I just found out I passed audit yesterday which makes it 2 down and 2 to go. I have already failed FAR twice, once in the summer and once around this passed thanksgiving. When I was studying the second time I was able to raise my score from a 66 to a 71 and now I need to make that final leap to a 75. Does anyone have any advice on how I should go about restudying for FAR this third time around? Time wise, strategies, anything that may be useful.

@DeadBenjamins I am in a somewhat similar situation. I just got my third FAR fail with a 73. Tough pill to swallow but not going to give up yet. I'm taking REG on 2/28, so I've had a break from FAR. If I can pass REG this window, my plan is to give myself more time to study for FAR…possibly middle to end of May exam (BEC expires end of July so I have two more chances with FAR).

My issue has been time constraints and getting through all of the material….trying to cram for this one definitely hasn't worked for me. I've heard Jeff mention before that you need to “start fresh” when doing a retake, and that's what I'm going to try and finally do for once this next time around.

The plan is to put in the study plan into my review software with a slight buffer, and study each section bit by bit, instead of trying to learn large chunks all at one. Good luck to you in the rest of your studying.

BEC - 82
AUD - 68, 82
REG - 48, 68, 81
FAR - 60, 70, 73, 77
