About CFA Master

CFA Master is a CFA Level 1 revision companion. A revision companion — not a replacement for your study material.

What CFA Master is, and what it isn't

You study from the CFA Institute curriculum or a prep provider. CFA Master is where you capture and revise what you learned: 59 condensed revision modules across 10 subjects, each with an editable cheat sheet and mind map, plus 725 flashcards, 190 quiz questions and a 83-formula sheet.

It is not a full CFA course and doesn't replace your curriculum or prep provider. Our revision modules follow the 2026 Level I curriculum. For what changes from February 2027, see 2027 vs 2026 topic weights and the CFA Level 1 syllabus.

Where our facts come from

Exam dates, fees, topic weights, pass rates and syllabus facts come from CFA Institute's own published pages and results announcements. When CFA Institute doesn't publish a figure (for example, the minimum passing score), we say it is an estimate and never present it as official.

Each fact page prints the date we last checked it against its source:

How we keep it accurate

  • Every date, fee, weight and pass rate lives in one data file per page, so a figure can't differ between pages.
  • When CFA Institute publishes new results, dates or curriculum changes, we update the figure and the "last checked" date together.
  • We don't label study content with a curriculum year until it has been updated to match that year.
  • Blog posts show the date they were last updated.
