What Kaplan Schweser Customers Say

Philip

“I would not have been able to pass Levels II and III were it not for your talented staff and thorough program materials. I found the videos, calendar, QBank, and the practice exams all essential in my preparation. You also did a great job laying out the unique challenges of Level III and the different mindset required to pass it. I ended up passing all the exams of both the CFA® and FRM® programs on the first shot."

Craig

“Many thanks for all of your help over the last three years. I genuinely wouldn’t have passed all three levels, let alone the first time, if it wasn’t for the whole team at Kaplan Schweser. Thank you also to all the support staff and everyone else in the organization. The service levels, support, and administration are always first rate, and I couldn’t speak highly enough of you. You’re a great company.”
