I agree with amu7, you need to study it all.  The frusterating part: after your exam you realize that you were tested on barely any of the stuff you just studied!

I totally agree with the last part. It is frustrating to see the stuff that shows up on the exam.

Damn!....I guess luck does play a heavy role in this whole
testing process!

It really does, but at the same time, if you study everything (or most) then you should be alright.  I studied a ton, and still felt somewhat uneasy, and am unsure how it will turn out.  I might be a master with bonds, and not so great with government accounting.  If one of my simulations turns out to be on government accounting, well then that could make or break it.  There are many factors that play a role.  Oh how I miss the (simple) days of college where I would calculate my approximate grade on the test before I handed it in.

I was just wondering if you could clearly guess the pretest questions. In my earlier sections there were some questions about which I could say that these are 99% pretest questions. But in FAR there was no way I could even guess this could be pretest.
