Just passed lvl 1. Probably studied on average an hour a day for about 2/3 of a year then two weekends of 10-12 hour study days before the test. One piece of advice for lvl 1 - don’t study difficult details until you’ve gone through the basics of all the material. The test didn’t really get into tough specifics like FAR or REG

Thank you! This is very useful. I only have accounting background so a lot contexts are difficult for me. Do you think taking one month vacation before the exam day will be very helpful if only study 1 to 2 hours a day during the workdays and 8 hours during the weekend?
