Thanks tnincy. I am just going to keep pushing through. I really want to take it on the 3rd because I have some personal stuff lined up for the fourth and family events the next weekend.

And of course another factor is that when I first applied for my NTS. I paid for all 4 test thinking I would have plenty of time by Nov 6 to take all 4. (Big mistake). Then to make it more stressful I decided to give FAR retake FAR in between that time.

I just need to focus on the material and not make the test something bigger than it is. Just get through as much as I can and stop making unrealistic daily goals.

Hellloooooooo!

Concentrating on NFP today… doing pretty well. I think I have 25 more questions on Ninja MCQ to get through and I'll be done with them all. I think NFP is pretty easy if you take a couple seconds and just think really logically. Like if $100,000 is contributing and donor-restricted for buying a house, then the NFP buys the house. First you increase Temp restricted, then you must take it out of Temp, and add to Unrestricted. Just think of what you do with a savings account for a trip or something: Add to Savings, take out of Savings to Checking..

Why am I so excited for this chapter?! Ugh.

@samdiego excitement is good when material begin to make sense.

@anjanja thank you for responding to my comment. I now see this problem in a new light. Basic I supposed understand that the $5K and $7K were portions of the overall $51K that needed to backed out to determine what the cash payment disbursed for expense. I need to RTMFQ better next time.

@ tncincy

You can do this! Try eye drops. Sometimes sitting here and reading/studying all the time can make your eyes irritated.

I have the visine a.c. drops. I have doubled up on the vitamin C in case I am fighting a bug. I am doing this…….no turning back. I'll take a mini break and jump in again with the mcq's

Hello! I'm new to this forum and currently working through Liabilities. I plan to take FAR in Aug 4. Studying has been a slow process for me, so I've been wondering how everyone stays motivated (and less scared) in the long run. Also, I'm a slow reader (and the material can be dense sometimes), so is there a more efficient way to read each lesson?

@tncincy I've been using flashcards recently, and I find it to be a helpful memory aid. I used to make them while I read the text, but I've realized it's better to make them AFTER reading and jotting down notes. In a way, I'd be going back to the lesson and reviewing the material a second time.

@takoyu What about watching videos that go with a book? I can barely stay focused reading such drab text, so having video helped me in the beginning.

Fack, I got 5 questions done tonight after work. Loser. Brain is fried from all the NFP I did today, so I guess that is ok. Tomorrow is the USA-GER game at 9am and OMG SOMEONE SCHEDULED A MANDATORY MEETING AT 1030am. I have no words for that person and my fury is indescribable.

@samdiegoCPA I think I'll try again and see if rewatching the videos would help. I think my trouble's with pacing, since I'm falling behind schedule.
