CFA Level III Study Packages

Level III of the CFA exam requires demonstration of the same skills as Level II but tests your ability to make and write about judgment calls. The constructed response section of the Level III exam is the biggest difference between the previous levels. You must answer open-ended questions that do not have multiple-choice questions. The historical pass rate is 55%.

Our study packages include the tools you need to master every exam topic, and experience the structure of the exam before it happens. Plus, you’ll get access to an exclusive community forum with added insight from fellow candidates. Choose one of Kaplan Schweser's industry leading study packages, or compare your package options.

There are a lot of opinions out there on what makes a good study plan—simply because what works for one individual does not mean it will work for another.

We create packages and materials based off of data and insights from the hundreds of thousands of candidates we’ve helped pass the CFA exam over the past 30+ years. The Activity Feed (included in all packages) provides you with strategically placed weekly tasks to form a comprehensive study plan that covers the entire curriculum. We recommend sticking to this plan as closely as possible and using the Performance Metrics to understand which topics you’ve mastered and which need additional practice.

We also recommend using the month prior to exam day strictly for review. Attend a Review Workshop, read Schweser's Secret Sauce®, and take a mock exam to gauge your readiness.
