I just need to rant. Like I am so tired. Studying while working full-time is NOT the business (yes, I know many people do it). I’m very grateful to my work that my manager is SO nice that she allows me to study during work.

But I am so tired. My test is in 2 days. I’ve done probably a combined total 1400 from Rogers, 700 from NINJA, and 800 from WTB MCQs. I think I’m averaging around 70-75. I am so MCQ’d out…. I’ve done about 60+ sims too. I just want a 75. But I hate stockholder’s equity so much. Like I am so sure that I will be screwed if they gave me a sim on this because it is NOT absorbing. APIC-R/E/-T/S-C/S, Why can’t it just be one?!

This nuisance of BEAST for FAR has only left me 26 days to study for REG (with full-time work). I’m kind of not too worried because it’s just REG and it’s tax and I’ve done taxes before. Studying for REG will totally be more bearable than studying for FAR. But heavens, I do not want to study for FAR again…… I just want a 75.

@the last coffee Yesss. I’ve been in this dead beat relationship too longgggg! Hahaha That made me laugh. Thanks!

@hasy I agree with moniker. Get rest before the exam. I failed 3 exams, and I truly believe if I had rested more before, I possibly could have done better. Love your quote- I use it often. 😉

Good luck!!!!

@hasy

I was so tired of FAR like you are.
I did the same amount of MCQs like you did
I did the same amount of SIMs like you did
I did get an average 70-75% like you did
I did get a 95 on FAR and I hope you will too 🙂

@mtaylo24, It isn't. No test should be done in 26 days while working full-time. But my NTS expires on 4/28. And I was not really good with studying for FAR when I had the chance. (Got laid off end of last year and was job-searching). So I just have to give it my all for 26 days. By some miracle that I pass it, I will (pray to buddha) hopefully have ONE exam left, which is audit. As I've worked in audit before, I'm hoping it will help me. By then I have everything since I have already completed the experience requirement.

Also, if everyone wants to know. I had a great night's sleep last night. Hopefully today is the same.

That's the thing about FAR. The sheer amount of material is the real problem with it. It was mentally and physically draining studying for it. But based on the number of questions you're doing and how you're trending, I'm sure you'll pass it. Good luck!

[hasy]

SOOOOO…. I feel like I got hit by a bus. A somewhat small bus but still. I somewhat breeze through the first testlet. Then the second testlet came like a skycraper coming down on me. I KNOW I did bad bc the third testlet was bearable. What really scares me are the sims….. bc I thought they were okay….. almost somewhat simple? I hope I pass. Gosh… It would suck so much to restudy for this stupid part. I hate the thing about feeling like you fail, then you failed. But the test wasn't too bad, though I KNOW I tanked the second testlet, I just don't know how bad…. 🙁 I don't even know until I finished taking REG.
