I've narrowed it down to Schweser and Mark Meldrum. Haven't made a final decision

I did the qbank for schweser (or the base subscription) + MM. if your company isn’t paying, do MM and use the CFAI qbanks and mm questions and videos. The review question videos he did had a lot of questions I saw on the test.

Schweser by far your best bet.

Quick follow-up ... What in particular about Schweser did you like/dislike?
Based on forums, it seems that they have a good question bank but lectures are so-so. Just trying to decide whether to splurge on a package vs. à la carte ...

Yes to all that IBA1 said. I didn’t watch any lectures, but the books explained the concepts really well and the question bank was on par with the exam questions

I tutor it based on schwesser e book

Been for a company for over 2years. The executive team is very much a boy's club. There are a few women in management roles but zero ethnicity diversity there. I raised my concern to HR in feb. And they are just now deciding to do something about it. They want me (white female) to put together a diversity committee. Any suggestions on how to go about it? How to attract volunteers to the committee? I want to make sure I get the right people involved in this, to push for changes.

Okay so I’m a newly licensed attorney in a very conservative part of TX. I just got my first job offer and I was worried at first thinking that I was in “Trump” territory, but I tested the waters in my interview and spoke about police injustices and how prosecutor’s job is not only to protect victims, but also defendants from police injustices. I have to let them know by tomorrow, but thoughts on if this is a good career move for someone who wants to work in transactional work-RE or Bankruptcy?

Hi Fishes,

This is in regards with my resignation. I have resigned on 22nd March (LWD : 22 June ) on medical grounds. Since then, my hr has asked for my prescriptions and medical certificates to give me an early release.

But yesterday, She is stating that my lwd is revised to 18th April with a clause that since my release is on medical grounds I can't join any other orgs before 22june. If joined, there will be problem in background verification.

Please help me out fishes with your advices
