11 Questions available about this topic.

How many numbers of views are provided per lecture?

You have a total of 10 views per lecture, which are valid till the exam date. This ensures that there is no misuse. If for technical reasons, you have lost views, or you need to revisit a topic beyond 10 times, you can leave a message to the technical team, they will renew your view count. You don't have to pay anything extra.

What is the language of the lecture?

The lectures are bilingual. You need to understand English and Hindi to understand the classes. To make the lectures conversational we have a mix of English and Hindi (70% in English and 30% in Hindi). Please watch some of the lectures on YouTube and then take a call: youtube.com/@aswinibajaj/playlists

Please note: MS Excel is 100% English.

Are all the lectures on the Digital Board?

Classes are taught in 3 formats (Digital board, Whiteboard, and Tablet). The classes will be 100% as per the current syllabus. If you enroll early before the new syllabus is released, then all new chapters, changes, and any additional lectures done will be shared in the App.

You can check the lecture on "What is the mode of teaching?"

Do we provide subject-wise lectures?

We do not provide subject-wise lectures. Aswini Sir only takes all the lectures for all the subjects, which makes logistics difficult. Also, the classes are priced to keep them reasonable for the students.

What is the duration of the lectures?

We continuously update our lectures, so it's difficult to specify the exact duration. However, the approximate duration will be between 200-380 hours across all levels of CFA-FRM.

This duration excludes revision and practice lectures, which can be an additional 50-60 hours, although it can be a little higher also. Each class can be 40 to 60 minutes long, depending on the topic.

Is your coverage Sufficient?

  • 100% of LOS - Learning Outcome Statements are covered - every single chapter, every single subhead, and every single formula are covered in the lectures. Along with guidance lectures on "How to study and practice", Calculator, Revision, attempting paper, Revision, Formulas, etc.; along with Mentor notes on � How to focus, retain, and manage studies with the job, etc. Please let me know if you need a detailed breakup of the same and for which course.
  • On average, the lectures should be around 200-250 hours (the class Lectures except for revision and mentoring lectures). The exact duration can be availed from the coordinator.
  • Also, our lectures aren�t very long as I make students write formulas, flow charts, or short notes in the margin while teaching and not the entire book. But because I explain every single LOS, every single point, formula, and concept, they stretch to the given duration. Hence, in my opinion, this duration is definitely required for building a strong base and concepts in Finance.

When are our lectures recorded, what is the date of the Live class for which the lecture has been provided?

  • We do not have a date on a lecture-wise basis but every single lecture that is provided to you is going to be perfectly in line with the given curriculum and current year exams material.
  • There will be absolutely no misalignment in terms of the lectures and the material or the curriculum of the current year.
  • The date of individual lectures is not possible to provide, because, for example, a topic like �Time value of Money� that is about interest rate calculation cannot change with the exam term. If I am not happy with a lecture or due to any technical issue then I prefer providing the previous term�s lecture. (Of course, they have to be the same).
  • I keep adding more practice lectures with time, without removing the previous year so that a repository of practice is created for the students. If the practice lecture gets irrelevant, I might still provide the same while mentioning it is not important, this way a student who wants further practice, can do so.
  • In case you defer the exam or do not clear the exam, the validity of the lectures is extended and any new chapters, additional lectures done in live, any chapters with changes, even if any chapter is the same and taught again differently is provided through App. Of course, the new chapters are going to be provided only after new term books are released and the chapters have been covered in the live class.

What is the validity of the lectures?

The validity of the course is till you clear your exam. While registering with us you have to select the exam session. You'll get the validity till the selected session. In case you defer or do not qualify for the exam, please leave a WhatsApp to the tech desk with your UserID and the screenshot of the same (deferment/result/ institute payment receipt) as proof. They will help you with more views and extended validity. You don�t have to pay anything extra.

How 1 view is counted?

Once you play a lecture and then close the App, it will count as 1 view. If you just pause the lecture and then resume after some time or go forward - backward but do not close the App, it will not count as 1 view.

Will the lectures cover from Basics?

  • The lectures cover every single chapter and LOS (Subheadings within a chapter). The concepts are protected from the very basics as both Commerce and Non-Commerce students pursue CFA/FRM. The subjects are mostly new, so there is no issue. We start with each topic like Derivatives, Fixed Income, Portfolio, etc from scratch.
  • There are some basic concepts of Maths (primarily statistics) that are required. Statistics are covered from scratch. A revision lecture covering some formulas of class 11-12 is provided.
  • In case a student did not have Maths in 11-12, he might need to learn a couple of extra formulas (Logarithm 2 formulas, Compound interest, and Permutation combination can be calculated directly on a calculator). Terms like Assets, and Liabilities, might be used in specific chapters, and a basic accounting terms class is also provided for students who did not have Commerce.
  • There shall be no issue in grasping concepts, as Finance and subjects in Finance are new. Advise you to attend the 1st class which discusses the syllabus in detail and you might also attend the first few chapters of Quants and then take a call.

Do we provide lectures for Practical Skill Modules(PSM)?

For Practical Skill Modules, there is no testability in the exam. We are not going to provide any lectures for PSMs.

Each module is a 10-15-hour video lecture available on the institute's website. Only one module for each level needs to be completed. There will be no questions in the exam on that. There will be some MCQs on the institute's website that you'll need to answer as you move forward with the lectures. Your strike rate for these questions does not impact your exam score in any manner. The practical skill module has absolutely nothing to do with your exam and exam score. You just have to complete the lectures on the institute's website.

Please check all details on the "Practical Skill Modules"
