    I am on my last exam, FAR, and was wondering how helpful the authoritative Literature was for past test takers? I thought that on AUD it helped and on REG it helped but than also hurt because I was second guessing my answers.

    I don't remember using it for FAR, but def used it for REG and AUD. I wouldn't anticipate using it or spending too much time trying to find stuff with it. If you know the concepts and how to apply them that will be more important since it is the application that becomes tricky especially for the new rev rec rules.

    Can help, but also drain time.
    I remember trying to look up one particular area and I went down the rabbit hole, never did find the exact answer I wanted, and wasted maybe 5 or 10 minutes.
    Hard to say exactly how long. Best to try and just answer each question to the best of your ability, or give yourself a search time limit, then answer and move on.

    Not as good as REG/AUD. Unless a sim requires you to use it. Probably not worth the time to search unless you have time and are not sure of the answer.

    AUD - 82
    BEC - 80
    FAR - 81
    REG - 82
    FAR - 74 first attempt
