Any CFA's Here?

I just finished my undergrad and have been thinking about taking the first part of the CFA in December. Anyone else on here ever taken it? Is it worth the 5g's to see it through?

depends what your career aspirations are. Level 2 is the hardest I am told.

I work as an analyst now, want to get into I Banking. My grades and work experience are both great but I went to a non-target school and can't seem to land anything in any of the boutique banks I want to work in. Figured a CFA would translate into better odds and help with anything I might do after.
