Thanks for the advice. I'm not "genius smart", but without studying I took a practice test and got about 55% right. Now, maybe that next 20% of improvement/studying is where the genius comes in, but I'd like to see how intuitive the material is to me once I start studying. I won't sacrifice my family, so if I can't pass while being a good father I'll chase another dream.....

Considering random guessing gets you 33%, you didn't exactly blow it out of the water. Also, the third party tests are significantly easier than the actual CFA exam. However, you only need a ~65% to pass.

The real problem is that L1 is a cakewalk. It's just a trap to lure you into taking L2, which will eat your soul and then lead you to taking L3, which will turn a sane man crazy. Unless you have a super chill job where you can study a 2 or 3 hours a day at your desk, you're gong to give up a lot in your personal life.
