I have 3 weeks until my FAR exam and am struggling through Becker’s FAR, especially F2. I have been doing a masters in taxation so a lot of my financial accounting knowledge is gone. I am still going to spend most of my time with Becker, but want to see if many people have had success using some sort of supplement on top of Becker.

Thanks in advance

I am just curious, how much have you gotten through? If you are only on F2, three weeks seems like not nearly enough time to be properly prepared for the exam. Everyone is different, but if you are struggling and still have the majority of topics still to study, you may want to rethink your exam date. Just sayin…

As for a supplement – NINJA notes/audio. Even Jeff's 10 point combo would be good for you. I found his notes and even unique approach to studying very helpful for me.

Good luck!

BEC: 79 - April 2011
FAR: 78 - May 2011
AUD: 81 - May 2012
REG: 79 - October 2012
Ethics: Passed - March 2013
I am finally DONE!

I agree with @IwannabaCPA

If you're struggling through F2 with only three weeks away, you may want to rethink about the test date.

The problem with FAR isn't how challenging it is, but how much you need to fit into your brain. I don't know if three weeks is enough time to get it all in.

Obviously you know your own mental capacity more than we do so the decision lies with you.

FAR 02/21/13 - 95
REG 07/02/13 - 87
AUD 08/02/13 - 94
BEC 08/30/13 - 85
Ethics Exam - 90

I've gotten through just F1 and F2. I am studying full time from this point on. I am usually pretty decent at cramming, but struggling more with the questions in Becker than I did with REG. I appreciate the advice and will look into Ninja Notes, I am going to keep my schedule.
