This review is from: InsidersChoice to The Candidate's Guide for 2005 Level I (CFA) Chartered Financial Analyst Learning Outcome Statements (With Download eBook and Exams) (Paperback)

Finally an affordable and well written book for the CFA Test! The book covers AIMR's Learning Outcome Statements exceptionally well and the information covers what I think is going to be on the test in June. Unlike a few other titles, this book is more than adequately priced especially when concidering how much its going to help me with the test!!! Thanks again guys!
