I don’t know if I should continue studying, take a break, or what. This will be (BEC) my last exam, but in all likelihood I will likely be back at the prometric in April. I am just so tense over this result, also cause I keep having nightmares that I keep failing over and over until I start losing credit.

Also any review course that anyone would recommend? My Becker thing is completely expiring, should I just Re-Up with Becker or go a different direction (that Roger guy seems to have a good teaching style, and Gleim seems to be a challenge). I have been using NINJA MCQ as a supplement for each section.

Thanks. Good luck to everyone testing today.

FAR 5/6/2015- 84
REG 8/3/2015 - 87
AUD 10/25/2015- 69 1/20/2016 -75
BEC 2/26/2016- 80

Thank you God

I'm in the same boat. The wait period for this final exam has been the shortest for me (only 1.5 weeks.) but its definitely the most excruciating one. I get waves of nausea when I think about score release and just planning on waiting it out without studying…

Also, Roger has been good to me. I'd recommend his course and Ninja MCQ.

Since it is such a short time, just wait for score release. Hopefully after that you don't have to even think about this!

I already bought BEC (Gleim) but I can't force myself to look at the materials for some reason. If I failed Reg, I will take both tests next window regardless. Seeing that this is your last exam, I would just chill out until the score release

AUD - 1st - 60 (12/12), 61 (2/13), 61 (8/13), 78! (11/15)
REG - 55 (2/16) 69 (5/16) Retake(8/16)
BEC - 71(5/16) Retake (9/16)
FAR - (8/16)

I am waiting for my attempt 2 result for FAR. I think I didn't make it (TBS killed me). I already started re-studying FAR again for April attempt.

@payaza2000 – I went and purchased Gleim for AUD, FAR and BEC for all my attempts so far. I agree w/ you that it's overwhelming and also has many MCQ's compared to Becker. I think the Premium version doesn't expire. I would personally recommend going w/ Gleim. Roger's lectures are great hands down.

I'm all about planning for the worst while hoping for the best; also, absolutely certain I failed FAR.

Sooo….took a few days off, purchased WileyExcel AUD materials, and have been reviewing those as well as FAR. I reset all my Ninja progress, too. Might as well start from zero.

frenchmen, i really don't know. it just went. i am so nonplussed and that is a strange feeling. in some ways it felt too easy and that makes me wonder if i missed the trick in the questions or if i grabbed the first answer that agreed with mine because they knew what mistake i would make. there were a couple of gimme's that i am sure i missed thinking back on them. just dumb wording and me rushing. the questions are so weird. i was worried about running out of time and didn't. had a minute or two to spare. didn't freak out like with aud. not freaking out while waiting like with aud. i feel like i have no skin in the game. very odd. a pass or fail will not surprise me – this could easily go either way. if i have to do a retake i will get a different mcq set to see if i can get one with more similar wording. i just want to have REG left and it will be a long haul.
thanks for asking. this felt good.
how are you?

I just took FAR today, and it's my last section as well. Thankfully, it's not any longer than 9 days, but it's going to be such a long 9 days! Especially with it being my last section! Also, I don't know how I feel about the retake either. I was hoping I'd walk out feeling like I definitely smoked it, but unfortunately, that's not the case. I don't feel awful (like I did the first time I failed), but I don't feel great, which is going to make this wait very stressful.

payaza2000, I'm not going to be studying. I'm going to wait until the score release and see (hopefully, won't have to open another Becker book ever again!).

I'd suggest the same for you, even if you don't feel good about the result. Who knows, you may have done better than you think. Plus, it would be good for you to have a little break from studying, even if you do end up failing.

AUD - 85 (8/30/2015)
FAR - 73 (10/13/2015), 85 (2/29/2016) (AND DONE!)
BEC - 83 (11/04/2015)
REG - 81 (11/30/2015)

I took FAR today and I'm thankful I ‘only' have to wait 9 days since it's the last day of a window. I've planned my previous exams to be before holidays and have taken a 2 week break before studying again. FAR was difficult, but it wasn't the monster that I was expecting it to be, so I'm cautiously optimistic. The wait is going to be harder this time, considering it was my last one. I had a hard time sleeping last night because I started thinking about how much was riding on today and how much I wanted it to be over with. My family is coming in town to celebrate my birthday later this week, so that'll keep me occupied until next Monday. I may do some reading this weekend during down time and do a few quizzes next week just to keep the material fresh in my head. I hope after next Thursday, the next time I look at my materials, it will be either to burn them or give them to one of the people i know is studying. 🙂 Speaking of materials, I'm a HUGE fan of Roger. I've only used him throughout this whole process and I feel like it's done a very good job of preparing me to take the exams.

BEC - 88 8/29/15
