Does CFA test require a high level of mathematics and English?

For candidates who have not yet started the zero-based CFA exam, CFA is actually not as difficult as expected. Let's sort out the requirements of CFA exam for English and mathematics.

1, English:

CFA is an international certificate. According to the requirements, its examination language can only be English. This makes many candidates who are not confident about their English flinch. In fact, CFA's requirements for English are not as high as everyone thinks. According to CFA official answers over the years, level 4 is enough. CFA exam focuses not on how candidates use English grammar, but on the analysis of investment priorities, such as securities analysis and portfolio management, financial statement analysis, financial derivatives and so on.

2. Mathematics:

Some people think that if you want to take CFA, you must be good at math. Actually, this is a misunderstanding. Although CFA level 1 and level 2 have calculation problems, the proportion is not high, and the requirements for mathematics are not great. Even if you don't know calculus, you will fail in advanced mathematics. It is no exaggeration to say that as long as there is high school mathematics, the operation problems of these calculation problems can be solved. As for whether the calculation can be done correctly, it still depends on the mastery of professional knowledge.

Suggestions on CFA exam review

1, do the problem

We should grasp the key points of each year's topic, or find the rules from the exercises. Most conceptual problems have no traps, and neither do calculation problems. Generally speaking, formulas are applicable to conceptual problems. It's important to remember the formula. When the exam is approaching, you can take out the real questions of previous years, read more books, find more rules, focus on practice, and combine the knowledge you have learned with your own experience.

2. English reading ability

It is very helpful for students with good English foundation to prepare for CFA. Candidates with poor English foundation must spend more time studying in reading. Arrange yourself to read more and read more CFA courses and practice materials every day.

Step 3 summarize and review

Finally, summary and review are the most important. If you don't summarize, you don't know what went wrong. Correct and review the wrong questions well to make your knowledge more solid. Secondly, do more simulation questions and grasp the time consumed by each question.
