I am looking for some honest and open advice/comment/critique/evaluation of my study habits and plan going into FAR scheduled 1/31. First CPA exam.
I am using becker and I am about to finish F8. I work full time and have been studying about 2-3 hours weekdays and 5+ weekend, taking fridays off. I view the lectures, review/study materials, and then do the MCQs and TBS. I average around 70-80% on MCQs and on SIMS I usually do fairly well but get tripped up on some of the finer details. I have 2 weeks off over Christmas and will have about 5 weeks for review. Im on a tight budget and am trying to avoid buying more questions so I have been saving optional questions for review. I have also been trying to hold of on doing multiple simulations if more than one is available for the chapter. My review plan is to review/study each chapter in the book and repeat all questions and TBS, while taking notice of weaker areas. About a week out I will do a practice exam and then save the second one for a few days prior and cram hard. Im feeling in the dark and unsure about my plan.
Let me know if I should switch things up and/or ramp up the study efforts.
Much appreciated!
