So thanksgiving morning I find out I failed BEC with 74! That made the holiday interesting so I made my plan to reapply and retake it early Jan and push back AUD. I’m taking REG this next Friday….. So I was all fired up to finish up my plan(was a little behind on schedule) this weekend and kick its butt. Well I had a cold last week and yesterday morning I woke up barely being able to breathe…… To urgent care I went ( took my NINJA flash cards for the two hr wait). Looks like my childhood asthma came back for a special appearance to make my life a living hell. Took two breathing treatments to get my breathing back…. Only two hours later I was still short of breath. But today finally my heart rate is back to normal and breathing has slowed…… Needless to say I have not studied 🙁 I guess now what I am struggling with is should I postpone REG to early December? I can’t push it back father per my NTS. Or just take it? In the past I have always crammed for REG was really trying not to this time. Just kinda feeling all over the place and cannot really decide what to do.

Edit:just checked my pro metric site…. No dates open for REG in December 🙁

Sorry to hear that robot! I am in a similar boat with you about BEC and I am taking REG on friday as well. Last time you crammed for Reg you increased your score by 3 points. You have 5 days left to increase by 5 points. You can do it!

I'd push it back to December if you can get a seat. Whatever you can do to put the odds more in your favor, do it. Sorry you had such a miserable weekend and hope you're feeling better!

By a miracle I checked prometric and found a spot on the 6th… I paid my painful $57.30 and rescheduled!! YAY! Now this week I will focus on getting better and finishing up my material and over the weekend and next week I will just review. I could still be halfway done by Christmas!!

Thank you all for your encouragement. I had a rough weekend, last night was the first night I got some sleep. One thing I must say was nice…. I was so sick I couldn't even think about the exam. Most of the time in consumes my every thought. But now I am feeling better and optimistic that I moved the date back!!

@little

How are the SIMS graded? What if you are 1 digit off from the right answer? BTW, The SIMs nearly made me shed a tear 🙁

Yeah foresee… Reg sims are evil. I actually managed to score stronger in them each time I took it but it wasn't enough. I do believe there is partial credit because I know for certain I didn't get mine completely right in the past. Reg sims are always tough. I hope you passed!!

Thanks for the info.

I felt like I was in college taking an exam just hoping for partial credit. It is definitely weird though because there is no work being shown for the grader to see unlike in college. Im definitely getting demotivated to keep going. After passing FAR, I thought i had it in me to pass the rest.
