    Great blog post. It's always a good motivational tool to hear a story of someone that took a hard look at their studying habits, made a change, and was successful.

    Congrats Katrina!

    Great post….even through all those initial failure she still persevered. It really reminded me that if I want this I have to put the time QUALITY time in

    FAR: April or May 2014
    AUD:
    REG:
    BEC:
    Scared: 100

    FAR first and only attempt: 2014 Wiley textbook, 10 Pt Combo, and WTB

    I only get one try to have to give it my all and try to get 75 on my first go around.

    This is a great post and I echo the sentiment.

    Pound through the boring Wiley book, then do MCQs, and then write notes on what you missed. Score at least 80 on all of the chapters in the Wiley test bank. It is a simple formula, but NOT an EASY one.

    I would also agree that practicing sims is VITAL. MCQs alone won't cut it and you need to go through extended examples.

    Hopefully I will be able to have enough time to follow my own advice for my last REG exam in a couple weeks!
