I wasn't working at all. So I studied about 6-8 hours per
day. It would be hard if you were working. But you could
do it, especially if you're a tax person.

I see that you started over since 2009. What material did you use?

Make your own Flash cards and whiteboard. Invest in a nice size whiteboard about 25$ in staples) and as if you are teaching talk about the concepts. You will be suprised how much you think you know but you really dont know. Repeat this until you are comfortable with all the subjects. REPETITION is the key.

I used my '09 materials (MDS, one of the lesser known
companies) for FAR. For AUD, I used Wiley only, book and
CD both. For BEC, I used the Wiley book only, but
supplemented IT and Economics with my old MDS stuff. For
REG, I used my old stuff, but I wish I hadn't. REG is
actually the one I felt the worst about (short prep time,
just a generally bad test day), so if I failed REG, I'm
getting Wiley for that too.

You sound like you started studying FAR in Jan, and have just gone through
chapter 5 and 6 for the 1st time. Have you read through the book/watched
all lectures?
