    Hey guys….

    Basically, I took FAR in Feb and failed with a 73.

    I took my retake yesterday, June 6.

    Im scheduled for Audit in September.

    Here are my options;

    1) Continuing to study FAR from now until exam score release and if I don’t pass, will retake FAR early July and take Audit in September.

    2) if I don’t pass, push back audit to Q4 and study/take FAR in September.

    I really need to pass FAR but a lot of the material is in areas Im weak in so Im not sure how long I will need to retake the exam again.

    Any advice is appreciated. My REG credit expires February 2017 but I honestly would like to be done by September. Failing in June and failing again in July would be motivating! Im not sure where to go with this (scheduling wise).

    Focus on one test at a time. If you don't think you passed far, just do review notes until scores are revealed if you don't want to tackle aud yet Then again, aud might not need a lot of study time switch and take aud next that will give more time for far.
    I guess I'm not making the decision any better. lol well good luck either way. I hope you passed, problem solved.

    It begins with a 75

    I took FAR 2 weeks ago, and I am pretty sure I failed.
    It was my first exam, so I was not prepared.

    My suggestion is:

    July = FAR (retake)
    Sept. = AUD

    Oct. = AUD (retake if necessary)
    Dec. = FAR (retake if necessary)

    FAR: (05/24/16) | (07/15/16) | (10/22/16)
    AUD: (09/07/16) | (11/29/16) |
    BEC: TBD
    REG: TBD

    In my case I stuck with FAR just to get it out of the way. I didn't like the idea of trying to do another test and then having to go back and start relearning things. Worked out for me, but certainly your mileage may vary. If you study through June and take far again early July, I would think that leaves plenty of time to adequately prepare for AUD.

    FAR - Aug 2015 (58), Feb 2016 (81)
