    How many hours on average did you sleep per night while studying for the exams? I work full time about 55 hours per week and have two children under 6yrs. I normally sleep 8 hours per night because I need to maintain my health but I can’t see any other way to get 20+ hours per week of studying unless I start sacrificing sleep. Any ideas?

    FAR 2/22/14

    I usually get about 5, maybe 6 hours of sleep a night (usually in bed by 11-12 pm, sometimes later and up by around 4:30 am). With my commute, I have to be out the door by 6 am. Having young children, I might get to “sleep in” on the weekends until about 6-7 am. I'll just sleep when I'm dead, I guess!

    FAR - 75
    AUD - 72; 87
    REG - 64; 74; 84
    BEC - 88

    Done!!

    @joyandrea My schedule was much less demanding than yours (your 55 hr work weeks and 2 children under 6yrs). I was working 40 hr weeks, had a 7 minute commute, and no children yet. I was sleeping about 7 hrs a night. I'd study in the evenings until about 10:00, and wake up at 5:00 to study more before work. With this sleep schedule, I passed FAR and AUD in the same window. BEC and REG took me longer to pass, as I was less diligent in studying; didn't have anything to do with my sleep schedule.

    AUD - 77
    BEC - 75
    FAR - 78
    REG - 77
    Finished.  Praise be to the Almighty!
