Hi
You havent mentioned when your exams are due. I’m assuming you are taking the Feb21 L1 exams.
For L1, the only and best way to be exam ready is to practice questions. For CFA program, you are required to understand the concepts– no need of retaining for purpose of reproducing like other traditional written exams. Only practicing questions will ensure that you are able to recall the concept when its asked in the form of a question.
Advice: there are 2500+ questions on CFA candidate resource. You got to practice each and every q if time permits. And dont forget to take CFA Mocks in the last leg of exam prep.
Note: Do not blindly focus on accuracy. Reviewing why an answer was correct or incorrect is equally important than just getting it right.
I have carried out a deep analysis of the Case Study– provided multiple answers wherever there was a scope of ambiguity. It’s a subjective paper and the answers are based on my judgement and are not provided by ICAI. As always, confusion arises (and will arise) when ICAI comes out with their suggestRead more

Disclaimer:
When they do, please look at them in detail and remember that ICAI’s answers are supposed to be given more importance (even if it defies logic) than the answers that I have reproduced below.
Note:
For Jan 21 exam, I will be sharing a number of insights in the coming days.
Also, I have already announced fresh batches in both English and Hindi for RM to begin from 4th Jan Live at Home on the Ulurn Portal. These are obviously for the May 21 exams and beyond.

Prelude: This is a brilliantly designed paper with new stuff and challenges. It is impossible to score high marks in this paper by just repeatedly solving past questions as it used to happen “Once Upon a Time”. So, students are advised to gear up to the challenge and study conceptually rather than gross memorization of past ICAI publications.
Disclaimer: Solutions as provided below are to the best of my understanding and may not match with ICAI………you know “badde log, baddi baate”, so students are advised to refer to ICAI solution whenever it is released. At the risk of sounding repetitive, let me reiterate that you are supposed to follow ICAI solutions –irrespective of any stupidity encountered therein.
Ohhh! You felt I’m disrespecting them?………”EXACTLY!!”

Most economists need a master’s degree or Ph.D. and to pursue the same, bachelors is a pre-requisite in general. But there are universities which offer programs for non-economics background candidates also or may require you to take certain course or test as a pre-requisite to apply for the MastersRead more

But there are universities which offer programs for non-economics background candidates also or may require you to take certain course or test as a pre-requisite to apply for the Masters program.
This depends on the university of your choice and need to check with them specifically as far as eligibility is concerned.
Given your Bsc background and interest in Economics, choosing to pursue the CFA program was an excellent choice as it opens many doors for you.
Concentrate and gaining your CFA charter will allow you to explore an alternate (out of the box) route to pursue a career in economics. You may target getting into organisations like Int Banks (World Bank, Asian Dev Bank etc), Research &/or Rating agencies like Crisil, S&P, Moodys and the like and work your way from up there- working with these org may act as the stepping stone to get into core economic profiles.
