Hey everyone!
As a new member of the site, just wanted to say congratulations to all who have passed the exam, and good luck to all who are currently studying for it. I just finished chapter 2 of the Becker materials for FAR, and I wanted to share my study strategy with everyone. Any advice is welcome!
My story is that I am starting work in September, and I decided to try and get FAR out of the way before I start working. I am currently not working at all, and my study schedule is as follows (using Becker):
I watch the lecture and review all my notes (7-8 hour)
The next day I do all of the practice questions and sims (4-5 hours, I find that I am going through the MCQ's too quickly) I also take notes on all of the questions I get wrong and make them into flashcards (2 hours)
I plan to do this for 20 days and then the final 10 days before the exam, I plan to review my flash cards, all my notes, and take the 2 Becker final exams. I always have an uneasy feeling while studying because of the sheer volume of the material, but I have just taken an advanced financial accounting course and I remember most of the topics. Let me know what you guys think!
