    I know this may be very subjective, but wanted to see if anyone could share insight.

    I’ve passed AUD & BEC, now I’m trying to decide if FAR or REG should be next. I’m intimidated by both of them, however REG much moreso because tax and B-law were not my best topics in college. (> 7 years ago)

    Leaning toward FAR because I’ve heard that some of the AUD & BEC knowledge can be shared with FAR.. but I have no clue.

    Thoughts???

    REG - tbd (8/2016)
    FAR - tbd

    After passing both FAR and REG I would recommend you take FAR because it is more difficult. Also it will involved way more time studying than REG.

    Good luck with the next half of exam.

    BEC 78 08/2015
    REG 71 11/2015, RETAKE 83 01/2016
    FAR 75! 5/2016
    AUD ? 8/2016

    Not only is FAR a little more difficult but, yes, some things learned in BEC and AUD will show up in FAR.

    FAR: 80 (Gleim, Ninja Notes, Ninja MCQs)
    REG: 87 (Gleim, Ninja Notes, Ninja MCQs)
    BEC: 87 (Gleim, Ninja Notes, Ninja MCQs)

    FAR is like 2x the size of the others. Depends on how much time you have. Your review phase is not too much longer, but the first pass through the material is a task. So whichever period you have more time is the one I would take FAR in.

    A - 79 expires 4/30/16 need a pass on REG
    B - 78
    F - 80
    R - 83!!! Can live again!

    I would suggest FAR. There are definitely topics in FAR that will look familiar when you are studying for REG. Also, I would say that FAR is definitely more challenging and material intensive, so while you have the brainpower and determination go ahead and attempt to knock that one out. If you're anything like me, the last test will be a challenge just because you're so over studying the long hours! Either way, good luck! You got this!

    REG: 89

    FAR: 76

    AUD: TBD

    BEC: TBD

    Thanks all – now I'm definitely leaning toward FAR.

    Do you think 6-7 weeks study time is enough? I work full time and have a 2 hour commute (round trip). I am planning on using all NINJA (minus the book). I was aiming to sign up the week of July 25th. Then I can turn around and take REG the last week of extended testing window.

    Thoughts?
