You studied a ton for this exam.  I am sure you will do great.  For REG, I studied only becker 1-4, I procrastinated and didn't look at 5-7.  Due to the fact that I did not look at a single MCQ on Law, when I left the testing center, I felt like I surely failed.  Then, I get a 75. 

If you do not pass, you are normal.  Most people fail at least one part once. 

I spent 8 days total studying for BEC.  I realized that it is more important when doing the MCQ's to understand why the incorrect answers are wrong and why the correct one is correct.  It helps a ton.

Good luck.  Also, I have FAR tomorrow.  Think about me before you walk into the exam, I procrastinated again, and have only gotten through chapters 1-7.  Oh well, I guess I never learn, haha.

Wow. I'm impressed by armstrong. If I studied BEC for 8 days my score would have been so low they wouldn't have even graded it. I've never heard of anyone skipping half the REG book and still passing. You may want to briefly glance over 8 & 9 of FAR. But who am I to give you advice, your tactics seem to be working.

Cabin, you have nothing to worry about. People like me will lose credit if we failed FARE this window. If you fail you can always take it again.

I do not recommend my tactics to anyone.  I think this will be the first part that I do not pass.  There is just too much material that I am not very good at.

I just want to give Cabin reassurance that if anyone will pass, it will be Cabin before me due to my lack of preparedness.

As a newbie, but long lurker, I also appreciate your advice.  Your encouraging words do help.  I also feel like sometimes I'll be fine and others there is no way I can pass.  Must all be natural feelings.  :)  Good luck on your exam.
