    FINALLY, FAR is tomorrow!! I’ve been studying for about 3 months. I’ve reworked the MCQ, have not reworked simulations. I am currently reviewing notes, because I feel like this is what really is making me feel more comfortable about all the material.

    The second time I reworked all MCQ, I got an average of about 85 %. I have not done ANY progress tests or final Becker review exams. I still need a couple of more hours to finish reviewing my notes. I am also going back to review the areas I feel weak in.

    I am try to decide whether or not to work on the Becker final exam just because I don’t want to burn myself out before tomorrow. I can’t even look at this stuff any longer, and I don’t want to feel exhausted and out of it tomorrow. Is this a bad decision? Do you guys think not doing any progress exams will come back to haunt me?

    A- 77 1X
    F- 83 1X YES!
    B- 81 1X
    R- 73 ._. got cocky. Retake: 83 Done.

    I vote no on the practice exam. As long as you have the timing mapped out, there isn't much to gain from doing a practice exam. And there are lots of cons (confidence killer, doesn't help you learn the material, burnout, exhaustion, etc.). You're better served going over your notes and doing short bursts of MCQs if you like, and better yet resting and keeping yourself calm and focused. Go for a walk, do some stretching, dance like a madman/woman, etc.

    AUD 84 (1/9/14-Wiley books/TB + free materials)
    FAR 83 (5/21/14-the above + NINJA 10 Pt Combo Lite)
    REG 84 (7/9/14-Wiley books/TB + NINJA Audio/FC/Notes)
    BEC 76 (10/5/14-Wiley books/TB + NINJA Audio/FC)

    Just like Kimboroni suggested, don't bother with the progress test, even more that your test is tomorrow. Keep reviewing your notes though. Get a good night's sleep and review the notes in the morning and prior to the test. You've done everything to prepare for this beast. Just walk in with confidence and you'll do great. Good Luck!

    Make sure you get at least 10 hours of sleep tonight. Take a headache pill (make sure it's NON-DROWSY) before you step in the testing center with a happy stomach and a clear bladder bag tomorrow.

    Good luck.

    @HowMany, what I meant was we should clear our natural (our in-house) bladder bag before we step in the testing center. LOL

    You should get some adult pampers too, you will safe a lot of precious minutes by not going to the bathroom. And if you have to do no. 2 then you will safe even more time. The difference between 74 and 75 could be on those pampers.
