CFA® Level 1 - Weekly Live Classes Experiences

I am looking to get opinions on signing up for the weekly live classes in order to prep for CFA® Level 1. Anybody do the weekly live classes?

I am not the best self studier so I believe the live classes are the best way to prep (and pass!) the exam. I understand there still will be A LOT of self study involved, but my thinking is that the live class will provide much needed structure to my prep, as well as fill-in any gaps I cannot fill via self study.

Money, thankfully, is not an issue.

Any opinions on Stalla vs Kaplan (Schweser) are appreciated as well.

Thanks

 

Pretty sure Schweser is considered to the gold standard by most, if not everyone.
