I expected FAR to be toughest then Audit, Reg and BEC

the Toughest based on passing all 4 were Audit and then BEC, FAR, and REG all tie for the easiest.

Which one is more difficult and requires the most study time, REG or FAR?

I wasn't sure where to post this so I posted it here and in the FAR folder too.

Thanks!

Any other responses would be appreciated and would help me plan my schedule. To those who have taken REG and FAR, which one is harder?

Thanks!

I would say FARE. It is the core of accountancy and there is just too much material to cover..... and the exam was HARD!! I had to use other supplemental materials like accounting textbooks in addition to Becker materials to keep the concept in mind and be able to tackle the questions better. I studied like crazy for over three months and I was not confident enough when I sat for the exam. I am preparing for REG now and it is nothing like FARE.
