So as I’m studying for FAR (with Becker), I’ve been getting pretty overwhelmed doing MCQ and Sims solely due to the fact that there’s so much information and so many numbers in a question. I find myself zoning out looking at a big block of text and numbers.

What’s a good strategy to be able to filter through the information and organize it in my head? I know step 1 would be reading the question first, then the information. What else could I do to help sift through these big problems?

If only the test was on paper, I feel it’d be easier to circle/underline things in the question and be able to organize the info better..

BEC- 81

AUD- 82

REG- 75

FAR- 81

Reading the question first definitely helps you weed out some of the useless info they might try and trick you with. One thing I used to do was use my mouse to highlight any part of the question I felt was important. Good luck with FAR. You're almost at the finish line!

Read the very last sentence in the question first and then go back through the question so that you first know what it is they are wanting from you.

BEC - 83 x1
FAR - 87 x1
AUD - 71 | 82 x2
REG - 93 x1

What the others said. Jump straight to the call of the question.

You may want to glance at the answers for 1 or 2 secs to get a feel for what you may be asked ($$$, %, term definition, threshold nightmare, logic sundae, etc.)
