Good content - late release soured my experience I generally like the content. But the release date for May exam was late February. The estimated time to complete the material per week is 30-35 hours. This is a very large commitment while working full. I wish it was released early Jan as that would greatly reduce my stress level.

Disappointing prep materials for 2024 exams When I used Kaplan for CAIA L1, everything was great. Great instructor who provided helpful examples and explanations, and all materials were completed, delivered, and unlocked on time. I don’t know what happened this year but everything has been delayed, materials and activities are locked and not complete, and the instructor for L2 doesn’t explain or provide enough context to help understand the concepts.

Flexible and focused CFA program Kaplan provides you a great program to start your CFA journey. It helps you get organised and focus on the most important topics.

The support needed The study plan really is the cornerstone of getting through all the material in an organized manner and on your own. Kaplan provides the tools needed to learn and apply the concepts in order to successfully obtain the charter, but there's one thing they can't provide, the discipline required to get through it all, that is sold separately.

They have helped me get through CFA… They have helped me get through CFA Level 1 in the 90th percentile and have also helped tremendously in preparing me for level 2. The combination of thorough exposition of difficult topics and hands-on assistance make Kaplan great.
