    Aaaa! Roger just updated his system for 2014. Which is good, just frustrating. Especially since I just reviewed about 10 hours worth of FAR videos, out of 33.

    It looks like there are now over 40 hours of videos, and the ones I already reviewed seemed to have changed… URGH. I should have just taken the last 2 weeks off.

    B - 33, 71, 79!
    A - 32, 61, 70, 83!
    R - 33, 58, 73, 69, 81!
    F - 47, 78! 🙂
    After 3 long years, I'm finally DONE!
    I could not have done it without NINJA MCQs.

    @nevergiveup – Thanks for writing all that out for me!

    I am confused with rate% to use because I always thought it was the LESSER like Becker teaches (and maybe I'm confusing this with bonds?), but I feel like for some questions they use both of the %'s. Of course I can't find an example at the moment in Gleim or WTB. If I find one during the day, I'll post it.

    I have a similar question to @liss_ will_be_a_CA_CPA about the Roger videos, I watched all 33 hours for FAR pre-update now after the update there are 40 hours of videos. How do I know which ones to rewatch? I can't seem to find a summary of what has changed in the recent update and I certainly don't feel like rewatching a 45 min video section about a topic if nothing much has changed other than a slight format change. What are peoples thoughts that are using Roger?

    Anyone in Big 4 and going through busy season January/February have any study tips for FAR. What is your plan to stay up to date on studying while working?

    andrianashch01,

    I am not big 4, but I am getting ready for tax season. I am hoping to have an outstanding season, since I am by myself, but studying for far has had it's up's and downs already. Lately I have been sleepy every time it's time to study. I don't know what to do about that either but I guess the key is scheduling and keeping the distractions to a minimal. I am taking a chapter at a time. I feel anxious when I don't study or study efficiently. I guess I didn't answer the question.

    Somebody help me too….please?

    It begins with a 75
    Been here too long as a cheerleader....ready to pass

    @andrianashch01 & tncincy. I'm not in a big 4, but my opinion is to develop a study plan (make sure its realistic) and stick to it. Take a nap before you start studying if you need to (one hour works for me) then take a shower and begin the process. WE can do this!

    I'm watching the lectures from Becker, currently on chapter 7. My plan is to have lectures done before Dec 25 and then concentrate on each section following the Ninja study framework. I'm hoping to pass FAR on my first try :0)
