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.

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.

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.

Bated 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.

Excellent service Excellent service, used for both levels of my CAIA study and for Level 1 could not speak of then higher, notes and practice questions were excellent. Used again for level 2 and much the same quality although some minor technical difficulties with the site at unoptimal times. Would highly recommend overall
