awesome. I should have done that today too. I am on the couch just vegging out. I am not looking forward to seeing my REG score, and I am finding myself already acting like I failed. I hate this process.

Best of luck with BEC. For me, that was my favorite to study for. I know that sounds nutty, but I like the content of that exam.

Have a great week!

I am about to start my 10 hour plus day, late start, but no complains i need my rest especially that i am also fighting horrible cold.

FAR on wednesday and I am starting to feel a little panic, don't know if I should keep on drilling MCH's, review all my notes and do more SIMS. It's feels like I want to go back and start reviewing all info all over again, like re-read chapters..

I guess info overload is starting to get to me..anyone feeling little panic like me? if you do, how do you stop it?

Ok deep breath and start to study and stop panic..

Wishing every a very productive study session today!

I think you are doing great. I would keep focusing on the mcq's and review the notes. I wouldn't spend the last couple of days on sims though–that is my opinion. Last exam–yahooo!! You are at the finish line. Go get 'em. Don't panic–you can do this 🙂

@yankee. Thank you! I think you are right! I will drill more MCH's and read my notes. I hope it is my last one, FAR is really monster, however, I found REG worse. Yankee where are you with your CPA journey? Are you done?

Okay, so my estimate of 10-12 hours for today is so totally not going to happen…I am getting really burned out! I want to be decorating like jomarie or vegging on the couch like yankee…so envious. 🙂

@Pacific, take a little break to take your mind off FAR and come back to it. Our brain can take only so much. Few more days and we can take loooonnnggg break!

@yankeeaccountant I haven't minded studying for BEC either but I still have a few areas that I need to nail down before Wednesday. Any study suggestions?

@agniechaCPA201 one thing I do as I get to the end is make a chart that shows each chapeter (module or section) of the book and the % of the exam. Then I focus on mcqs for one chapter at a time starting with the heaviest weight. Then, I mark down the scores of that section. That way I can see exactly where I should spend my time. I also feel like I need to change up what I'm doing now and then so I will move from book mcqs to comptuer mcqs to notes… etc.

Good luck this week!

FAR- 63, 75
AUD- 61, 78
REG- 63, 74, 80
BEC - 63, 61, 75!!!!! I'm done!!!!
