2021 Level I Study Packages

Level I of the CFA® exam tests knowledge and comprehension of investment tools and ethical and professional standards. The curriculum mainly focuses on recalling formulas and definitions from memory, and most of the material is a straightforward introduction to the concepts covered. But, don’t let this fool you. The historical pass rates for the Level I exam are the lowest of all three levels with only 43% of candidates passing. Our packages combine multiple study tools to help you learn the material and apply your knowledge to exam questions.

Premium—Now with Review!

This complete study package now includes our Core + Instruction + Review tools to equip you for exam-day success. We understand everyone learns differently, so you can either follow the structured study plan we’ve built for you…or you can personalize a study plan that works around your schedule. No matter how you choose to study, you’ll have a team of CFA experts teaching and supporting you from start to finish.

Your exam preparation begins with a personalized Activity Feed that schedules weekly tasks based on your study time frame and exam date. Each task is strategically placed to follow our proven study plan that covers the entire curriculum. Begin preparing for your exam by reading SchweserNotes™, practicing the concepts with integrated quizzes from the SchweserPro™ QBank, and learning from CFA Program instructors in your OnDemand classes. Once you’ve learned the material, test your performance with our Practice Exams to measure your readiness for the actual CFA exam.
