I have passed 2 sections and experienced that the level
of practice i did for the real exam proved to be much
harder than actually it is.
Now this gigantic stuff....FAR is like a comet striking
the earth, specifically targeting me......
I have read the material thrice, and now when am trying
to attempt the mc's, i am having a tuff time....every qs
is taking more than 2 minutes to understand, they are too
lengthy....am i the one on this ship alone or i have
companions.
I know real exam would be much easier but i need to clear
this in order to clear the exam.
i am schedule for may 29, god knows, whether i will be
prepared for it....i am working full time with 2
kids......god bless me.

How long you have been stuyding for FAR? FAR has the most materials to cover compared to other sections. I failed once before because I wasn't well prepared. I only studied for 1 month and half and were hoping to pass it like I did for BEC. But I was wrong, you have to study well and really need to understand the financials before you go for the exam. I also have a full time job. I will retake my exam on May 26. Good luck to both you and me..

Hi torontoacc,
You are not alone! FAR is definitely overwhelming and everybody feels the same way like you. Its amazing to see how well you are able to manage your family and studies. Hats off to you for that! Just hang in there and focus on your weak areas at this point. Go over all those topics that have been troublesome for you, take the practice final exams. Don't be disheartened with the amount of time you take now. Make sure you are able to comprehend all the information that is needed. If you are able to understand most of the questions well in order to be able to answer them, you are fine! Believe me, actual exam will most likely not have lengthy questions!
All the very best for your exam.
