Hi, my friend! Like other certifications, a CFA is proof that you have expertise in financial analysis. To be perfectly honest, CFAs are generally very difficult. If you can pass all three levels of exams, your knowledge and skills in financial analysis are most certainly on the expert level. Many companies and schools want to see that you have started your CFA test journey, because this shows your career commitment and future potential to become successful in this area. Remember that this certification only shows your expertise in analysis and not other aspects of finance. If you want to be a trader, for example, there is no point in getting this certification. All in all, a CFA is a great program to help you achieve your career goals in the financial analysis field. It will certainly be helpful for you in getting into a finance degree program or in landing a great job in the industry. Let me know if you have any other questions or concerns!

别的我不敢说,至少申UK境内的finance硕士,过CFA level 1毫无用处。如果你过了level 2甚至level 3,那只能说明你已经有了工作经验,那么其实只是工作经验帮你申到了学校或者工作而已,是不是CFA的功劳很难讲。 |
