how many weeks you got left and how you holding up…..I’ve got three weeks left and take FAR on April 18th….the closer I get it seems the less I’m motivated to study….you’d think it would be opposite, but I’m so burnt out…..

spikesrd, if you dont mind me asking, what was your study process/results for REG the second time around? im also taking REG again next week. Good luck to ya

FAR - 75
REG - 69, September 16
BEC - 80
AUD - 69, October 16

I pretty much focused on Ninja MCQs, Ninja Notes, and Ninja Audio. I reset my dashboard in the MCQs and started my stats from scratch. Just for the retake, I've done 2,300 questions and a handful on SIMs. All in, I've attempted about 3,900 questions (includes 1,600 for first crak at REG). Hoping it's enough to get that 75.

What's your study regimen been like @itsanaccrualworld? Good luck to you as well.

REG - 11/30/2015 73, 04/18/2016 80 Done!!!

@spikesrd Ah i see. If you came close last time I think you got this based off of your studying. Seems like we both have been putting a solid amount of time and effort in.

I started with watching the tax and ethics lectures for becker and then doing the MCQ's for those sections. After that I got the Ninja mcq's and have done about 2300 questions, mostly comprised of tax/ethics. Feeling OK about my current standing, trending around 88 with average score around 67.

This weekend im just powering through b-law ninja mcq's since i havent put much time into this area. Should have a good amount of time during the week to do plenty of sims and review some more mcq's, just somewhat uneasy about the average score. Wish it was higher, but seems like everyone has a higher trending score vs average score.

FAR - 75
REG - 69, September 16
BEC - 80

itsanaccrualworld, what are you averaging on Becker? Have you taken Becker's final? You think ninja questions for reg a lot harder than Becker? As I told you before, I also got a 54 on Reg, so I'm very nervous.

@stilgoin thanks for the words of encouragement. I really needed to hear that. I'm just burnt out. I am going to follow your advice and just relax. I'll get my score and if it's as bad I fear, take a few weeks off and start working MCQ sometime in June.

I have so much respect for the resilience people show to get through this process. Especially the people that lose credits and still wind up passing. It's amazing to me. I don't know how they can keep going. Thanks for listening.i feel down in the dumps right now so it's good to be able to vent.

FAR - 8/16/15 - 82
AUD -10/26/15 - 87
REG -01/28/16 - 80
BEC -02/27/16 - 74 (very sad), 4/16/16 - 77

[itsanaccrualworld]

I cant see what i was averaging on becker unfortunately, except for that i have the tax/ethics sections about 95-100% done. I think i recall some sub sections that had 100+ questions id get low-high 60's going through the first time. The second time around would do much better. Havent done the final exams with Becker, i think they are an inefficient use of time.

Ninja i think does a better job when it comes to mcq, but i feel its good to go through ninja and becker cause you see some questions asked in different ways. I wouldn't be nervous about the 54, its in the past. Plus now you can use it as motivation and you now have an idea of the test and what you can improve on.

Cheers to staying in and studying all weekend. There should be a “power hour” thread tonight for those who give up and start drinking haha

FAR - 75
REG - 69, September 16

itsanaccrualworld, weird that we both had the same score on Bec and Reg. I find Reg a bit easier than BEC. Cheers, and dont forget to practice simulations.

Yeah, how bout that! I think reg is easier than bec in that the math calculations are fairly easy for reg. bec i feel like is more math intensive

I have FAR on 5/31 and cannot get motivated to study. The amount of material is extremely overwhelming. I find it much harder to prepare for this one than the last three.

I started this thread three weeks ago and just got out of the FAR exam….For those of you who have passed that SOB hats off…..that thing was an animal….one of my sims had two info tabs one of which had 6 hyperlinks to external documents needed to answer the questions…..there is no place for that kind of BS on a timed exam with this much at stake…I literally spent 20 minutes trying to get my bearings and figure out what was being asked and where I needed to go to find the answers….the MCQs pretty much slapped my 7 weeks of studying in the face…I knew about 90 percent of what they were asking on each question and that 10% gray area had me second guessing every answer…. projected score ranges between 55 and 85

@dontevenlikeacct: keep your head up! Based on your other scores you look like you do very well on these exams. I am sure that SIM with all those documents had to be a pretest because I agree it is ridiculous to put that on a timed exam! I actually felt way worse than you did though when I came out of FAR and I ended up with a 75! The hardest test out of all them and it was the only one I passed on a first shot haha so I am sure you will be ok! Let us know how it ends up.

In the meantime I will be studying my arse off for BEC and thankfully have found some motivation to keep studying thanks to this thread!!

AUD - 69, 77
REG - 74, 81
FAR - 75!
BEC - 71, 82

IL candidate!

Finally done (5/24/16)!! Yahooooooo!

@dontevenlikeacct, I'm pretty sure that one sims with all those links is a pretest….
