Thanks.

So I'm taking FAR on Monday and pretty much doing a 3 day cram…I know, I know, not the brightest idea, but I know of a couple people who have pulled it off. I'm basically just reading the chapters and doing MC over and over and over…. I had to scrap the lectures due to time… anyone out there ever passed this exam in cramming?? If so, any last minute words of advice!!! Thanks in advance for any help!!

Has anyone used Bisk CPA review? If so, do you think it prepared you for the exams?

I agree with Loch_Ness comments. especially about government and not for profit. Since it is remote that you will get a simulation on the subject the whole percentage between the two subjects total 18-24%. Doing the math that would equate to approx. 1 of 5 multiple choice questions relate to one of those subjects.

I used Becker and passed FAR with an 80 this past window. It is a beast I studied approx a total of 180-200 hours over approx 10 weeks doing the multiple choice questions and listening to the all the lectures again.

So I just got out of FAR a couple hours ago, and yeah – it was just like everyone said it was going to be – brutal! Easy first testlet, second testlet from hell, easier third testlet. Had the multiple-topic sim, which was really not fun. Had a communication where the topic literally was covered in the Wiley book in 1 sentence (and very briefly by Cindy), and I had to find a way to write a paragraph about it. Not fun at all. Journal entries like crazy! Whew… Guess we'll see in three weeks…

SO, I took AUD today in 1.5 hours. It felt like the easiest exam in the world, but that was probably because I studied as if it was the hardest since I wanted this to be my last exam. September 21st seems very far away……Good luck everybody.
