61% trending on FAR and 22 days until test? is this ok?

I took far in January. Studied with Becker all the way through and then did Ninja MCQ’s my last three weeks. I was trending 69% the day I took the test/ and you have 22 days left- I had the same setting as you in that I only worked new/trouble questions. I think you are just fine. My advice is to continue to use the Becker book in your studies – read/review/take notes from it and then do 20 MCQ’s on that subject in Ninja on your problem areas. The Becker pass keys are great in my opinion.

Im at 66% with 5 days to go so Im just plugging away and re-reading my notes / trouble questions and praying for a 75

your good, just make sure you review government and non profit, you will get MCQ on them in the exam.

I really wouldn't put too much focus on how you're trending..

ive noticed that a lot of people who trend in the 80's and higher end up bombing on the exams.

for audit, I was trending in the 50's, and got an 80 on the test…. 60's on REG and i got a 79…none of the things that I was having difficulty with showed up on the exam.

with FAR and REG, IMO nothing can prepare you for the simulations.

I have not felt sufficiently prepared for any of these exams.. just study hard and do your best.

I use Gleim primarily and Ninja to supplement

the Gleim sims for audit were quite good (didn't use any other simulation software). A few of the concepts showed up directly on my test.

the AL was helpful as well in my experience, so I made sure to become familiar with it the week leading up to the test so I could navigate easier.

I feel that a person's results from the test will depend largely on their temperament. For example, I have friends who have panicked as they began the exams, and therefore were not able to think clearly.

before I start each test, I close my eyes, take a few deep breaths, and clear my mind… this helps me to address each individual question as it comes up… keeping a clear mind helps me to remember the things that ive studied.

it's also a lot about how you manage your time during the test, and your overall strategy… for example, I rushed straight through the audit MCQ, and had 3 hours left for the simulations, because I felt they were going to be my saving grace.

everything turned out alright.

LOL goddamn, 3 hours for the sims? But yes, I am one of those who will panic if I start getting short on time or see a string of unfamiliar material. Clearing your mind and time management are key, I agree.

I'm also using Gleim and Ninja for AUD so it makes me feel better that you felt Gleim sims were sufficient!@

Lastly, overall how did you feel AUD difficulty was to FAR and REG?

it was a little over a week yeah, about 10 days or so.

I wasn't planning on passing, but I figured hell… the test is 60% multiple choice, so there's always a chance.

I kinda shake my head when people take a test in the middle of the window, and then take the rest of the window off… why not put another test at the very end and cram? give yourself a shot.. ya know?

you could very well end up lucking out like I did.
