After studying all the material it always seems like I've lost a lot since I first reviewed it.Do any of you guys have a strategy on how to review while continuing to study? I am looking for ways to try and keep the material fresh.

I personally tend to wait and do a large review after I've gone through all the information, however, I don't think that works since I haven't passed a part yet. Since I've been on this forum I've seen many people who have been successful say that they will cover a portion of the material, whether it be a couple of sections within a chapter or a few chapters but then go back and work additional MC questions related to the previously covered information. I'm sure that does a better job at keeping the material fresh. I hope this helps.

zooyuka - I used Becker and my approach was to take notes on each Chapter. As I continued through the Chapters, I would read over my notes from previous chapters every day or two. That way I kept the information fresh in my mind. Also, I used Becker flashcards which helped keep things fresh as well. I carried them with me and anytime I had a free moment I would pull them out and review a few.
If you are studying for FAR, I definitely recommend doing progress tests after every 2nd or 3rd Chapter. There is just so much material in FAR that I feel this is important to do.
During my final review, I also used Jeff's Notes to reinforce what I had learned. It was quite helpful to have an additional set of notes - sometimes things were stated differently than the way I looked at it and it really helped. He also stressed things that he found to be most important. A good investment in my opinion!
Best of luck to you on your exams.
