For me, the conceptual stuff is hard. Anything that was all memorization and no computation sucked. Therefore, the stuff in Chap 1 that tested the “IS EAR AIM” crap and knowing which concept goes where + the chapter 4 IT stuff was the hardest. I'm generally a numbers guy, so for me 2,3,5 were a breeze. I also had a finance background, so I didn't even bother studying 3/5

FAR - 84
AUD - 76 (phew)
BEC - 88
REG - 77

DONE!

I'm still studying.

Yes, Ch. 2 variances has gotten me the most confused, but overall, I think it's all hard.

For some reason, I believe I'm doing the best with Ch 5 – economics, so far.

But, I'm stressed about all of it.

Just a few days left to cram it all in the brain…..

FAR - 86 - 2/27/14
AUD - 75 - 5/29/14
BEC - 80 - 8/31/14
REG - 89 - 2/27/15
Praise Jesus! I'm done!!

Study resources:
Becker
Wiley test bank

I'm guessing all of you guy's are studying with Becker due to all of the 1, 3, etc. references…

Most difficult for me was the COSO stuff. It wasn't really intuitive.

B-6 hedging and foreign currency risks keep giving me trouble and OH Variance from B-2.

Also the questions where you are given characteristics of information and you have to pick Efficiency, integrity, blahh blaah I feel like you could make a case for three of the answer choices.

A - 89 10/23/2014

@Charlie, thank god someone else agreed with me. For a second, I thought I was taking crazy pills lol. I dunno why, but any chapter from any section that is just words makes me so mad. I can usually figure out the numbers stuff because it's really just about anticipating what types of questions they'll ask and building frameworks for each type of question. With the concepts, there's so much of it and no real way to know it besides brute force memorization that I become a sad panda.

FAR - 84
AUD - 76 (phew)
BEC - 88
REG - 77

DONE!
