Why you'll succeed with us
Adaptilyst gives you the edge
Unlimited multiple-choice drills that help you build the foundational knowledge set by the CFA® Institute
Skip the boring parts and jump straight to using engaging multiple-choice questions to learn the foundational knowledge.
Actively build mastery of each topic through intelligently designed questions based on the highly regarded Bloom's taxonomy of learning.
Note: unlike other question banks, we do not intend to mimic the real exam (there are many good options out there already for this). We are a new learning tool that uses AI and adaptive learning to help you master the content required for the CFA.
We've modeled our questions directly against the latest syllabus and guidelines released by the CFA® Institute
Brilliant explanations that go as deep as you need
Don't settle for short, 1-2 sentence explanations
Enter into the world of rich, conversation-based explanations with a wicked-smart AI coach
We'll also run through calculations step-by-step with you 🥳
Understand your performance in detail to focus on your gaps
Understand your performance and how ready you are at a granular level.
We'll assess your readiness against the official exam syllabus in a level of detail that is unprecedented
And then you can save time, and target those gaps with razor-sharp focus
Mobile friendly so you can study on the go
We know you're not always in front of a computer, so we've designed with mobile at the forefront.
Now you can do drills on the go. Get a few in at the bus-stop, on the train, or on the couch.
note: you'll still need an internet connection (for now...)
Candidate success story
Adaptilyst was one of the biggest contributors to my success on the CFA Level I exam. The endless questions and continuously increasing difficulty kept me from ever growing complacent. I really liked that I never knew what was coming next. The AI responses are instant and curated perfectly for Level I. There are no waiting periods for solutions, and the AI isn't a yes-man providing bibliographies of useless fluff. It clearly explains any concept I could think of, whether it related to the immediate question or not. The website exposed me to questions I never encountered while working through all the CFA Institute LES exercises and examples. On top of that, An actively reads feedback and improves the site.
Comfortably passed CFA Level I on his first attempt, with every topic above 70%.
Only 45% of first-time candidates passed the May 2026 sitting.
