    I definitely wish I was one of those people who got all 4 exams done in 4 months, but unfortunately LIFE (being a newlywed, stress, adjusting to newlywed life and cpa exam study life, as well as starting a job with a Big4 which I am very happy about) got in the way, just happy that I am passing period!!

    I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me!

    hopefulcpa8 I'm in the same situation. Went strong for the first 3 tests but struggling majorly for FAR. Had to cancel my perfect test date of Aug 30 for an Oct slot b/c I fell too far behind. Missed 3Q completely.

    We need to just stay the course and finish this test!

    @James – hahaha!

    Just think about that glorious day when you're done. Or, think about that horrendous day when you realize you have to study and take it again. One or both of those should motivate you to buckle down and make sure this thing gets done.

    By the way, more power to you saving FAR for last. I see where it might be better because you might work harder at it since it's the last one, but I couldn't do it. Had to get that monster out of the way up front.

    For me, I figured if I needed to retake an exam I couldn't imagine that exam being FAR. Reg I cant handle.

    Here's my best FAR tip: don't skimp on Gov./NFP!!!!!!!! See that 74 in my signature? My ONLY weak topic on my score report was Gov./NFP.

    REG: 75 DONE 🙂
    AUD: 61, 71, 68, 92 DONE 🙂
    BEC: 76 DONE 🙂
    FAR: 72, 74, 79 DONE 🙂

    I skimped on Govt/NFP in my material, but I think WTB and Ninja Audio saved me. I wasn't confident I would pass because there was so much Govt/NFP.
