I am starting my FAR studying on May 3rd.

My exam is June 3rd.

I am using Becker.

Since there is so much material, I think it would be a good idea to do a mini review every third chapter. So after I finish F3, do a review of 1-3. Then after I finish F6, do a review of 1-6. After I finish F9, then do my final review as I normally would. The idea here is so when say, June 15 rolls around, it hasn’t been 6 weeks since I’ve seen F1.

Is this a good idea or is this a waste of time? Is it worth it to lose valuable time I could be spending on the remaining chapters to spend reviewing ones I already did?

I will have about 25 hours a week to study x 8.5 weeks total. So that will give me about 210-215 hours, if necessary.

Other who have conquered FAR, what was your study schedule like? Did you review previous chapters as you went, or did you wait for the final review? I’d especially appreciate if Becker users would chime in. Thanks!

How were you able to schedule your exam for June 3rd? Isn't the window closed?

Wow. I totally screwed that up! It should say July 2nd, not June 3rd.

Sox are in Texas tonight. Watch out for Garko at DH. He always kills Buehrle.

You should be fine. The review after every 3 lectures is definitely something I do. It is a lot of material.

Cub fan here…..anyway, I think it's a good idea to review after every 3 chapters. I'm doing the same thing actually, I've constructed the same type of schedule. I needed a break though from the voluminous info in F1 and F2 so I'm on F4 with F3 to follow afterward. I am taking one chapter per week, though,not the 2 that Becker recommends per week. I work FT and I barely get through one chapter. I'd rather take it slower and get more out of the review course than trying to cram all this material in a short period of time.
