I struggle most with the financial management section in each of my exams. I always do stronger in the Written Communications part. Even if you are not sure of your responses just make sure that you structure your communication the correct way and as golfball said – know your grammar.

I remember one of the written sims was a FAR topic that I had no clue about, so I just wrote a well written and grammatically correct memo. It was all BS and completely bogus but it worked

@silliepanda Im in!!! My test is on the 31st and I am planning to go at it 12hrs each day Sat and Sun and 6-8hrs on Monday.

I'm in. I plan to hit it super hard since Monday is a holiday. Hoping to do 500 questions a day but we will see. I'm studying AUD so they tend to go a bit faster than the others.

[Anonymous]

I'm studying for FAR on the 30th, took Tuesday off for a longer weekend to study, just waiting for our “have a great long weekend” early release!

@cmertes

I also take FAR on the 30th. I took off Thursday and Friday of next week to get in a few study days before testing. Unfortunately I am going camping with my in laws and husband this weekend (perfect timing), but I do plan on taking my notes and offline study materials with me. What's your current strategy?

[silliepanda]

@@wannabe which section are you studying for

@do over I am taking aud on the 30th!! Feel better that you said some of he questions go faster…I was worried I was doing something wrong

@delilahdirt – On Monday I completed NINJA MCQs and hit the review stage. I ordered Roger CRAM and had it over the weekend before I started the last section of NINJA MCQs, Not-for-Profit. I dediced since I had it to watch the Not-for-Profit section in Roger CRAM before attacking the MCQs. I can definitely see the difference from when I was just doing the MCQs cold with my now expired Becker book. Right now, my strategy is to re-write the notes I took on MCQs, section by section, I have the first section re-written, went through what I thought corresponded in Roger CRAM and then hit the NINJA MCQs. I have done about half of section 1 and plan/hope to finish the other half of section 1 tonight and start re-writing section 2 tonight, finish tomorrow morning and go through Roger CRAM that corresponds with NINJA MCQs section 2… etc., etc., etc.

I also took advantage of Jeff's un-sale, replied to his e-mail and asked him to look at my ninja stats and provide a suggestion for my review 🙂 <– May change based on what he says.

Good luck with the camping trip. It is no fun studying while on vacation.

I’m taking BEC on Thursday, the 28th. Trending on Ninja at 70 right now. Ugh. I was up to 78, and as of today have plummeted. WT HECK HAPPENED? Everybody who’s suffering at the computer while it’s gorgeous outside, I SALUTE YOU!

REG 70, 80 (with NINJA help, up 10 pts! Woot!)
BEC 78 (NINJA ROCKS!)
AUD 78 (NINJA WOOT!)

[golfball7773]

Probably because NINJA is throwing you your problem areas which means you are not scoring as high. It is a good thing 🙂

@golfball7773 I totally hope you're right because it's starting to depress/scare/freak me out.

I am trending 55 right now and I have AUD next SAT

But that is how NINJA works in the adaptive phase. You are getting questions that you aren't as good at

Okay, deep breath then. Back into the breach! BRAVE ON, NINJAS!
