I finally got the Stalla material in the mail Friday in addition to the flashcards. Immediately I am reminded why I prefer Stalla to Schweser when I pop in the video lectures to review Quant. The Stalla videos are just head and shoulders above the Schweser ones. I really enjoy listening to them, especially after doing the readings, it helps to really drill the material in my head. David Heatherington did a great job at explaining the concepts and I feel I started to "get it" after watching him. I think it also helps to use the lecture notes while watching the videos, you're forced to take notes to follow along and to me, that's much better than simply highlighting the study guide.
I did fall behind schedule a little, I didn't get to quiz as much on Quant as I would have liked. I began Econ tonight by doing the first reading and then watching the lecture for that section. Ben Jones is doing Econ this time. In Level 1, Peter Olinto did Quant and David Heatherington did Econ so it was weird to see the switch. I'm assuming Peter does FSA though as accounting is his specialty.
At some point I'll post pics of the Stalla material, what you get with the package and comment on some of the good changes I noticed(PassMaster) and not so good ones(lecture notes). I'll eventually update the Secret Sauce document to reflect this as well.
For the rest of this week, the plan is to do some more Econ reading tomorrow followed by the lecture and wrap up the readings+videos for all of Econ by Friday. I want to take the weekend to catch up on the Quant and Econ quizzing because I want to take my first progress test on Monday to see where I stand. I also need to redo the Ethics quizzing since I got the software so late.
Here's a link to the Stalla Weekly Guidance. This is good stuff to read, even if you don't use Stalla.
