If you have studied commerce already it is a good refresher course on the entire bachelors degree (plus a little extra). If you haven't studied commerce, this exam will be really hard work but totally bring you up to speed on all the basics, very valuable! The CA is focused on accounting, and the CFA is focused on finance and investing. Cheers, Tom Hey Andrew,

Looks like a pretty worthwhile course to do. How does it vary from the CA though? Thanks Tom! Looks like a pretty worthwhile course to do. How does it vary from the CA though?
