Before I get into this, I know many people are going to recommend doing something outside of studying and the typical CFA hermit life, such as working out or binge drinking (or both). However, I found it easier to pick up certain hobbies or activities that helped me apply and aid to learning the new material. For example, I started listening to different business and economics podcasts when I was studying for that certain topic. Now that I’ve cleared level 1 I’m going to start going to my local CFA society meetings and luncheons to see what’s up and try to live a better finance life.
Has anyone else here picked up different activities that aided their experience?
