I was going to make a thread about this but since this was brought up. I remember my sister used to tell me that there were 2 types of people in this world, you're either a Mariah or a Whitney. As an accountant, I finally understood what she meant. There are 2 types of people too, you're either a REG or an AUD person. For me, I think if you passed REG, you CAN pass FAR. Hell, you can pass ANY test after REG. To me, I think REG is so much harder than FAR.
But similar to what the other people, people play to their strengths. My only advice for FAR is not forcing yourself to memorize everything, you need to understand every topic to a certain degree. I would take a look at the CSO and try to base your studying off that. I know one person did it and it was a lot more efficient that way. If you force yourself to understand and grasp the parts that are more heavily tested, you'll most likely do better. SIMs are always hit or miss because sometimes you get SIMs that you're like, did I even learn this? Given that it seems that you're not doing well on them, I would make an effort to practice more SIMs and understand why you did it wrong in the first place. Also, PRACTICE and STUDY journal entries. For every transaction there is, understand the journal entry and how it relates to the F/S. Don't despair, those are good scores. Keep it up.
Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved - Helen Keller
