I’m 99% sure I didn’t pass FAR (again). I scheduled AUD and BEC in October and November assuming I’d pass FAR this time. I’m now thinking it would be a better idea to re-apply to the California Board and sign up for FAR , take that early October while I have it fresh in my head. I can just reschedule the other two otherwise I would have to reapply for FAR and not take it until after January. Can you have two Notices to Sit? My AUD and BEC tests were paid for with the FAR test so I want to make sure that the new application wont affect those two tests.

AUD- 86 (10/2014)-passed
BEC- 84 (11/2014)-passed
FAR - 72 (04/2014), 71(08/2014), 88 (2/2015) passed
REG- 70 (5/2015) , scheduled 8/24/2015

As far as I know, you can have two notices to sit at the same time for different exams (say BEC and REG), but not two for the same exam (FAR and FAR). You can't know for sure if you passed or not until you get your score, so there's still hope!

I think your plan to stick with one exam until you pass it is a good idea. The material stays fresh in your mind.

I went between two exams to make sure I kept studying for one while I waited on my score for the other, but I didn't move on to another section until I knew I passed one of the two. For example, I would sit for FAR, and then study AUD while waiting on a FAR score. If I failed FAR, I would go ahead and sit for AUD, but immediately jump back in and re-schedule for FAR. If I passed the FAR re-take, then I would move on to BEC while waiting for the AUD score.

You should move onto AUD (don't change that exam date) and should you have failed FAR, then go back to that exam as 10key suggests.

@10Key – How did you go from a 69 in AUD to a 95? Do you mind sharing what you did differently?

FAR - 86 7/2014
AUD - 95 10/2014
REG - 87 1/22/15
BEC - 84 7/2015
