I took both the 7 and 66 beginning of last year. 2 months study time for both. Studied the 7 for a month and half then took the test, then right after i took the 7, i studied for the 66 for about 2 weeks then took the test. It all depends on the material you get and how focused you can be. But for me, the 7 was a no brainer....kind of a steep learning curve, but once you're use to it, bet the basics and foundations down, pretty straight forward. Concentrate on the debt section...that's about 60%-70% of the 7 test.

CFA though, as Jarlaxle said, is an entirely different story. That's what I'm studying for next, and that's going to be a raping in the ass.

and btw...i passed both on the first try, so it's not impossible.
