I made the mistake of thinking simply graduating with a finance degree would gift me a pass on the level 1 exam (I can assure you this was not the case). Not only is the material very challenging, the pass rates are extremely low on the first two levels. You need to know your stuff inside and out, as the time constraints of the exam doesn't allow much leeway.

Based on a lot of feedback, and info from friends in finance, I have basically heard that the Level 1 gives you the same skill set as a B'Comm in Finance. Whether untrue or partially true, it can't hurt to have a similar set of skills.
