Hi all,
I just got my exam results back today for FAR and I failed AGAIN. I need some advice because clearly I am doing something seriously wrong and wasting a ton of money that I do not have. I have been studying for this exam since June of 2012! Here's a little background on me. I really really hope someone can help lead me down the correct pass.
1st attempt: November 2012 (62), January 2013 (66), and May 2013 (72). I have been using the Becker self study. I studied all the MC and all the SIMS all three times. First Exam: After leaving the exam I felt like I bombed both parts. Second Exam: I walked out and felt I like I bombed the SIMS. Third attempt: I actually stupidly thought i passed! I felt confident on the MC and felt like I had the easiest sims yet. I know I got the research and most of the credit on 2 others, and partial credit on the other 4. I really thought it was enough to pass.
ALSO- I literally rewrote all the topics from the entire book, highlighting, different color pens, EVERYTHING. its like 80 pages front and back!! ahhhhhhh. So it's not like I'm not trying my little heart out.
What can I do moving forward? I was already midway into chapter 3 of REG. Should I keep going with REG? Or go back to FAR while its "slightly" fresh?
If I go back to FAR, maybe I should???:
-Go back and do all the MC and all the SIMS again? I mean its like 1600 questions... but is that the right way??
-Do a ton of progress test again???
-Purchase the final review? ??
-Start the rewriting all over on parts that Im not familiar with??
-Retake on first available day.. July 1?
Or Keep going with REG?:
To take july 15ish? Bec the end of Aug? And try to redo Far in the last window?? who knowwwssss
My only concern is that I have 3 exams left to take and my audit section is expiring in December. So I only have these next two windows to work some miracles. Right now, I don't have any work to do at work so I can study all day (for the time being. It could change at any time.) I just need to figure out how to best use my time because SOMETHING IS NOT WORKING!
I truly do want to pass and I'm starting to feel extremely desperate. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
