Hey guys,
I need some advice.. would 4 weeks be enough to study for FAR?- this will be my second time around- but I didn't do so great and I'm just overall disheartened about what went wrong. For those studying for it and those who passed it any advice on how to go about this second time around would be greatly appreciated!!
Thank you

Study as much as possible.  Try to find ways to increase your study time.  Also, take 10 minutes out of your day here and there and dedicate all of the time to a topic that you found confusing (in addition to your normal few hours a day).

My biggest piece of advice is when you are taking the test, dont get bogged down by stuff that you dont know.  Make a good guess and move to the next question.

I don't personally think it is enough time.  Unless you are taking time off from work.  Just reading the text will take a long time.

4 weeks is pushing it. I did it in about 5 and ended up not watching one of the videos and altering my study habits a bit. Still ended up working, but I wouldn't recommend it.

I dedicated 3 months studying for this because I have been out of college for almost 5 years.  I think 4 weeks is pushing it unless you are studying 10 hours a day.
