How to Plan for FRM Level 1?

[Pflik]

Hi @Pegasus21 GARP just yesterday released the 2014 AIMs. We are currently analyzing them. (Given tomorrow is Thanksgiving in the US, I won't post an analysis until next week). Yes, 6 months is sufficient. With respect to packages, my basic guidance is:

• If you don't know why you might want Professional, you do not need Professional: it gives access to the spreadsheets, which require some engagement but give unequivocally concrete "illustrations." Customers who consume XLS have a good reason, typically. Then the issue is:
• Do you want or need videos? If yes, Advanced
• If no, and questions and notes are sufficient, then Basic

I hope that helps, thanks, David

The Focus Review Videos are also in the Professional package. That's probably a really good recap at the end of your studying period (I know it certainly refreshed my mind the few weeks before the exam)
