I took FAR last week. It’s my last exam. I didn’t feel too confident leaving the testing center. I ran out of time and couldn’t finish 2 sims. Should I keep studying in order to be ready for a retake in January? Or relax and wait until score release on 12/7 before looking at the material again? I really want this to be the end, but I don’t want to waste precious study time sitting around waiting. Any suggestions?

I didn't finish two of my SIMs either and I still passed. If I were you, I'd give my mind a break and wait for the score release. If you don't feel comfortable doing that then maybe do a couple mini quizzes each day to keep your mind around the material but I wouldnt stress out and study all the time. I'm sure your mind needs a break…

I would wait. If you don't pass… Dec 7th through the begining of January is enough time to prepare for a re-take

Clear your head and take a break.

I'd take a break…you deserve it…you just may have passed and won't need to re-study!

It's only until 12/7 so there should be plenty of time after that for re-study, if necessary.

Its only a week..take a break and start refreshed..which hopefully you wont need to..

Good luck!

@ANA9816: You mentioned you didn't finish two of your SIMS. I had seven sims and completed Three which I know I did really well on. Of the four SIMS left two were research SIMS. I heard research SIMS are not worth many points. The multiple choice got more difficult ass I progressed so I am assuming I did well on the MCQ. My question to you is. I am not asking for your score, but did you have enough of a passing score that you could have maybe not completed 3 SIMS? I know I am reaching here, but I hope I passed.

No I wouldn't keep studying right now (your head and heart won't be in it anyway if you are so close to being done!) unless you are climbing the walls waiting for the score and looking for a brief distraction.

I'm in the same boat, except I took REG and I'm not opening those nasty books until I know for a fact that I have to. I'm holding on to the last shred of hope that maybe, just maybe, I pulled it off.
