Good luck to everybody as well. I hope I could enjoy the NFL season. I think I might watch the BEC Homestudy for the second time to reinforce all the concepts. It's not nearly as bad if you have been through all the questions, and have an idea of what she's talking about. It's was hard the first time around.

I will also be doing a lot of praying to St Joe Cupertino…..Two 75's so far

It is crazy study sessions till Aug 30. It is go time, it is now or never, do or die time!! I am trying to fill all the holes on Audit. I have put the family on alert that Mom is out of commission. Using the crock pot alot and it is everyone man for himself. No, before you judge me—-my youngest is almost 16, the oldest is off at school (UT Knoxville) so I think the boys can manage.

Best of luck on FAR!!! I am hoping this is it for you.

Everybody else : knock em dead! take no prisoners! come on passing scores!! best of luck guys!!

I am locking myself up at the office for the weekend. I have friends coming tonight and family coming tomorrow but told them all I would not be at my house this weekend.

Balls to the wall from here until Tuesday.

Allyson,

Balls to the walls baby!!!

Fri-Sun marathon for me! 3 days of studying until REG here we go!

T-Rex what's your plan of attack to nail down FAR?

Good luck everyone!

FAR 75 (X2) Previous score 67
BEC 79 (X2) Previous score 58

@yankee & allyson,

I'm hiding out too! No distractions needed (other than this board, which I find to be very helpful and supportive).

@peanut,

I'm solid on Becker 1, 2, 8, & 9, but not the others, so my plan of attack is this:

Fri (Today): Focus on Ch.3, especially equity method, acquisition method, & interco trx. Review my written notes, the Becker Final Review notes, and redo all of the PM questions for my weak areas at least twice. Also do all Final Review questions for Ch. 3. Close out with several practices quizzes on 1-3, 8-9.

Sat: Similar to today, but with an emphasis on Ch. 4.

Sun: Similar to today, but with an emphasis on Ch. 5.

Mon: Rewrite notes for 1-5, 8-9, and study them like crazy, memorizing items that need to be memorized. Do many progress quizzes on those sections, and review any weak areas.

I haven't mapped out next week just yet, but I'll have to get 6 & 7 in.

I'm going to aim for 12 hour study days broken into 2-hour chunks. I give myself a 20-minute nap in between 2-hour periods if needed to clear my head and re-energize.

Good luck, Everyone!
