The number of hours everyone puts in varies widely! I guess I am a slow
learner; it's still cool if I pass :).
My Becker's software is expiring soon, any recommendation on the next best
software (for MCQ & sims practice) besides Becker?
Thanks all!

You are left with just one section, why don't you try and
get an extension through "becker promise" (formerly TFCH)?

I studied around 150 hours and it's been over 8 years since I took Intermediate Accounting. I know that people learn differently and at different paces but I think over 400 hours might be overkill...
