In my previous post, I wrote of how I passed FAR in Feb 2012.

I used Roger and I think there is no way I could have gone through the whole FAR nightmare without Roger.

I don’t know how that worked but I felt I needed Roger to walk me through the topics before I delve into the subject matter myself.

And so, as I said in that post, I dumped Roger for BEC ( even though I had paid for it) and stuck with Wiley.

I also bought the Wiley book for AUD.

So, I went through the material module by module in the order they are in the Wiley books. After every chapter, I would do the MCQs at the end of the chapter. I’d take 3 Qs at a time and then review their answers.

Do not waste a minute on the simulations, you only need to know the structures of the AUD simulations.

I call the above, round 1.

In round two, I do only the mcqs from the book, five at a time and review the answers immediately. It is tedious but hey!

Round two took me a month ( with a fulltime job putting in 2 hours before and after work and 6 hours per day on weekends).

On round three, I take up the software and do MCQs (a dose of 30 unseen at a time). Module by module on study mode. This is the state where the material sinks into your head! During this round, I mark those questions I think I didn’t have an idea.

On round four, I redid all questions missed more than 0 times…..then redid all flagged questions…..then redid all questions missed more than once and then twice! This was already sickening! I took my flight from Tokyo to LA for my exam.

Arriving on Friday, jet lag and girlfriend and sick of MCQs, I took time to enjoy some good food and fight jet lag for the weekend! Then sat for AUD on Monday and BEC on Tuesday. I didn’t open any book to study after leaving home in Tokyo!

The AUD exam was boring! I felt like I was doing the same MCQs I was already puking of! I almost fell asleep. Time was never a problem….I could do 1 question per minute and had more than 2 hours for the sims….I looked up every single sim ( where possible) from the Auth Lit! There was ample time.

BEC was a beast! I don’t think they got those questions from the material I studied! Nevertheless, pushed me through each one….there was only two calculations….one I did and the other was straight from wiley and so I just picked my answer!

I left BEC ready to schedule again!

I got my result today!

I got 83 in BEC and 83 in AUD!!

REG I am ready for you!!!!

Good luck every one!! And thanks Jeff, this is a great forum!!
