@tootsie i will agree with you. videos do help retain more info esp if your notes are detailed but everyone works differently so let's see how no video goes for @mommy

Thanks for the feedback everyone! I'm going to skip the videos for now and focus on the book and taking notes. Then once I start on the MCQs in a week or two I may reconsider watching a video or two if needed. I really do think I only watched them before because I thought that was what I was supposed to do since it was my first set of exams. I've taken three now and I just don't think the videos did much for my retention before. I appreciate all of the comments.

Hello! I'm studying for FAR as well and currently having a really hard time! I'm 0-5 on the CPA exams and this will be my first go at FAR. This is tough stuff, especially since I work mostly in tax. It's a stressful time at work and I just can't seem to keep up with FAR. I'm studying with Becker and currently on a tight schedule for online classes (which is pretty much BS) so these feelings are overwhelming. Between my failures and all the other day to day stresses I'm having a hard time staying motivated. Has anyone else experienced this? How can I overcome?

Officially scheduled for Feb 27. Five weeks from today. Not feeling good about it! The only thing is that if I don't pass, I can take it again mid April (I will never take an exam on the first week of the new quarter again, the 5 week wait for your score is DREADFUL) so I'll either be done by early March or early May.

AUD: 84
REG: 84
BEC: 79
FAR: 83

Wiley questions are much trickier then becker. Anyone have any suggestions on how to tackle them other than just read them over a ton of times? I do have to say that I them better than Becker eventhough they're harder.

BEC: 73, 77! Thank you Lord! and WTB
REG: 71, 82! Thank you Lord! and A71
FAR: 72, 78! Thank you God and my Mommy in Heaven!
