    Just curious if anyone has gone into FAR with less than a trending score of 85% or whatever your review course says to achieve and you still passed? I still have two more days of studying but I am not sure I will make it to that 85%.

    Thanks!

    My average was 73, trending 78, got an 84.

    Over ~1500 questions.

    I did also hammer J/Es, so I felt pretty solid in the SIMs.

    FAR-84
    AUD-90
    REG-86
    BEC-Please let it be over on 8/21.

    Yes in Ninja. You go to Reports, Progress Report and average trending score is the third from the right. Total is at the bottom.

    I think nearly everybody takes FAR with less than 85% trending.

    Yes. I sort of figured that billbrasskey. I also wanted to see how low people got compared to scores.

    I hope so. I'm trending at 75% total of 2288 questions. Test is in 12 days.

    I feel like I'm totally screwed for FAR tomorrow.. I don't like Wiley's system for progress reports so I made a spreadsheet when I started… someone tell me it'll all be ok >_>; lol

    Iggy-

    I've done the same thing using the Wiley books. I haven't failed a test yet when I've done that well. If I were you, I'd go over the stuff you only took once, then charge the test center.

    You'll do fine. I'd be shocked if you scored under an 85.

    No problem.

    You should look over NFP, Governmantal, then cash flows and call it a day.

    I get my FAR score Thursday. I wish I was trending those going into it. I didn't have enough time to get there (3 weeks of studying) and just charged it. I am totally over these tests at this point.

    ok lol i dont get this. ive done 127 questions (just got it this week, been using becker too) and my average trending score is 55.6% while my average score itself is 85%…and on the home page it says ive missed 18 questions. someone help? im kinda freaking out seeing everyone is in the 70s and what not.

    is it because ive only done so few amount of questions?

    Good luck Bill, crossing my fingers for you 😀

    I technically started studying in June but I was just watching the super boring Gleim videos, taking notes and doing the mcq tests and sims after.. I rescheduled from July to August because I was studying very inconsistently, was going out with friends, to the beach, weddings, etc. and hadn't even touched Wiley MCQs..

    around July 30 I decided to blow through the last 10 sections of Gleim, not do the sims or mcqs, and just started hitting the Wiley TB on August 6, so it feels like I've only REALLY been studying for 2 weeks lol, I wish I had banged out all the videos way earlier and just studied like I have been. I've been on it 10-14 hours a day, 7 days a week, for these two weeks, except the 4 hours that I work haha

    @Iggy:

    Overall, do you feel prepared for your FAR test tomorrow using Gleim? I made it all the way through CPAexcel, decided I just didn't feel ready, switched my test date until 10/18, and am plowing through Gleim this go round.

    BEC (2/28/16) ----- 78
