I failed FAR yet again. The first time I got a 73 the second a 63. I studied harder the second time. I understood the concepts better, I felt the test went better and yet I got ten points lower than the first time. I don’t know what to do. I just want to give up. I’m three chapters into REG I understood the first two chapters with ease but this third chapter is feeling a lot like FAR. I am so sick and tired of how hard this test is, so what we can do one thing that other accountants can’t? Why is the test so hard? What is my best strategy here? Should I continue planning to take REG the beginning of January and then retake FAR yet again at the end of January? I need to pass these exams. I need to move out of my parent’s place and I need to start living my life. I’ve always put studying ahead of everything else in my life and now at 24 I just want to live my life because it is way too short to only have studying to show for the small amounts of achievements I have done in my life. Everyone else is getting married and having kids and yeah maybe I don’t want all of that right away but I’m sick of putting my life on hold. So any advice on what to do? Any motivation for pushing through this instead of giving up? Because this is a goal of mine and I want so badly to achieve it I just can’t help but wonder at what cost am I willing though. I want to live my life and this test is just putting it on hold for what seems like forever. I am very emotional right now so that probably isn’t helping. I just need anyone who has been through this to give me some advice and tell me this isn’t hopeless.
