@ahugemistake – Actually, I didn't read the entire book and never did. I only read few topics that I found difficult. I just watched the videos and wrote my own notes. After watching the videos, I did the homework MCQs for the said topic.
Below was my schedule:
Mondays – Fridays: Studied an hour during my lunch break. Sometimes I couldn't study depending on my daily workload. Studied 2-3 hours at night. I usually took a break on Friday or Monday nights. I just went on my own pace. Using the CPAExcel Planner, I always set the exam date 2 weeks before my actual exam. As you can see below that I did have 2 weeks final review by doing as many MCQs as I could (90%) while reading my notes (10%) when I seemed to forget.
Saturdays – Sundays: Studied at least 4 hours per day. Whenever I felt like I was burnt, I took a day off not to study.
Final Review: 3 weeks
1st week – I re-typed my notes
Last two weeks were mostly doing MCQs again topic by topic for the 2nd time then did at least 2 simulations. I did the MCQs on WTB twice. 🙂 and I wished I did take a look at all the SIMS on WTB for REG.
Anything worth doing is probably not easy, but the rewards are worth it. (unknown)
