Why build your own CFA menu deck

A CFA menu study set helps most when it matches the readings and topic areas your own prep course uses. Generic decks often skip the formulas, standards, or wording your practice questions rely on. Starting from your own material keeps the cards aligned with what you will actually be tested on.

Cards come from the exact readings you were assigned, not a generic list.
Each topic area can have its own deck and review schedule.
Formulas can be written on the front with a worked example on the back.
Quizzes with explanations show why a wrong answer was wrong.

Example CFA Level I flashcards by topic area

Under Ethics, what does Standard I(C) cover?Misrepresentation. Members and candidates must not knowingly make false statements or mislead others about their work or credentials.

What is the present value formula for a single cash flow?PV = FV / (1 + r)^n. It discounts a future amount back to today at rate r over n periods.

What does the Fisher equation relate?Nominal interest rate, real interest rate, and expected inflation. Approximately, nominal rate equals real rate plus expected inflation.

What does a bond's modified duration measure?Approximate percentage change in the bond's price for a 1 percentage point change in yield. Higher duration means more rate sensitivity.

What is the Standard I(A) requirement in the CFA Institute Code and Standards?Knowledge of the Law. Members and candidates must understand and comply with applicable laws, rules, and regulations.

Generate the full set

Built from your materials

Upload PDFs, PPTX slides, DOCX files, plain notes, or photos of pages. The text is read and turned into cards that follow your actual curriculum.

Spaced repetition

Cards you miss come back sooner and cards you know come back later, so review time goes to the topics that need it most.

Quizzes and mind maps too

Switch to multiple choice, true/false, or short answer quizzes with explanations, or map a topic area as a mind map.

How it works

Upload your CFA readings or notes

Add the PDF, slides, or photos of the topic area you are studying, such as Ethics or Fixed Income.

Generate and review the cards

DeckOwl creates flashcards you can edit, then you study them in the browser on the free plan.

Study on a schedule

Spaced repetition brings each card back at the right time, and Plus lets you export to Anki or CSV.

Make one set per topic area instead of one giant deck. Ethics standards, quantitative methods formulas, and fixed income concepts are easier to recall when each has its own review schedule. Spaced repetition then pushes weak cards forward until they hold up under timed practice.

Frequently asked questions

How should I divide my CFA study time across the topic areas?

Weight your time toward the areas your practice exam results show as weakest, and keep short reviews of stronger areas so they do not fade. Spaced repetition helps by bringing back older cards on a schedule.

What is a good way to memorize CFA formulas?

Put the formula on the front of the card and a short worked example with the inputs and answer on the back. Practice applying it to new numbers rather than only recognizing the expression.

Is there a free plan?

Yes. The free plan includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser, and no credit card is needed to start. Exports require a paid plan.

Can I export my cards to Anki?

Yes, the Plus plan includes PDF, DOCX, Anki, and CSV export, and students get 40% off with a school email.
