I was surprised that my score was available on NASBA as a I had to submit a certificate of enrollment to take the exam which stated that my scores would not be released until they received a final transcript from my school. Maybe it’s because i’ve got nearly 150 hours now and will have 150 when I graduate at the end of this month rather than the 120 required to sit? Anyways, I managed to pull a 93 on FAR and this is the first time i’ve ever taken a CPA test so I just wanted to thank everyone here for helping me study and providing an invaluable resource for new candidates. I look forward to any future advice you all can give me on AUD, REG, and BEC.

Thanks guys!

How did you prepare for FAR? That exam is giving me trouble.

DONE!

I used Becker and just for the most part followed their program the way they describe it, watching the lectures while highlighting first, rereading the chapter after, then doing all MCQ (including the optional ones) and TBS questions. Then I review the notecards and do the progress tests after each chapter. At the end I left three weeks to reread each chapter (this time taking notes of the mnemonics and such to help me memorize them) and redid all non-optional MCQs and TBS's. Finally I did both practice final exams and restudied my weak areas. Then I did a quick re-review the night before the exam.
