    This was my process with Becker:
    Review the book or watch the lecture for each section. Do 5-10 MCQ for that section depending on how much material it is. Did the Skillbuilder exercises for a few of the sections if I had trouble understanding. Go through all sections as quickly as possible, not worrying about absolute mastery of the content at this point
    Get to the end of the course and start using Ninja, taking 30 question MCQ blocks FROM THE ENTIRE BODY OF KNOWLEDGE, not specific sections.
    Built up 200+ questions, then ran the reports to see which areas in particular I was struggling in.
    Go back to Becker and study more/watch lectures/do MCQ in those specific areas.
    Watched SkillMaster videos where a Becker instuctor walks you through all the Sims in their test bank (this is a huge plus if you struggle with Sims)

    Saved the last couple of weeks for MCQ, and continued review of weak areas. Read the answers for questions I got wrong.

    ***FAR specifically: I found Becker (and several other courses) to be very poor with Gov't/NFP, which take up a lot of the content on the exam. I supplemented with the Bob Monnette Bisk videos in Ninja, as well as Farhat's Accounting lectures on Youtube. They both do a much better job explaining Gov't/NFP than any of the courses, period.

    Mainly, and I say this all the time, find out very specifically which areas you are struggling in and focus on those. Don't waste your time studying things you already know.

    AUD - 95
    BEC - 87
    FAR - 84
    REG - 90
    You're killing me Smalls
