It's hard work but Kaplan makes it enjoyable. The course is presented in a clear and enjoyable manner with very skilled instructors. Every reading comes with slides so no need to pause and make notes. I especially appreciate the automated planning that Kaplan provides and the ability to track your progress on your journey. This way you know if your on track for the exam and you'll know beforehand if you need to increase the pace or if you can slow down a bit. Highly recommended.

CAIA L2 Feedback Video On-Demand instructor for CAIA L2 is poor quality compared to L1. Instructor Link questions do not get answered and require multiple follow ups, especially for L2. Study materials (e.g. Schweser notes and On-Demand videos) for L2 were not available in a timely manner and were uploaded disjointedly/sporadically.

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.

Platform is great but… Platform is great but…. There a few glitches, like to haves: 1) when making custom quizzes, it doesn’t always honour the question type criteria (e.g. don’t use previously answered questions). 2) it would be nice if the app had access to the lesson videos

Video Courses Set Kaplan Apart Overall, great materials. The on demand video courses were particularly helpful and very clear. Seeing formulas used in action and explained step-by-step really allowed the concepts to sink in. The cost is really all that is keeping the Kaplan Schweser materials from a five star review - the price is *very* steep.
