Why make your own Kaplan CFA flashcards

Many CFA candidates want Kaplan CFA flashcards to drill Ethics, Quantitative Methods, Economics, Fixed Income and the other Level I topics. DeckOwl does not provide Kaplan decks, but it can turn the Kaplan CFA notes, PDFs or slide handouts you already own into a deck that matches your own study plan.

  • Upload Kaplan CFA PDFs, slides or notes and generate cards from the sections you are studying.
  • Use spaced repetition so missed Standards and formulas return more often.
  • Start on the free plan with 3 generations per month, studied in the browser.
  • Export to Anki or CSV on the Plus plan when you want to study outside DeckOwl.
Example CFA Level I flashcards (Ethics, Quant, Fixed Income)
Which CFA Standard prohibits knowingly making misrepresentations about investment products or analyses?Standard I(C) Misrepresentation. Members must not knowingly misstate facts about their own work or the products they discuss.
What is the formula for the Sharpe ratio?(Portfolio return minus risk-free rate) divided by the standard deviation of portfolio returns. It measures excess return per unit of total risk.
What does modified duration tell you about a bond?The approximate percentage change in the bond's price for a one percentage point change in yield. Higher duration means greater sensitivity to rate changes.
What is the difference between a Type I and a Type II error?A Type I error rejects a true null hypothesis (a false positive). A Type II error fails to reject a false null hypothesis (a false negative).
Which CFA Standard requires a reasonable and adequate basis for investment recommendations?Standard V(A) Diligence and Reasonable Basis. Members must have a reasonable basis, supported by research and investigation, for every recommendation.

Works from your files

Upload PDFs, PowerPoint slides, DOCX files, plain text notes or photos of pages. Photos are read with text recognition.

Spaced repetition built in

Cards resurface at growing intervals, so you spend more time on the Standards and formulas you keep missing.

Browser study on the free plan

Start with 3 generations per month and study in the browser at no cost. No credit card is needed to begin.

How it works

Upload your CFA material

Add the Kaplan CFA PDFs, slide decks or notes you already have, or photograph pages from a printed book.

Review the generated cards

Check the flashcards for the topics you are studying, such as Ethics, Quantitative Methods or Fixed Income, and edit anything that looks off.

Study on a schedule

Work through the daily review queue so weak cards come back more often until you can recall them quickly.

Cards built from your own material tend to follow the wording and order of your course, which makes them easier to check against what you read. You can focus on the formulas, Standards and definitions you get wrong instead of reviewing a fixed list.

Spaced repetition then handles the scheduling. Cards you know drop back in the queue, and cards you miss come up again, so your review time goes to the material that needs it most.

Frequently asked questions

How many flashcards should I make for CFA Level I?

Make cards for the concepts you cannot yet recall without looking, not for every line of the curriculum. Many candidates start with one card per Standard, formula or definition in each topic and add more as they find gaps.

What is the best way to study CFA Ethics with flashcards?

Write the Standard number and name on the front, and put the rule plus a short example of a violation on the back. Review the Standards daily in short sessions, since they are tested on application rather than memorization alone.

Does DeckOwl include Kaplan's own flashcards?

No. DeckOwl generates flashcards from the files you upload, so you need your own Kaplan CFA material to start. The free plan gives you 3 generations per month.

Can I export my CFA flashcards?

Yes, but exports are a paid feature. The Plus plan at $39 per year or $7.99 per month includes PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export along with unlimited generations.
