    Hey Ninjas,

    I’m taking FAR on August 31st and I probably have another good 25-30 hours of study time I’ll get in. Just wanted to run out my situation and plan, and see what advice you folks have.

    I’m working through the Ninja MCQ’s section by section and have “seen” 55% of the questions. My average score is 78%. The “unseen” questions are basically all of Gov. and NFP, and most of specific transactions, events and disclosures. I did a class on Gov/NFP last month, so I’m not too worried there.

    Haven’t done any sims but, I’m familiar with them after doing a bunch of CPAexcel over the last year. My main weak sections (under 70%) are Payables & Receivables, Notes & Bonds Payable, Deferred Tax Assets/Liabilities and Business Combinations. I don’t expect a lot of more trouble from the rest of the list.

    My plan was to work through the remaining 731 questions at least once and then review the main problem areas. Problem is the remaining MCQ’s would eat up most if not all of my remaining study hours. I’m thinking I should work 25%-50% of the remaining questions and see if any other problem areas shake out, and then spend more time reviewing the weak sections and even rewriting notes, as per Jeff.

    Would greatly appreciate any advice from y’all. Thanks!
