How does championship Golden State Warriors top shooter Stephen Curry achieve his high average points per game, top three points and jump shots rankings? He’s got a winning coach in the background.
Check out this video of Curry talking about his coach. A coach does many things for an elite athlete. Curry credits assistant coach Bruce Fraser for keeping him in the highest ranks.
<div>Bruce Fraser is Curry’s shooting coach. Here’s how he does it.</div> <div>Practice today like you don’t know who your opponent is: stay sharp on what you’re good atDon’t have a number in mind just go out there and do your best every time (after Curry made 84/100 three-pointers)Camaraderie — find a group who shares your experience and cheers you on (even if it’s a small one)</div> <div>We believe that there are three tools owned by every CFA candidate: time, talent, and perseverance. Curry is not the tallest guy in the league, and so his success comes from maximizing each tool.</div> <div>For CFA candidates we customize programs for each client according to their unique advantages:</div> <div> <div>Timediscipline and focus</div> <div>Talentknow what you know master what you don’t know learn how to perform on exam day</div> <div>Perseverancemindset</div> </div> <div>Lead coach, Cynthia Harrington. gained the CFA charter, founded an SEC-registered large cap value, became a financial journalist and interviewed the top minds in finance, co-authored Corporate Finance book for Level II, and now offers a track record of a high rate of success for coaching clients in meeting exam, career and investment decision goals.</div> <div>Programs to fit your scheduled: candidatesuccess.us/programs</div> <div>Share with your group:</div> <p> </p> </p> <p>
How does this relate to the CFA exams and prep? At all levels you will be preparing without knowledge of the opponent.
This is true for all levels of the CFA exam.
Level I is obvious; before taking Level I the whole process is new and unknown. What’s deceptive with the CFA exams is that all levels have a different format. Candidates who assume that passing Level I means passing Level II are often sadly mistaken.
The Level II exam demands that candidates synthesize and integrate concept in the item set questions. Level III ramps up the skills needed to pass the previous level.
Practice, repetition, teamwork are how Curry’s coach describes the keys to success on the basketball court. Those same steps lead to success in the CFA exam room.
Practice: in all three levels knowledge of formulae is key to answering questions. Practice goes beyond memorization.
Practice that achieves understanding comes from working problems and applying the formulae.
