so I’ll try it here:

it’s funny how different exams are much more difficult to some than others, isn’t it? Like, I am waiting on FAR for the 5th time because twice I came within a couple points and 2 other times I choked completely. The first time I took it I blew it and then almost passed the second time. I made the mistake of trying to cram it in before the Q3 window closed with only 3 weeks of study after taking REG and got the same score as when I choked the first time. Almost passed again in Q4. Then I see people on here that have passed it on the first try or maybe second, but are having trouble passing AUD, REG, or BEC, which for me weren’t bad. It really goes to show that the versions of the exam are HUGELY different! The first exam I ever took was REG and it was hard – I ran out of time and it was just a crazy exam (scored 62), but when I took it the second time I finished with 30 minutes to spare and walked out of there not knowing what to think, then scored 86. The only one I passed on the first try was BEC, with an 80, and I had thought I would probably fail that one and pass AUD, but it was the exact opposite. Failed AUD with 73…second try passed with 79 but felt it should have been a much higher score. It’s anybody’s guess how this thing is scored.

I really need a pass or I will be taking BEC again 🙁 A pass means I’m done. It’s madness.
