    Taking Reg in about 3 weeks and trying to see if I have allocated enough time on my review. I’ve heard some spent 1/3 of time on B-Law and 2/3 of time on Tax. For those of you who took Reg, what do you think? I am confident in Individual tax, but not for others. Should I leave most of the time for Corp, partnership, estate and gift and do a brief review on individual? Some suggests not to master the material but should know as many as topics(like FAR). I have both Becker and Wiley books. Any tips are appreciated.

    If this is your first time taking I would study tax as hard as law if this is the 2nd time I would focus on tax.

    i spent most of my time in law as i had much more of a tax background. i couldn't figure out the logic of some law questions at all.

    I have a tax background and just made sure I knew the tax side. I read law 2 times and did HW but did not spend a whole lot of time making sure I knew every little thing.

    FAR- 75
    REG- 82
    BEC- 73, 79!! Its over. Am I dreaming?
    AUD- 74, 74, 88

    Thanks for the tips. I have gone over Law and Individual tax fairly quick and felt I remember more than I expected as least for now. I am planning to read the book once and do the questions again until final review. I am not sure what to do during Final review yet. Practice MC and simulations only? or devote some time to re-read the book? What do you think?
