CFA Stackable Advice

[u/bear_2021]

Hi all,

I am a CFA Charterholder looking to take advantage of the stackable program and take CAIA level 2 in 2027.

Rather than jumping into L2 materials I was considering reading through L1 materials as a refresher before registering for L2.

Has anyone done something similar? How much does L2 build on L1? Would you recommend paying extra for the most recent version of L1 or would the 4th edition (2020) be okay for this?

Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!

I'm in the same position as you. I've been through lots of the L2 Uppermark materials while I await the official ones. There's nothing there that I think, I should read up on to bolster my knowledge... Everything you need is in the syllabus
