    Honestly did not feel good coming out of REG on March 2nd. I’d like to stay optimistic but at the same time want to start studying for a retake….anyone else feel the same?

    yup took the weekend off after taking AUD on 3/10 and just started up again on monday for the retake. Might as well just keep the train moving and plan on the retake in early April. Then I can just forget about it over the summer and wait until the release in August.

    I am waiting until I receive my score then I will start to study again if I failed. Q2 sucks since we would have to wait until August to find out scores.

    r_f_94, what about Audit didn't you feel good about?

    I'm cautiously optimistic that I took my last exam on 3/9….Can't even wrap my head around dealing with this thing with the whole Q2 fiasco

    I plan on retaking BEC sometime in April. I took AUD on 3/10 and I'm taking the rest of March off from studying.

    I'm hitting a few sets of MCQs in the evenings to keep my game up just in case I need to sit for FAR again. Hoping for the best, preparing for the worst…

    B - 77 (2.27.16)
    A - 81 (4.18.16)

    Yea, I'm not touching it until I get my score. With the super long score release in Q2 there is no point

    would never be a bad idea to do a few MCQs everyday to at least keep the information fresh if the worst case scenario does happen. been many times where i take two weeks off and start studying for a retake and lose a lot of information. otherwise i would definitely recommend taking a few days off!

    AUD - 69, 77
    REG - 74, 81
    FAR - 75!
    BEC - 71, 82

    IL candidate!

    Finally done (5/24/16)!! Yahooooooo!

    I'm too burned out. I did that with all my other exams. Not gonna do it on this last one. I feel I deserve a 10 day break

    I figure if I didn't pass, then the 12 days of no studying will help my mind reset. When/if I look at the material again, it will give me a fresh start to studying and not continue any bad habits from exhaustion.

    Have you failed an exam CPYay? If not, I don't think you are gonna start now looking at your past scores

    I have doubts about me passing FAR (last section). Started level 2 of the CFA just to stay fresh in case I failed, head start if I passed.

    BEC - 87 | 02/28
    REG - 70 | 06/10, REMATCH | 08/30
    AUD - XX | 09/10
    FAR - XX | 12/10

    Not yet. My past scores shouldn't be indicative of my next score… But I REALLY REALLY hope so… haha

    ^^Nothing is guaranteed, but based on what I've seen on this forum people tend to cluster their scores.

    You haven't failed and you've scored high. To me that that indicative that you know how to study for this exam and I'm sure you prepared adequately for REG

    Thanks! I hope so… REG was the weirdest study experience for me. I was able to gauge my readiness on the other exams. Up until the week before the REG exam, I felt very confident. Then a week before, I suddenly felt like I was very unsure and confused. I was still scoring well on my MCQs, but I didn't feel like it translated to my readiness. I started confusing concepts with each other.

    The same feeling carried into my exam. I felt completely unsure of most questions and felt clueless through the SIMS. Was odd to say the least. I'm hoping it was in my head moreso than my output.

    ^^Literally exactly the same experience. I was trending 83% on Ninja and felt very confident. Some of the MCQ on the exam came out of left field and I made several stupid mistakes on the sims
