Hello,

Looking to schedule a test date. Is there a round about time frame in weeks most study for Reg when starting from scratch?

For prior sections I usually am able to study around 25 hours a week.

Thanks for any input you can offer.

I'd try to do about 6 weeks if you have no tax experience.

I didn’t have much experience with tax when I first started studying. I spent a total of 5 weeks. However, the first 3 were a shit-show (Due to longer hours at work. I still followed my schedule studying for about 35 hours a week, but these weren’t quality hours) and the last 2 weeks involved full-time studying (took time off from work). Surprisingly, Wiley has less material for REG than for BEC and most tax material is in the second half of the course, which I believe helped me because I wasn’t absorbing much during the first 3 weeks of studying. BTW, I finished the course in 4 weeks and the 5th week was just for a review.

Agree with Recked – if you are doing 25 hours a week, 6 weeks should be enough.

FAR - PASSED 11/14
AUD - TBD
BEC - TBD
REG - First take 2/16
