Can you suggest the best CFA institutes in Mumbai?

EDUPRISTINE: Like you, even I had an impression that this is the only legit training center. But alas, they work like a Spoken English class Managing’ part time faculties on weekends and expanding their Business'. They use cheap marketing gimmicks as well, such as, the impressive professor Amit Jain, VP Kotak, and probably IIM and IIT pass out, who took the demo sessions doesn’t take many of the actual lectures. Their infrastructure is good, their flexibility is very good and they've got a presence online. However, hardly anyone at Edupristine is into full-time teaching. Good professors get promoted at finance companies, where they are working. So, on weekends, they prefer leisure over work and rightly so. High turnover could be the reason for drastic teaching quality deterioration. Results: Percentage of students passing from Edupristine were as good as 60% and also below 40%. It varies batch wise. Their reply on why one should join Edupristine: a) IIT IIM founders (They don't take the actual CFA lectures. Their office argues that how can we students expect IITian founders to go to Mumbai suburbs, and that too for just teaching' Its this attitude of considering teaching as inferior that results in the problem of Hyped Brand' but Poor Teaching Quality). b) Another pitching point is that Edupristine is a big USA company basically, all Indian founders actually went to the USA to register their Company' (company as it is called & meant to be). There are still many Indians who feel all that is foreign is superior to the Indian born and bred! 2. V D SHAH: Lacks experience and Knowledge that one would expect from a professor. Makes mistakes in formulas and keeps his book open during formulas which are petty issues but overall sends a signal of low confidence. I must also admit that he, after that, logically derives every formula & also gives some practical valuation stories regarding it. LIFE-SCHOOL: Might not come under the coaching class category, as they position themselves beyond a prep institute; an undergraduate students B-school as they describe. They shall push you the hardest to get all the three CFA levels done in eighteen months and will top it up with internships and WorkEx, but sadly a sophomore at Life-School has no life beyond its school. As any and every business school would, Life-School does not even offer a certificate for the long hours you devote. They say it is to attract the crowd with a class, not the mass. The certificate shouldn't
