This is my last exam and I am trying to figure out if I want to reschedule REG or not on May 30 to early July. If I don’t I have 5 shots left to pass before FAR expires, but I seem to be getting 60% of the answers correct on the testbank and Wiley book questions. So, I don’t feel prepared at all because I wont have time for a final review and can go through the material only once before the test. Because of that it seems logical to reschedule, but I’m feel uneasy just throwing away a testing period. Any sugestions?

FAR - 10/3/12 - 86
BEC - 11/27/12 - 70 1/14/13 - 81
AUD - 4/4/13 - 87
REG - 7/8/13 - 80

If you wouldn't miss the $250 in the event you were to fail the exam and have to retake, then I would go ahead and take it on 5/30 since you'd have to wait another 30+ days to sit for REG if you were to reschedule from 5/30 to July. If you could keep up with the studying for another 30+ days and not start to lose the material, then maybe its worth rescheduling. Knowing how I operate, I'd slack off half the month then need to cram those final two weeks.

F - 85 (11/2012)
R - 87 (1/2013)
A - 92 (2/2013)
B - 90 (4/2013)

DONE!

if you can afford it, just take the test anyways since its your last test. with the luck of the draw you might actually pass and you wont even have to worry about taking it again and if you fail, the test would be experience. good luck!

Just go for it… I wasn't prepared well at all for my first test (BEC), had studied for 40 hours at the most, didn't even complete the last two modules in the Wiley book, and was quite sick the entire week leading up to the exam (including that day). I had seriously considered not even going but decided to go and think of it as a practice exam just to see what to expect for the next time around. I ended up with an 85.

Your scores have been really good thus far so you obviously have the ability to succeed on this one as well. You still have a week to go in terms of preparation. The worst that can happen is that you're out $200 and you have to try again; if you pass, you get to enjoy your entire summer without thinking about having to deal with it in July.
