NLIt'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.

GBGood 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.

GBAccurate and Incredibly Useful for CFA level I I feel like the concise modules and questions were really impactful in getting me prepared for the exam, and gave me great feedback on questions I got wrong. The tools available were very user-friendly and easily accessible. The only critique I have is that I couldn't change my exam date or planned preparation date in the system, but that didn't impact me too much. I will be using Kaplan again as I prepare for the CFA level II, and highly recommend their services over the

LUGood dashboard, bad customer service I liked a lot the dashboard, I can also say the Mock were similar as difficulty compared to the Exam even if the questions were totally different. But what was very bad was the Customer Service. I got the books a lot in delay and also when I asked it was provided me a fake delivery date. It’s a pity because with a better Customer Service I would have given 5 star

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on the fact that the classes are 3 years old, and a number of the errors I have identified relate to the fact that an outdated curriculum was being cited or used.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