This is for people taking their exams in the April/May 2010 testing window.

Recommended prep time for FAR is 6-8 weeks @ 20 hours a week.

Oh yes! I forget about those ratios until last minute because it's not really covered too much with Becker's questions.

Ancillary? As in revenue? I've never even heard of it. Crap.

Where can I find out how to study for it?

Too bad there is not an additional section to the exam that allows a test candidate to list all the areas they know that they had not been tested on. Good luck to you. I’m just hoping for a 75 so I’ll finally be done with all four parts. Good luck to all!

Just got done,

I know I will be having to do the retake.

[Anonymous]

Ah I hope not 🙁 Any last minute tips to those about to take it?

[LSU_BR]

@onMyWay – I had wished the same thing. If only there was a section you could enter all the things you do know. I felt my test did not represent what I knew at all.

AUD 95 (3/5/10); BEC 83 (5/28/10); FAR 71, 72, 74, 82 (10/16/10); REG 65,80(11/23/10)
ALL DONE 🙂

What I hated about the test is the random questions that they gave out. Obviously cant divulge, but some of their questions come out of left field and i knew how to approach them, but they were definitely weird.

This is so depressing!!!!!!!!! Whoever takes FAR, never feels confident. NOBODY? I guess I am gonna fail too 🙁

Took FAR for second time on April 1st. Felt I almost went overboard with studying and went in the Prometric center feeling so confident. Think I did good on the 3 MC testlets, but ran out of time on the second sim. Need to pass this second time or I lose REG. 🙁

[PursuitCPA]

@rahulcpa after taking it a couple times, I felt confident, look how far that got me. Probably another retake.

CPA EXAM - Passed

I'm taking FAR this Monday and actually feel like I know less now than I did about a week ago… why is so hard to keep all of this stuff straight in your head and to be able to recall it on command?!?!?! The house of cards has tumbled. *sigh*

[rahulcpa]

Waiting in KS,

I agree with you on this. I have the same problem of forgetting material. This is crazy. However, for the last few dayz, I am working on the simulated 100 mcq's exam and it has definitely helped me in retaining material. I have done about 16 test since Monday and planning to do 9 more today and tomorrow for a total of 25oo questions, SUnday, I will spend on the final review. MOnday final exam 1 and tuesday final exam 2, and WEDNESDAY take the test, thursday sleep all day, and Friday “Iron Man”.

Anyone on their last leg of the exam? Anyone a soccer fan? The World Cup starts on June 11th, I don't know about you guys, but the WC ranks up there among the top things I like to watch during the Summer. That being said, I don't want to have to worry about this damn exam ever again after May 5th and I def don't want to have to re-study in June for a re-take in early July. So, if you share the same feeling as me above, this might help you get motivated, I think I've listened to this song about 12 times while reviewing leases and bonds today:

That was a good motivating song! And I really need that today. I want to quit! Or at least move my test to the end of May.
