    I am not crying wolf here. I just dont see how I can pass this part. I have four shouts but it seems immense. How, how do people pass this. Is the curve that huge, is the study material way harder than the actual exam? I have the basics down no problem, but this seems impossible. Somebody get me off the ledge. I am already thinking about failing 3 times and facing losing parts, is this normal. I would never have undertaking this challenge knowing what FAR is all about. It makes the other three feel like a breeze. Help me

    Be patient with yourself. You've got 5 weeks still don't expect to be ready yet. Besides the last exam is major burnout mode, you're running on fumes and just want this over. It will be.

    Ok, just calm down and back away from the windows. Go into your kitchen and put the toaster in the highest, most inaccessible cabinet. No one wants you taking a bath with that thing. I would have to say, yes, what you are going through right now is perfectly normal. Your other scores are really good and you have put in a bunch of time, obviously, or we wouldn't be trying to talk you off of a ledge right now, so I think you are going to be alright. Remember there are only 90 questions on the exam and Wiley has what feels like millions, although I think it's only thousands. They can't test you on everything. It sounds to me like you really need to walk away from this for an hour or two. This test isn't just a test of accounting knowledge. It is designed to test you in the most brutal ways. It tests your endurance, your strength, and your sanity. So repeat after me “I've got this. I know my stuff and I'm going to pass. I've worked my ass off. They can't throw a bunch of crap at me that I've never seen, because I've seen it all.”

    Good Luck and seriously, get some rest.

    I feel the same way, but i think everyone feels this way. At least in your case you have already passed 3 sections and should be able to see light at the end of the tunnel. Plus after passing 3 sections you should have a fairly good idea of how the exams are and what to expect…..thats my issue right now, i have no idea what to expect and how effective my studying will be. I feel like I am retaining absolutely nothing because of the amount of material

    Good luck
