    Hello I recently failed FAR exam but i want to retake it. Can anyone suggest how much time i should allocate for re-study of FAR exam? I am pretty much fresh with the materials; i just need to focus on TBS more than other things.
    Thank You.

    I am starting to restudy for my FAR retake as well, I got a 74. I can let you know what my plan is though, study like this is my first time seeing it. I am as close as you can get without passing, but that doesn't mean if I took it again after hitting my weak areas I'll pass. I am not going for 1 point, I am going for 75.

    AUD: 83 (04/11/16)
    BEC: 78 (05/28/16)
    FAR: ?

    There is no magic number of study time. Really. I never kept track of the time I spent studying and restudying for FAR. You need to LEARN it as if you're making sure that you UNDERSTAND everything.

    For every topic, you're a bit unsure on. Keep studying that part to make you understand more. If you're worried about TBS, start practicing SIMS more. For every section you review, make sure you do a TBS for that area.

    I don't really use the score report that much, if you like to, see which areas you may need to work on. When I restudied, I pretty much learned everything again and rewrote my notes twice. I made sure to do every SIM that my review had and made it a point to do SIMs everyday. I didn't do all of ninja sims but there was way to much.

    But good luck!
