The Q2 test change up is what’s really got me messed up and I feel like I’m having a hard time calming myself down enough to concentrate for my test on Saturday. If I don’t pass this quarter, I’d be up against the new, harder format with my credits for REG and BEC on the line. I’d lose my bonus at my firm, and have to take even more time off to study. Blah blah blah, I’m sorry to complain because I know you’re all feeling similar pressure.

I’ve done this for all of my exams. I freak myself out because there’s no way you can know ALL of the material, but my FAR insecurities feel so much worse. I’ve never really had this much of a problem with test anxiety before, but I’m having panic attacks wrestling with the decision of whether to just cancel my exam on Saturday and take it later in the quarter when I can feel more confident, but HOW CONFIDENT CAN YOU REALLY FEEL? Also canceling would mean trying to find a weekend in the middle of busy season to sit for this thing…which doesn’t sound like a much more appealing option.

Thanks for listening for my neurotic rantings thus far. Love my little ninja community

@Blue nerd ,REG is nothing compared to FAR.You can pass REG in 1 try.Just 4 chapters are there for tax ,focus on Basis.Basis Basis basis.

I'm feeling much better with FAR than REG. FAR is mostly just knowing how the financials work mechanically. It makes much more sense than the REG material. REG material/tax has a lot of arbitrary items that doesn't necessarily make sense, but you just have to know it.

How prepared can you feel? The answer is in data. Learning will have a hockey stick curve. If your use of MCQ shows how you are doing over time – when you see that increase in performance you will know you're starting to get there. It just so happens there's a program that has that feature to show you that. Wild guess what that is?
