    I posted the other day about my pre-exam anxiety. Admittedly, I took the exam having skipped two chapters. I simply ran out of time with my studying and gambled by taking it now instead of rescheduling for October. I felt that I knew enough material to pass and giving myself 5 more weeks was too much time. I also wanted to give myself two attempts to pass since I can lose REG next quarter. Unfortunately, this probably backfired. The topics I skipped dominated my exam. It was unreal. I’m 99% sure I failed – I’m so sure I started studying those chapters after my exam.

    My dilemma is what to do about my score. I have to check it on the long shot that I did pass, but what if I failed with a score in 40s or something? I’ll panic. And how to I manage REG? If I take FAR in early Oct, I won’t find out my score until mid-Oct so do I start studying REG after I take FAR?. If I fail FAR, I’ll have to pass FAR and REG in Jan to avoid losing BEC. I’m so stressed out.

    Passed all sections.
