The Curriculum

What Level 1 Actually Covers

Ten topic areas, 3,000+ pages. The 43–45% pass rate reflects the gap between encountering material and mastering it — which is what Finance Coach's structured sessions are sequenced to close.

Topic Area Exam Weight Self-Study Struggle Finance Coach Approach
Ethics & Professional Standards 15–20% Feels abstract, disconnected from real decisions Case-based — judgment, not regulation
Quantitative Methods 6–9% Formulas without financial context Application before formula
Economics 6–9% Feels removed from investing Every framework tied to market impact
Financial Statement Analysis 11–14% Highest volume; most underestimate the time it takes Largest session allocation, taught progressively
Corporate Issuers 6–9% Abstract governance concepts Real Egyptian & MENA corporate cases
Equity Investments 11–14% Models applied mechanically Why a model applies, before how
Fixed Income 11–14% Duration & convexity confuse without quant prep Diagrams before derivations
Derivatives 5–8% Most-deferred, costliest to skip Taught last, on solid prerequisites
Alternative Investments 7–10% Broad, unclear priorities Focused on what's actually tested
Portfolio Management 8–12% Integrates everything prior Taught last, as the capstone

Finance Coach's sequence isn't the curriculum's order — it's the order that builds understanding. When a topic doesn't connect, ask your doctor on WhatsApp and get an answer the same day.

Is This You?

Built for a Specific Type of
Candidate

Accurate self-assessment leads to better outcomes than aspirational ones.

 

Finance Coach Serves You If:

Generic & Remote

Not sure which applies to you? Book a consultation or attend the webinar below anyway — it costs you nothing but time.

 

Two Lower-Commitment Options

Not Ready to Book Yet?

Both are free and without obligation.

 

The Free Lectures

“How to Evaluate the CFA — and Choose the Right Preparation Approach.” A Free recorded session with Finance Coach’s lead doctor — not a sales pitch.

A Consultation With an Adviser

A 20-minute conversation — not a sales rep. If Finance Coach isn’t the right fit, they’ll say so.

Format: WhatsApp or video call    Duration: 20 minutes

Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Straight answers — no qualification, no evasion.

What are the examination details — cost, questions, format, timing?

Cost: USD $1,140 standard / $940 early, per level, paid to CFA Institute. Questions: Level 1 — 180 MCQs. Level 2 — 88 vignettes. Level 3 — constructed-response + vignettes. Format: computer-based, Prometric Cairo. Timing: Level 1 in Feb & May; Levels 2–3 in May.

No separate form — eligibility is assessed during your free consultation. If a place is available in the current intake, it's confirmed on the spot; otherwise you're on the priority list for the next one.

Core: instruction, Hybrid access, WhatsApp, one mock. Accelerator adds UWorld, the Accountability System, three mocks. Elite adds live lectures, unlimited mocks, and Access Until You Pass.

Accelerator/Elite: flagged automatically, catch-up path within 48 hours. Core: attend online, or use the recording. One missed session isn't meant to become a missed week.

[X]% of students who finish the programme sit in the first window — well above the self-study average. Current pass-rate data is shared at your consultation.

Elite: access continues into the next window free, with a debrief and retake plan. Accelerator/Core: debrief available, retake priced then.

Confirmed at consultation, no hidden fees. For context: CFA Institute charges $1,140/level; global platforms charge $429–$1,499/level without Arabic instruction. Finance Coach's EGP pricing is calibrated locally.

Yes — enrolment is per level. Most who pass Level 1 stay with Finance Coach, but that's decided after passing, not before.
