I am taking FAR tomorrow for the first time and I am in major freakout mode...I am using Becker and Bisk hot topic. I went through becker lectures twice and did all the questions but I feel that I don't know anything...is it just nerves? I am randomly redoing MC questions and not getting the right answers. And it's making me more nervous that I feel like like I forgot everything. Did any of you experience this?

Yes, very normal.  Make sure you get a good nights rest.  Always eliminate wrong answers before choosing a right one. Many times even if you aren't sure by elimanating 3 wrong answers you get the right answer even if you don't directly know it.  Best of luck!

My exam is tomorrow also, my first part and my first experience with the cpa exam. What I have done is just review "slowly", mnemonics formulas and concepts from highlited topics and flash cards. 

I have decided NOT to do any more mcq's because it was destroying the little confidence I had. Specially the tests!!  You can spend some time with sims. they are harder but less depressing.  

... Also sleep heavy and eat light!!  

Gopod luck!

lcpa2009 you are not alone. Go out for a walk. i'm tired myself. I've been in freakout mode this whole week. try and channel your energy into something productive. read your notes. or look at the sims. that's what I'm doing.

good luck to everyone.
