For the last window I switched from Becker to Yaeger. I spent way too much time learning from the text rather than doing the multiple choice questions. So I'm changing up the plan of attack. It's multiple choice time... going to try and do all the questions three times.

In retrospect, I don't even know why I switched off Becker when I was getting good results with it. Nothing against Yaeger/Wiley, it's great -- I think I've just been programmed to do things the Becker way.

I use the Becker book and the Wiley book when I am typing my notes for Yaeger's lectures. 

Stop Yaeger's DVD when he comes to a multiple choice question, answer the question, listen to Yaeger's answer as to why the answer is right and why the other answers are wrong, then take notes.  You are not going to get the full benefit out of Yaeger if you do not take notes. 

Yaeger's strength is going over hundreds of multiple choice questions from the Wiley book.

I'm taking the FAR exam on April 18, using Becker + Becker Final review and Yaeger to supplement my weaker areas.

Good luck to everyone!

I am taking FAR on April 23.  This doesn't seem easy, but have to hang in there and take the ride down the slope.  I am waiting for my REG score to be released.  I'd be nice to know what my score is (pass or fail), so I can move on to just focusing on FAR.  Good luck to all of you!

Today i got my diagnostic report.
My overall performance in MCQ is stronger (presentation 27%-33% - weaker ,stronger in all the other areas)
Simulation and communication weaker .(i know i didn't do well in one simulation and one communication .i left it blank because i didn't have enough time for simulation)
Can any one tell me which one i need to concentrate more and how many days i need to spend for this subject .
Apart from FAR i have to take AUD .
