My CFA Level 2 Study Plan

As soon as I knew I passed Level one I've made my order from Schweser, sadly the books wont be available untill end of October ( will be shipped not before Oct 28th ).

so I've decided to read the CFAI material until i receive my Schweser books,
so far i finished SS3 Quant, SS4 Ecoomics and SS5 and SS6 Accounting but i was not that dedicated much in studying it was more into a reading than real studying.

my CFA LEVEL 2 study plan will be the same as my L1 Focus on the high weights first so i wont be pressured when i get closer to the exam date.
