GBCAIA 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.

CALecture videos helped to to understand… Lecture videos helped to to understand concepts as I do not have prior financial background in my education Having studied science and switching to finances studies was challenging Qbank is nice as it further helps to elaborate the comprehension of the study material

GBMany Mistakes, Great User Interface Pros: I really like Kaplan's User Interface and the mix of quizzes, classes, and reading. I think the online classes led by Martin Stoynov are very helpful. I also appreciate the ability to email an instructor with questions. Cons: There are many, many errors in both the books and the quizzes. I have only submitted about 25% of these errors through the online "report an error" tool, and it worries me that there haven't been any user notices for the other errors I've noticed. I am not confident that the Kaplan curriculum is sufficiently mirroring the FRM official curriculum, based on the fact that the classes are 3 years old, and a number of the errors I have identified relate to the fact that an outdated curriculum was being cited or used. The instructors, apart from Martin, are ineffective and do not enhance my understanding of the material. We only go through calculator instructions in Martin's recorded class: Kaplan has not provided any calculator instructions for key FRM learning needs like bond pricing.

CAKaplan is 100% worth the $ The schweser notes are great they summarize to make them much shorter than the CFA content. But still long enough to grasp the concept. All the extra practice questions were great. Doing practice questions is how you remember material better than just reading it. Overall great experience.

IEBated customer into buying a study… Bated customer into buying a study package only to to be informed months later that certain products of that study packages were not going to be made available. Would recommend going with UpperMark and not Kaplan.
