    FAR is my last test before I’m done, and I don’t feel half as prepared as I did for the others. If I don’t pass now I’ll have to take it with the new format, and honestly I’m so beat down mentally I can’t even imagine having to take it/study for it again, and then have to wait months for a score! I got through all of the Becker lectures but can’t remember 70% of the material I learned because there’s just so much! I’m really struggling with remembering all of the rules/requirements of fund fin stmts, govt wide fin stmts, NfP, etc. Never mind all of the GAAP vs IFRS vs GOVTVS NfP requirements. There’s just so much!!!! I guess I don’t really have a question other than how has anyone actually passed this section???

    lol..I feel you 100%. I am in the EXACT same boat as you. I have been studying for this section for so long i can remember. But there's just TOOOOO much material…

    I have been doing progress tests constantly to keep my mind fresh..trying not to forget the earlier chapters. I have just finished all 10 chapters now and exam is on 3/10.

    Not sure what to expect seriously.. Progress tests scores have been okay in the 80's but the first practice final didn't come out so great..(you can see from my post)..

    idk man……this is my last one toooooo…CANT WAIT TO BE DONE!!

    I pretty am too but am taking my time understanding the concepts and going through the MCQ as I learn. To think that FAR exam will be coming in less than 3 weeks scares the s*** out of me but I am hoping it is my last exam ever. Just got to keep putting in hours upon hours drilling topics in my head so on exam day I can shine like a star and then get my life back.

    Don't give up, you can do this! FAR is my last exam too, so there is great incentive to put in quality time every day for the next 17 days. Motivation isn't a problem but I am starting to fatigue, but I'd rather be tired and done than facing another testing window. I hope all of our efforts pay off in Q1.

    @mecrushya I have the almost exact same scores as you. We can definitely do this just got to get sleep eat well exercise and keep my healthy. FAR is definitely the last quarter of a marathon (I've never ran a marathon) but I it feels like I have with the amount of studying it takes to get through these exams.
