So how much time are you spending studying?

Are you making notes or just going through the MC? I think my friend is just really bright. Just goes thru MC till she gets 80%, then moves on. That was good enought for her to pass. I need to actually study and memorize it I guess.

thanks.

I've made flash cards on the key points and mnemonics that they have.
I review them before I do the homework. I review the lectures before
the live classes and then sit for the class for clarification on topics I'm
not comfortable with. I spend about 3-4 hours on the weeknights on
homework and all throughout the weekend. I typically have no life but
work and studying. But I see it as a sacrifice for now.

I also try to finish all homework (MCQ's) before going into the next
section.

Thank you. I did well in the accounting classes, but this is something else. I am being very slow getting through the MC and now that I am making the notes I need to in order to remember, it is even slower. But you are making your flash cards, the same thing. So, you are going to be able to do the two classes a week, two weeks of exam prep and be ready to take the exam? I have a friend that did that whole  Becker thing and passed them all on schedule. Hopefully that will happen for you too! Thanks for sharing your plan. Let me know how it goes for you... I hope to take a mid April Audit exam. That will mean - 3 months prep! Take care, Sue
