I studied for six weeks for the first try, and four weeks of review for the second try and I still failed. I’m starting to feel so demotivated because I’ve given up spending time with friends and family to study for these exams, to only see failing scores. I’m starting to lose confidence and am starting to feel depressed 🙁

BEC 8/31/11 80
AUD 10/14/11 89
REG 11/30/11 63, 1/14/12 72
FAR 2/29/12

I just scored a 70 on REG

i can't believe I scored all comparable and stronger in taxation but weaker in business law cost me completely

now I m panic because my first one will expire 1/2013

I only have 3 shots left for REG

I feel lost at this moment 🙁

Don't get discouraged! REG is the only test I had to retake – twice! Got 63 on my first try, 74 (ugh!) on my second, and finally passed with 77 when I took it on January 19th. If I can pass it (I'm seriously not good at Tax), then you certainly can too.

AUD: Pass
BEC: Pass
FAR: Pass
REG: Pass - I'm DONE!

@kobebryant168, I'm so sorry =/ REG really is the beast, of all beasts. Can I ask what your study methods were?

FAR 75 (X2) Previous score 67
BEC 79 (X2) Previous score 58

Hey Peanut

I used Becker and the wiley book supplement

I have to admitted I skipped quite a bit of Business Law section starting from Commercial paper…but the thing is I heard a lot of ppl here said Business law is only a small portion on the exam…I really had bad time applying it on the questions…that was the struggle

you left with AUD? you are SOOOO almost there…

I m just afraid I will fail REG 3 more times then I'll be dead…

SFMLE, if it is of any consolation I failed REG 4 times 74, 71, 67, 74. The last grade is from 3 weeks ago. I have only been using Becker but I'm definitely going to consider other review courses the next time i take it. Both times I got a 74 I scored on the “weaker” percentile..

kandisjoy, the final review course is not worth the money. I have them all and they barely help… the extra questions they have are the questions on the FINAL exams on the regular course..

I think you need to put more time into it.

B 2/12 87
A 11/11 90
R 8/11 86
F 5/12 88

@kobebryant168, I've only used the Wiley online test bank. Does the Wiley book come with the test bank? I think you need to study like you've never studied before. Treat all the sections equally, despite what people say are heavily tested or not. Every exam is different. I used Becker + Wiley online test bank and thought it was the perfect mix. Please don't die over REG =P Although at one point I thought I was going to lol! Go back after REG like you mean it!!

Well I cried my eyes out all night yesterday, and I'm over letting this stupid exam get to me… I'm going to defeat it next time!!!
