– I can’t remember all the IFRS stuff

IS THIS NORMAL!?

I feel the same way and also test tomorrow! I'm using Becker but have not completed the review by no means so I'm going in completely neutral. If I pass it will be a gift from God! But, if not I'll regroup and at least know what the exam is like.

Good luck to you!

Completely normal. I felt the same way. I would review something and think omg I forgot that! Trust me, the knowledge is there. It may not feel that way, but it's there in the old noggin and it will come to you during the exam. Personally I would take it easy tomorrow before your exam, light review.

Best of luck to all of you testing soon!

Thanks guys! I feel a little better!!

Oh, I also have not taken any of the review tests on Becker… and I have not done any SIMs practice questions.

Haha. Oops.

I feel the same way for my FAR test Monday. I'm going to sleep with FAR audio on repeat all night to see if I can retain more in my subconscious. And keep on praying for a passing grade!

FAR 65 8/17/15 (NINJA Notes/Book/Audio/MCQ) retake 4/3/16 61 (Gleim didn't study)3rd try Nov '16

Quite the opposite. I felt like I knew enough and further reviewing wouldn't help. On test day, did very well on MCQs but not so much on SIMs. You'll do well as long as you know how to do something, which doesn't have to be the perfect way but at least a sense of how to do it (if you know what I'm getting at).

FAR 84 (AUG '15)
BEC 83 (AUG '15)
AUD 79 (OCT '15)
REG 71, 78! (NOV '15, FEB '16)

Yep, completely normal. I was so worried I couldn't sleep the night before. Had coffee and eggs for breakfast but it gave me an upset stomach. Had barely enough time for sims. I was nervous and out of it but somehow, I passed. I didn't walk out feeling terrible but felt it could go either way. I was very surprised to find someone with a 94 who didn't feel ready!

As long as you know something about the majority of topics, you'll be okay.

FAR 57 (11/2014), 64 (1/2015), 79 (7/2015)
AUD 68 (2/2015), 79 (11/2015)
REG 79 (1/2016)
BEC 81 (4/2016)
