Its time to brag a little. How long did it take you to pass all 4 parts?

It's impressive to have done it quickly, as well as to have done it over a long time. As hard as it is to pass em the first time, I can't imagine the perseverance and mental toughness you need to continue to try after multiple failures. Good stuff!

Took my first exam in April, passed the last on Aug 31. I work full time and managed to have a social life, including two week-long vacations and planning a wedding. With that said, I hope I never have to go through that again.

I started studying for FAR in September of 2012 and took my first exam in December of 2012 (thanks to the Hurricane Sandy extension). I passed my last exam in August of 2013, but I'm still waiting for my license to be approved.

Over that year, I sold my house, lost a dear family member, and dealt with a lot of other issues. As someone once told me, life happens while we are busy making plans. So glad it's done and congrats to all.
