I feel pretty much the same about REG as I did about FAR leaving it yesterday, so hopefully I get the same result.  We'll see...  Def a few questions I had NO idea about.  One part of each sim I had no idea about either - def a few things Yaeger did not talk about at all.  But that's to be expected - every review course can't cover everything in a reasonable amount of time.

And if they did there is a chance we'd forget it.  :)

ok, so just got home from taking REG.  It ended up not being what I expected.  There was so much information I spent lots of time studying not on there at all.  For those of you using Yaeger, there was a lot of material on the exam not covered at all, so go through the entire Wiley book.  I ran out of time on the second simulation.  Both of the simulations were time consuming and not straightforward.  Not feeling real good about this one.

No one feels very confident after these exams. 

REG is very, very tight on time.  You do not have time to go the bathroom.  The first thing that I do at the exam is turn my scratch paper upside down and write down my budgeted time for each section and a blank space for my actual time.  If I get ahead of schedule, I earn a bathroom break!

Perfection is the enemy of good enough.  The purpose of any review program is to get you a passing grade.  Dr. Gleim would say that if you made above a 75, you studied too much.  However, I do not know how much studying is enough.  Additionally, even if you do know the material, you can still mess up because of trick questions.

Put REG behind you.  You did your job.  Now it is time for the examiners to do their job.
