Anyone who passed FAR have any tips? This is my last test (Hopefully) have not heard back about regulation. I have been studying since September and I am pretty much over it. My lack of motivation and the depth of this exam seem like I am setting myself up for failure. I just want this misery to be over and I am becoming desperate. I will take and advice anyone who has taken this exam has.

MORALE IS LOW

I'm in the same boat. Passed both AUD and BEC, waiting on REG score, and taking FAR in a few weeks.

It looks like you've got decent scores on the other parts which is great.

REG and FAR are both different animals from the other parts. I am putting a lot more focus on the SIMs. They are worth 50% of your score and they are a lot more detailed and challenging in cognitive ability than the SIMs of the pre-April 2017 era.

Once I finish all the MCQ studying which will be by the middle to end of August, I am putting a lot of focus on the SIMs. At least a full week to get my hands on as many SIM practice and preparation as possible. Then I will allow myself at least one more week to do a complete and comprehensive review of my study notes and weaker areas.

I think as long as I'm very confident with the SIMs, bonds, equity, and taxes, and comfortable enough with all the other areas, everything will fall in place for the exam.

Again, I am going to be sure I don't underestimate the SIMs. It may have cost me a passing REG score, but we'll see in a few more weeks.
