How Masar-CFA teaches
Start with the diagnostic, follow the route, practise in the exam format and finish with mocks. Here is what happens at each step.
Take the diagnostic
A timed check of 30 questions across the 10 topics in 45 minutes, marked on our server. It shows where to start. It is free with your trial.
Follow the route
Study the learning modules in order. Each one has the same parts: a hook, short lessons, formulas, worked examples, the traps, a recap, flashcards and questions. Topics are weighted as in the exam, so the heavy ones get the time.
Practise until it is automatic
Three-option questions with a full explanation, 148 generators that make fresh numbers, and 21 concept labs.
Review what you forget
1,411 flashcards come back just before you would forget them, and every wrong answer goes to your mistake bank.
Sit mock exams
6 fixed mocks that share no question, then adaptive mocks that avoid questions you have already seen and target your weakest modules. 180 questions in two sessions of 135 minutes.
Every learning module has the same parts, in the same order.
102 learning modules in 10 topic areas. You always know what comes next.
- A hook: why the module matters and how the exam tests it
- Short lessons that teach every learning outcome of the module
- Formulas, with when to use them and how they are misused
- Worked examples with new numbers
- The traps candidates fall into
- Memory hooks and a one-line recap for each lesson
- Flashcards for spaced review
- Three-option practice questions, each with a full explanation
- A bank of questions kept back for mock exams
Drill, explore, then test yourself.
- Generators: 148 question generators make fresh numbers every time, so a drill never repeats and you cannot memorise the answer.
- Concept labs: 21 labs let you change the inputs of a model, such as duration, option payoffs or the efficient frontier, and watch the answer move.
- Mistake bank: every wrong answer is kept with its explanation until you get it right.
- Lesson videos: 2 lesson videos so far, about 34 minutes in all, with chapters you can jump to and a transcript beside the picture. More are being added.
- AI tutor: ask a question about a lesson. It has a daily limit, it can be wrong, and the lesson text is the reference.
Built in the exam shape.
Each mock has 180 three-option questions in two sessions of 90 questions and 135 minutes, with the 10 topics at their exam weights. Mocks 1 to 6 are fixed and share no question. Later mocks are adaptive and avoid questions you have already sat.
Guidance, not a promise. Mock and diagnostic scores show where you stand. They are not predictions of your exam result, and Masar-CFA gives no official score.
