    I have completed all 9 chapters in Becker of FAR and have worked all MCQ’s 2 or 3 times. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to spend my next 2 weeks reviewing all this crazy material? I do have Becker Final Review, but I don’t think that will take me 2 weeks – on the other exams I have used it to help me get through the topics I felt I was struggling in!

    Looking for some input! Also, Congrats to everyone – stick with it, we can do this! Waiting patiently on my AUD score and hopefully when I take FAR on Nov 30th it will be my last exam!

    Hey Raychie21, seems you're in good shape working your MCQs 2 or 3 times.

    I too worked on my MCQs 2 or 3 times. FAR is the section that I studied the hardest and longest! I was very confident with all the material I learned in preparation for th exam.

    I took the exam this pass Friday, November 13th, and encountered a totally different exam than what I had studied for. 50% of the MCQ I had in my exam was not covered or covered lightly in my review course. I believe I failed with probably NO higher than a 60. Of the 4 exams that I have sat for, FAR is the only that I felt hopeless from the beginning.

    Unlike my previous 3 sections (REG, AUD, BEC). the first testlet was very difficult and tricky and the 2nd and 3rd testlets were just as difficult. The SIMS weren't bad at all, but I had burned too much time in the MCQs and didn't have enough time with the 2nd SIM and didn't complete 2 TABS. Govt and NFP was suppose to be 20% of the exam, I think I had no more than 7 MCQ in the fist 3 testlets…

    With 2 weeks left to study, I think you should study material that was NOT covered by your Becker course…..

    BEC=77, REG=74, AUD=70, FAR-Not Good?

    yes go random and cover all areas at random do not harp on one section…….do a shot gun pool of questions and just do your best it is better then getting prostyle on some but then never even seeing the ones you wasted 20hrs on come test day
