Hello everyone.

I am sitting on Tuesday for FAR and am wrapping up my final review today of Non profit and governmental and doing some practice exams in Wiley disc.

What should I do tomorrow? Study more? Relax? I keep going back and forth between overwhelmed and confident... and my exams are right at 80%.

Any suggestions would be great!

Thank you.

My approach which has worked for me is that I give myself a deadline. I tell myself that the day before the exam, I will study until 5:00pm. Just brush off some last minute concepts. At 5:00pm, my laptop closes down for the day. I give my eyes and my brain some rest, don't think about the exam at all, and go to bed early. Exam day, have a light breakfast, but not too much liquid - you don't want to keep taking bathroom breaks during the exam. So tomorrow, take it easy. Don't stress out. And best of luck to you!

I've actually heard it's beneficial to do some last minute cramming to really nail those concepts into your brain one last time before the exam. Personally I'd review some of the most difficult topics for you in the morning before the exam, and just skim through your notes/highlights for other areas the day before. I haven't taken the CPA exam yet, but worked well in college for me.

Good luck!

Hi, my exam is tomorrow. I redid 2 Becker final exams today, was going to study some more but my brain I think is exhausted at this point, need some rest. Will do some MCQ tomorrow morning, my exam is 15:30 so I will have time for last hour cramming .. Can't wait to get over with this exam! Good luck to you
