FDP on SAPM @ IIMK

I am attending 5-Day FDP on SAPM at IIMK.

1. First day there are two sessions , one on Probability and other on Portfolio Mgmt.
2. I would think probability is more concentrated on history which I feel unnecessary given the nature and limited time of participants.
3. More focus on quantitative tools which is the title of the session would have been more useful.
4. My favourite book  on Investments by BKMM is recommended by prof . Sony Thomas.
