    Hey everyone,

    So I took FAR for the first time yesterday. Everything was going OK until I got to the SIMs. Then, yeah: OMG, WTF, FML! Pretty sure I guessed 90% of the time. Thankfully, I think I did well enough on the Communication and Research tab… Nonetheless, I still feel like there’s no way I passed…

    This brings me to my next point. I used 2009 Becker to prepare for FAR. I like Becker, but I feel like for whatever reason, with FAR, it just wasn’t clicking like it did for the other sections. Being that I lose credit for BEC on 7/6/10, I really need to pass FAR ASAP. If I failed yesterday, that would give me only one shot in the April/May window and worst case, another shot 7/1/10-7/5/10. As such, I really want to make sure that I keep studying starting Monday (3/8) so that I can build on my knowledge while its fresh, in the event I have to re-take in April/May. That being said, I want to invest in a new prep course, either Becker 2010 – FAR, or something different. Can anyone suggest prep materials they find that are really well done for FAR? I was thinking Yaeger, but I don’t know enough about it. Does Yeager teach Wiley’s book? Is that how it works?! Of course, if I managed to pass yesterday, this would not matter so much, but I am just not so sure I passed based on the above. Did anyone feel like I did, and still passed?

    Any insight, suggestions would help.

    Good luck to everyone taking exams before 3/8, good luck to everyone waiting on scores and good luck to everyone studying in prep for April/May testing.
