MKGood experience I used only Kaplan for the questions, and I really liked how you can customize quizzes on your own. I think that the concept with videos is good, but I didn’t use them as I find it hard to follow.

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.

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on the fact that the classes are 3 years old, and a number of the errors I have identified relate to the fact that an outdated curriculum was being cited or used.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.

GBVideo 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.
