    Evening freaks!

    I just finished F8 and still have to go through F9.

    I honestly don't know if my brain can take anymore. After F9 I will have been through 8 chapters in 8 days. Doesn't Becker recommend 1 chapter a week? Sheesh!

    Go! Go! Go! Go!!!!!!

    BEC: 7/22 - 72hrs (Pass) FAR: 8/31 - 56hrs (Wait)

    Just took a 30 question study section from the Wiley Software… Just about 65% (19/30) some of them were just dumb mistakes… Based on those questions I feel ok, definitely need to cover governmental and NFP again. About to start another one now!

    Idrathergolf – yes! I know bond issue costs get subtracted from the gross bond proceeds and they get amortized on the B/S! 🙂

    22/30 on the last 30 MCQ's.. 73.33%, feeling ok at this point. Definitely is adding confidence. I have been making some good educated guesses, which I would imagine would prove valuable on this test..

    Thank you whitesoxfan! 🙂

    Trevor – I actually just do the MCQs in the Wiley book because Cindy said that you should do the questions on the Wiley CD after you have exhausted every other possible method of studying lol. It is probably easier though doing them on the computer because I get annoyed doing them in a notebook! Oh well..just gotta get through the minimum required!

    Yea I know… it is so much easier doing them on the computer, plus I can mix in all the modules that way… I have never done all of the minimum questions… I am going to go through some of them still in the modules where I am concerned..
