    Well, I took FAR yesterday. I went in well prepared this time. It was a rough exam. First testlet was medium, of course. Second one felt like it got harder. The third one either stayed hard or I had no clue. I know that it did not get easier.

    Compared to my first crack at FAR, this test was night and day. First exam was DEFINITELY easier. But that was because I didn’t do well and kept getting medium testlets. I looked at the questions and could have answered them if I had studied. They were basic questions.

    This exam was tough. I feel weird saying this because I was well prepared. I thought if I was well prepared I would feel confidant. I don’t.

    It could really go either way. December 9th feels years away..

    Any advice for staying sane during the waiting period??? This is my last chance at FAR before I lose AUD.

    @Rocky same boat here. Normally I would be studying for another section, but since I am waiting on FAR to see if I have to re-take it I am going to find a nice book to read, for fun.

    CISA- Experience will be completed by August 2016

    Yeah, I took FAR this weekend too…and am pretty sure I will have to re-take (SIMs killed me). I'm going to enjoy my 2 weeks off of studying and catch up on some holiday baking! Nothing drowns my sorrows better than loads of sugar.

    @Rocky I'm also in the same boat. I took FAR on Saturday and if I don't pass I lose AUD. These next 2 weeks are going to be killer but at least it's Thanksgiving and celebrating the holidays might be a distraction. Good Luck!!
