Far in April. This is my last section. I failed Far with a 71 in Feb, so I just need a few more points!

-Describe your overall study/exam plan of attack for PASSING in Q2.

MCQ over and over and over and over….especially in the areas that I was weak in.

Becker

-What exams you're taking in April/May?

BEC in May.

I'm a newbie but I plan to listen to lectures, MULTIPLE CHOICE questions, re-writing my notes, and flash cards!

[ReneeNC]

-What study materials you're using

I am using CPAExcel, Wiley Test Bank, and for BEC, the Wiley book as well.

-What exams you're taking in April/May, and

Only taking BEC this window, but will take FAR in the next.

-Describe your overall study/exam plan of attack for PASSING in Q2.

Studying. I know that sounds simple, but you just have to put in the time. I'll do the same thing for BEC that I did for REG – take notes, make flashcards, do MCQs, take notes from the MCQ answers, then go back and re-study my weak areas. I will repeat this 5000 times until I am sick of it, and hopefully get another 89. 😉

REG - 89
BEC - 82
FAR - 87
AUD - 81
Used CPAexcel, Wiley Online Practice, and NINJA!

-Describe your overall study/exam plan of attack for PASSING in Q2.

Multiple Choice X 100 – I too often get stuck on details and analyze too far into a question. I think the multiple choice practice in the Wiley books will help me to focus on specifics without letting me analyze too much! I'm also planning to re-write my notes from my first FAR attempt.

Spending 3 hours every night getting through the Yaeger videos (2 more Yaeger videos) then do 1 month of MCQ's from the Wiley test bank. In my spare time I will be reviewing the Yaeger handout and reviewing flash cards and notes.
