@swan

Know your formulas such as free cash flow, nopat, Eva… Etc. Be sure you understand all the return calculations such irr, arr,npv, what rate to use and advantages and disadvantages of it. For IT, you will see a lot of internal control related questions. For wc, make sure you attempt all 3 questions with at least 3 paragraphs. Read the wc carefully and answer what they ask you. Thats all I can remember from my last exam. Hopefully I'm not breaking any disclosure rule with this post. Good luck

AUD - 83 Feb11
REG - 75 May11
BEC - 73 July11 84 Oct11
FAR - 63 Aug11 76 Feb12 I'M DONE!!!!!

Count me in, hoping for total 20 this weekend before FAR on wednesday. Who else is taking FAR this week?

[pacific1]

I am in for FAR on Wednesday as well!

I'm in! Been at it since 10 this morning and plan to work MCQs until we leave for round 2 of thanksgiving dinner. FAR on Monday @ 2 PM, so I'll definitely be back it tonight and all day tomorrow. I plan to complete the Yaeger MCQs tonight, do a full practice test tomorrow morning and work trouble spots/review via Wiley test back Sunday afternoon/Monday morning. I also need to round up some red panties since they are all the rage at Prometric these days!

I agree with Zizoty on BEC. Also, be sure to leave enough time to proof read the WC.

JoMarie, enjoy the weekend off! I read your FAR experience on another thread. Sounds like you nailed it! Enjoy the decorating; I was a little bummed to break tradition and not put up our tree yesterday, but hopefully it'll pay off on Dec 7!

@jomarie, You deserve to take the weekend off and enjoy the decorations, sounds like fun.

Thanks for the suggestions on BEC. I studied from 5:30 to 12 took a break to watch my team fail miserably and now I'm back at it until I can't go any more! I hope I can get at least 5 more in today!! What an awesome life we're all living right now!! It will pay off in the end I guess!!! Best of luck to everyone!

Thanks pacific1! Let's pray Wednesday is the last time I walk into Prometric! I have been working REALLY hard today. I've done over 280 mcqs and really studied the ones I missed. It will pay off….it will pay off….it will pay off!!! 🙂

On average, what's the normal amount of questions you do in a day? A really good study day???

Met my goal of studying 10 hours, actually it was more like 11 hours, did 320 FAR questions. Hope to repeat the same amount of MCH's tomorrow and do all sims at Becker.

Hope all of you had good studying session today!

Good night!

[pacific1]

I am going to shoot for 10-12 quality FAR time today, I am going to work on doing Wiley tests today, I think I will do 50 mcq's and 2 sims each test and shoot for an hour and a half for each test.

Good luck to all who are studying today….I can't wait for the 30th to come so I can move on to my next section.
