I took FAR about a week and I keep reading everyones experiences, making me a little anxious.

The testlets went ok. First one went by quick and the second one got a littler harder. Then the third testlet didn’t really change much. Seemed like it got easier. I didn’t see too much change it difficulty.

Seems like people are commenting on how the SIMS destroyed them. For me, that weren’t that bad. Found the research sim in the first 5 mins and finished the other ones pretty quickly. There was one bond sim that had some tricky wording that I have never seen before. But I did my best and made educated guesses.

Any advice or similar experiences? This was my second attempt at FAR

I took my third attempt on wednesday. My second testlet was harder for me but I am not sure it was really hard. I am never sure with these exams! When I took REG I didn't feel that my testlets got harder and I passed on the first try. My FAR exam had manageable sims, as well. Know that the sims are pre-selected prior to your exam, so even if you got easy sims it doesn't mean that you did bad on the MCQ.

I cannot wait until the 21st … or maybe I can! lol.

I can't wait either, not sure if I should start my final section, BEC. But I hate waiting game. This is the longest I have to wait, June 21 and I took it on the fourth. I do know the sims and preselected and since I think I did well is a boost.

Well see, its tough sometimes to if it gets harder or not. I studied pretty hard so maybe I knew the material better

Omg, BEC is my last section after this too! I have tried to get it out of the way and in Q1 & Q2 got consecutive 74s… Literally one of the worst feelings. I decided to take a break for a couple weeks, I am going to be traveling. I plan to sit for BEC around July 20th.

oh wow that is unfortunate. I am working full time and wondering how I could tackle it. I need to keep FAR in my mind still incase I failed but well see.
