Anyone willing to share how they restudied for FAR and/or their study plan, I would greatly appreciate it. I am currently using Becker and Ninja. I plan to sit September 10th. I just finished going through all the NINJA blitz videos to get a refresher as I have taken the other three exams since I first sat for FAR.

What was your original score? How many hours for the first try? How long ago was your first try? Did you pass the other 3?
September 10th seems very close, depending on how long ago your first try was, and how close you were.

@recked I got a 63 and the first time I studied from January 15 to April 5th (exam day). I actually believe that I studied too long as there were some topics that I started to forget about. I am studying full time as I start work at the big 4 September 13th. I plan to put in around 40-50 hours a week.

I used just Becker for my first attempt and went through the usual cycle – watch videos, read textbook, make notes, and solve MCQ's. Failed miserably. For my retake, I supplemented Becker with Ninja Audio and MCQ's. This time though, I ditched theBecker textbook and lecture videos. I'd listen to Ninja audio on my commute to work, review my notes and flashcards whenever I found time and spent a few hours each day after work and on weekends to solve the Ninja MCQ's. Few days before the test, I focused on my weak areas, solved a few SIM's, and went through my notes/flashcards again. That did the trick for me.

Study plan: Everyday
1) Ninja MCQs
2) Type Word Notes on the side
3) Google + Another71 (PLENTY of question explanations from past on here) + Youtube
I have used Becker in the past, but I have not used it for FAR this time. I just have a lot of faith in Ninja;)

TIP: If you plan to take more than 2 months to study, be sure to keep refreshing the older material along the way.
