I decided to take FAR as my 1st exam because its the
hardest. I can have unlimited time to prepare for it. I
feel I am a slow-learner..so i wouldnt finish the other 3
parts in weeks...I would still take some time to study
for them. If I had passed all of the 3 tests and
then..taken FAR, i would have very limited time to study
and pass the exam.
But, I am still wondering what I should do to pass it
successfully the 1st time.

CPA1988 - thanks for your response. But I need serious
help. Can you please look below? Thanks.
I have questions who already took FAR in 2011. I am using
Becker and reviewing ch. 3 (consolidations). I know how
to calculate goodwill using the BIG IN CAR method.
But they have other specific topics such FULL and PARTIAL
goodwill method. Should i worry about that? Its sooo
specifc that I think I should not worry about. what do
you think? Were they on your exam? please let me know
asap. Taking FAR next friday. Thanks.

I'm taking it on 4/15 - freaking out. I'm so tired and sick of studying. This
is my first exam/part and my hardest, but I figure if I can pass this, then I'll
do fine on the rest.
My goal is to focus on the modules in Becker that I'm the weakest (gov't,
bonds) and let the rest go. I've done the first five modules in Becker but
don't think I'll have time to finish. I probably won't do a full exam because I
think I get more from the MC homeworks where you get the answer right
away.
I do hope to have enough time to go back through the questions I marked
and take some final review notes. UGH!!!
