    I’m still powering though my FAR material for my retake on 5/28. Anyone else in cram mode? I’m planning for a 25 hour study weekend 5 hrs Friday night, 10 Saturday, 10 Sunday. I want my life back so let’s get it done! How about you?

    BEC - 84
    FAR - 77
    REG - 75
    So glad to be done!

    @memmy, count me in. Two more Power weekends and we will be done hopefully. My plan is to work as much on Friday, then go to library or lock myself in walk-in closet for as many hours as I can handle on Saturday, and half of day on Sunday.

    Happy studying!

    I'm in. Could potentially be my last one ever! But with all the comments from people about BEC and how they felt unprepared using Becker alone is making me extremely fearful. I don't think I've ever been this nervous for any of the other 3 exams I've taken!

    I'm in! Not too busy at work today, so I'm going to try and get in around 100 mc's (not counting my lunch). Dinner plans tonight with a friend from out of town, so I need to be as productive today as I can. Feeling pretty good on most of the topics in REG, but I'm starting to get more and more nervous…

    A 76

    I'm in… promised myself I wouldn't leave the house during the weekend. Except maybe to a coffee shop if I get bored studying. I have two weeks till my AUD exam and I just started ‘seriously' studying today (NTS is expiring).

    Good luck all. We can do this!

    Put in a few hours today, less than planned due to going out to get groceries. Better shape up tomorrow but at least got done with Partnership lecture, will cover MCQ + sim on Saturday;

    Additionally, plan to rework estates, trusts and Circular 230 by the end of the weekend.
