I really dont know what to do, i failed Far twice this time with 56… such a low and embarrassing score.. i really did study a lot, i dont have any social life… and still fail… maybe its just not my path maybe i was destined to do something else.. not to be a CPA :(… miserable feeling.
For me,I took FAR 3 times.
First time, I skipped Gov't because you already have a lot to cover and I didn't think it would be that important. I got 61.
Second time, I studied Gov't lightly but didn't get deep into it and got 74.
Third time, I studied Gov't only and got 76. (lost pts on other areas of the subject because I didn't put much time on my 3rd try)
I feel exactly like @larzetme does in the original post except I scored worse with a 49. Seriously depressing. Sacrificing months of my time and not even close. I studied with Wiley and I was unable to cover all of the material so I guess I shouldn't be surprised but there's sooo much material and I guess I'm a slow studier. I normally watch the videos and take notes on that. Anyway I also failed AUD with a 63 plus I studied for Reg and missed by exam day ughh I feel like I can't catch a break and that nothing is going right. I am beyond frustrated and I also feel like giving up but I know that it will always be in the back of my mind if I do give up. So now I am a week into my study material for BEC which I plan to take in November and then try to do all the retakes starting with retaking FAR first. I started with Aud in March of this year and was desperately hoping I would be done by this year but it seems like its probably going to take me at least a whole extra year and that IF I'm able to pass. How does everyone do this? How do you manage to stay motivated? Have no social life? Have a family life? Work and manage all of this information in your brain so you don't forget it all on test day? I am struggling so much……
larzetme, don't give up I know it sucks but this can happen, you might not be studying in a way that you learn best or have the best review material. You have to get 150 credit hours to even sit for the exam, I know you are smart enough and I believe in you.
