Need some advice please!
Rundown: I am working on round 2 with FAR, which is my last exam. I made a 72 on round 1 in July after studying for 3 months, while working Full time. My first exam (REG) will expire 2/4/17, so I’m feeling the extreme heat to pass FAR on my next go-round in October. I THINK I might still be able to take it early January and squeak by but I don’t even want it to get to that point! I am studying full-time 7 days a week and since I started studying for the retake (about 2 weeks) I usually start studying anywhere between 8:30-9:30 am and stop studying between 8:30-9:30pm(stopping an hour or two earlier on Friday/Saturday). I’m studying pretty consistently during that time frame, with the exception of stopping to get my meals/snacks/coffee/water/occasional social media fix. By the end of the day I can feel the diminishing returns but I feel like I should be putting in more….
Am I doing a good thing by stepping away at a decent time and recharging a little bit for the next day? I am just afraid of getting to exam day and falling flat on my face again and thinking “you should have studied til at least midnight instead of stopping at 8:30-9:00 every day you moron!”
Appreciate you all taking the time to read that and respond!
