    Hi all, I’m now just over 1 week away from the REG exam…

    I rewrote my notes, then today I spent all day going through MCQs. Right now my average is a 55%. 🙁 There are 3 sections that I have consistently performed with 100%…. however the rest range from 20-70%… leaving me with an average of 55.

    From those who are experienced, any advice on what to do??? Just keep doing MCQ until I get it?

    Do nothing else but mcq's. If you can take a vacation day or two to study do it. I don't think you're in a dire situation, and I don't think you are more at risk than any other candidate. But do whatever it takes to give yourself some extra knowledge going in. This isn't about long term memory retention whatever you can cram in your skull in the short term will give you a 75.

    FAR- 77
    AUD -49, 71, 84
    REG -56,75!
    BEC -75

    I would go back to the book/lectures for the 3 or 4 sections you are struggling with. I really wouldnt keep doing multiple choice questions on the sections you are currently scoring 100% on. Spend the next 4-5 days restudying your weaker topics (ie. watch the lecture again, read the book for that topic, and do multiple choice on that topic only). Once you've done that for your three or four weak sections, then spend your last 3 or 4 days doing a comprehensive review of all the sections.

    Thanks guys, good suggestions. I'm going to go through all the ninja notes and then reread the Wiley sections that I'm doing bad on. I really hope this helps improve my scores!

    Mla- you're right… sadly its not about long term memory so I am going to do as much as I can to cram cram cram!
