    Hey guys,

    I have FAR on Saturday morning. Is it normal (for those who have taken and passed) to feel compeltely lost and feel like I am just going to do horrible? My nerves are at a high right now.

    Thanks in advance

    AUD - July 2014 - 76
    REG - August 2014 - 82
    FAR - November 2014 - 78
    BEC - January 2015 - 81

    DONE!!!!

It is a very mean and nasty place and it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't how hard you're hit; it's about how hard you can get hit, and keep moving forward. How much you can take, and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done!"

    high 70s is amazing!! im still in the mid 60's. I did a 100 question progress test yesterday and I got a 66. I need to get that up. And my trending ninja is 64%, which doesn't worry me as much bc those questions are so hard and I had roughly the same score prior to taking BEC.

    mb0363 – you're doing great! you will definitely pass! just keep at the questions and don't avoid anything bc it scares you! Better to be scared before the test than during!

    To top it off, I'm now dealing with a large personal problem. I'm trying really hard to just block it out and focus for one more week on this exam. Just one more week…

    Anyone have any tips for blocking out big personal issues? One more week and I (crossing my fingers) will be done forever with studying. Last section. One more week… Ugh…

    When I was lost I used my weak areas as my compass.

    That's a rough one – personal problems make it hard to focus.

    You need to play mind games with yourself.

    tell yourself you will pass over and over.

    know that you will deal with the problems next week after your test.

    you need to completely take control over your mind and focus

    its hard but you can do it

    you do NOT want to have to take this test again!

    Thank you. My problems will still be there next week. Nothing I can do about it at this point but block it out and focus on FAR. My problems are out of my hands right now.

    But I can control my studying with FAR.

    In a weird way it's comforting to know so many people feel the same way. I am going through a lot today of what I believe I don't have down, then just practice tests and final tests on Becker the rest of the week non stop. This is one that you just don't want to have to deal with a second time.

    Thanks for the support. Exam is on Sunday, 23rd. Desperately trying to block out all distractions until then. I can't do anything at this point anyway.

    Unfair? I think when you start to think like that, you have already lost. Unfair implies that somehow the test is skewed against you. Attacking any endeavor will always lead to better results than simply rolling over and calling it unfair.
