Overall, the CAMELS Approach helped me to structure my knowledge, this way I am now able to dive deeper. Especially, content on market risk was new to me.
I liked the structure of the revision courses, I felt that they were really helpful in preparing for the exam. I used the online portal a lot for the practice questions - trying the make the "slices" of the pie chart green was a really good motivational technique for me.
My tutor Azmi was the best tutor I have had throughout my CFA experience. Engaging, knowledgeable and always open to answer questions in breaks and after class.
Simon Holohan was a brilliant tutor. He explained both the tricky and simple topics very well, but more importantly gave one an idea of what the institute might be looking for rather than just covering content. He also fielded questions very well kept the class engaged throughout the lesson, not an easy task from 6 - 8:30pm after a day of work!
Fitch courses have an excellent reputation and this proved correct for this course. It was practically-based, with a good mix of theory and practice. The skill of the trainer kept things relevant and interesting over the three days.
