I think a month is fine for FAR if you have 8 hours a day to contribute like you say.

I don't think taking all 4 parts in one window is a good idea.

You will make yourself crazy and possibly perform poorly.. It is alot of material for all 4 parts.

Yet there are several people that fly in from other countries and take all 4 together to keep airfare and hotel costs to a minimum AND pass all 4 with flying colors! It can definitely be done - BUT - it will take a lot of discipline. If you have the luxury of time, do space yourself out.

Those people most likely studied well in advance for the 4 exams, not crammed a few weeks before the exam.

If you just finished your Masters, you should be able to breeze through the FAR review. Just work on the areas that you think are your weak points. The review I use has a diagnostic test to determine what areas need improvement. That way you can zero in on the sections that you need to refresh. It will save you plenty of time.

Depending the masters program you were in, FAR may be the least of your worries..

Why must you finish it in one window?
