first step towards the CFA Charter, and to obtain it, a candidate needs to clear all the three levels of the CFA® Program – Level I CFA, Level II CFA, and Level III CFA. Any candidate requires a minimum of 6 months of preparation for each CFA level. 

  

Level II CFA® has the same topics or subjects as Level I CFA®. But with each level, the topics are covered in depth. A candidate can appear for the Level II CFA® exams in the months of May and August. Previously, candidates were allowed to appear for the exam only once a year in the month of June. The exams are in a Multiple Choice Questions format, and the candidate has to answer all the 88 multiple choice questions. The exam is conducted in two sessions – the morning session and the afternoon session. Both the sessions are 2 hours 15 minutes long and contain 44 questions each. All the questions in both sessions are equally weighted and based on all ten topics. There are no penalties or negative markings for wrong answers in the exam.
