sambert,

I had ABSOLUTELY no background in finance prior to taking this exam. I started entirely from scratch. So don't let lack of prior exposure be a distraction.

As far as how much study time? It took me two weeks of intensive daily study to feel adequately prepared for this one. BUT....it really depends on the person. There is NO right amount of study time that will work for everyone. I would simply suggest that you start studying and keep going until YOU feel adequately prepared. If it takes three days, great! If it takes three weeks, that's also great! Do whatever it takes for YOU to pass YOUR exam.

Best of luck
