    So i have 17 days until my exam and i am about 38% through the adaptive learning phase. My question is since i have been scoring on avg i feel 70% is 17 days enough time to bring that up and feel more confident? I also plan to hammer out MCQ, read Ninja Notes, and read over some in the Ninja Book.

    FAR - Passed 4/2016
    AUD - Passed 11/2015
    REG - ?
    BEC - 05/28/2016

    In my opinion… that is definitely enough time.

    AUD - 72, 81
    FAR - 71, 78
    REG - 60, 78
    BEC - 60, 71, 71

    IF I FALL, I WILL GET BACK UP. IF I AM BEATEN, I WILL RETURN.

    where is that at? I was just asking since i took 3 days off due to family vacation and i came back and started back up and seems like i have forgotten a lot. Just wanted to see if 17 days was enough time to get all the way through the questions and bring my confidence back.

    @kyle, type in the search button how to pass in 20 days, it should come up.. Others have used that technique in a time crunch maybe it will help you.

    you didnt say which exam youre taking? thats kind of important. i cannot speak for FAR

    i ahve only had experience with AUD/REG/BEC and spent about 20 days on each BEC/AUD and have a lil under 3 weeks until i take REG. i am a crammer by nature. the key is to not lose your cool and get nervous that you're not learning anything and that you procrastinated and youre screwed etc etc. DONT let that mentality work against you. DONT make the time crunch cause negative thoughts in your head. make a schedule,

    when i study towards the end i like to teach myself the main concepts. but for minutiae ask a question like “am i possibly going to get more than 1 MCQ question on this specific item/information?” if not, then it is not worth wasting even a half hour on. i am willing to optimize my studying and prioritize the information. because lets face it with 17 days left you cant study everything and are going to need to cut corners.

    also, i assume you are working full time when you say 17 days. its totally doable while working at least for me and my procrastinatory nature. if you are unemployed then it is DEFINITELY doable.

    My friend passed AUD in 3 and another friend spent 2 weeks on FAR so Yes! Dedicate a lot of time to note taking, sims, and mcq.
