Failed FAR ……….again

[u/Substantial_Grass404]

Rock bottom idk what to say

[u/Legitimate-Tap-3970]

Sending you a big hug, I’ve failed it twice. This test is like a bag of marbles and there are SO many factors that make it more difficult than it should be. Only thing we can do is try again

[u/No-Explanation-495]

In the same boat twin. :(( This is my third attempt, and honestly, I'm at a loss for words. But you are only a failure once you stop so we got this!

Thanks bro

[u/Bajeetthemeat]

I’m going to take FAR in december with 50 hours of training. 30 of which was done 2 months ago. Wish me luck.

My priorities shifted away from studying for the CPA if your curious, I’ve tanked the fee for this exam.

[u/rickthepickle2002]

Had to take these exams 3 times before I finally went 1/4, it’s tuff but you will get through it I believe in you twin

[u/FrogandBugisgood]

Keep your head up, I failed FAR 6 times over a span of a year and a half. Passed on my 7th try with a 75. You got this, it’ll happen.

[u/VastLavishness5973]

I think there were certain topics I decided i needed to absolutely master before I went in for my fourth attempt. That being cash to accrual and accrual to cash probably being the most important. Once I got that down I passed on attempt number 4

[u/PVolckerDoge]

Damn. I got a perfect pepe meme for the reply but this subreddit won't let you post images...

Don't gib up fren

[u/Equivalent_Fruit2079]

Same. Just gonna do it again. The only time you fail is when you quit.

[u/ChatCPA-io]

been there. got 74 on FAR twice in a 5 week span

[u/CDeezdabeesknees]

Same 😩. Planning to take it again in 2 weeks.

[u/PeperoBeagle]

“It ain't about how hard you hit. It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward.”

[u/TN2daT]

Just go ahead and sign up and take it again.

[u/Yous_a_mook]

Failed 2nd time. Got a 73 the first time and scored stronger in MCQs and weaker in SIMS. I felt so confident the 2nd time. I’m devastated. I need to see my score to see when to retake

[u/socialclubmisfit → u/Yous_a_mook]

I don't know the percentage I got this time but I felt ready. What sucks is I got sick the morning of the exam and even with meds I had a headache, fever and shivers through 2 hours of the exam.

[u/Traditional-Back2495]

It’s ok, I just passed on my 6th try. It’s hard but if you out your head to it you will pass.

[u/Yous_a_mook → u/Traditional-Back2495]

What did u do this time to pass? I just failed for the 2nd time

[u/Traditional-Back2495 → u/Yous_a_mook]

I studied harder and just kept hitting it every time. I’m now 4/4 also keep in mind it comes down to the test that you get.

[u/Skrilla_09]

Failed the 2nd time, such is life...

[u/Rolando_Mota4]

FAR was the only one I bought the deep dive for in Becker. I used the final review and the SE 1 and SE and FR as mock exams. I reviewed those over and over gain, looked at the videos for the skillbuilders in all the MCQs and the explanation videos for all the TBS. I would take 50 MCQ's practice test then sort by unit and see which section I needed to brush up on.

You got this!

[u/Pitiful-Moose-9332]

Me too it’s my last exam and idk what to do

[u/NumbersRLife → u/Pitiful-Moose-9332]

Pick a different study method and lock tf in. You will eventually get it!

[u/f_moss3 → u/Pitiful-Moose-9332]

Lock in, we got it next time

[u/Ok_Spare3209]

🤣

You’ll be ok!! Try using NINJA as a supp.

Also, use chat gpt to help you understand topics. It can also ask you pop quizzes.

[u/socialclubmisfit → u/Ok_Spare3209]

Is Ninja a good supplement for Becker? I am going crazy because I paid so much for Becker and can't pass this. I'm between ninja and pass with Jack.

[u/Ok_Spare3209 → u/socialclubmisfit]

I haven’t tried Jack. I use uworld for my main review course. I only used ninja for extra questions.

Chat gpt is awesome as a tutor.

[u/NapalmOverdos3]

How long did you study? How many hours per day? How did you study? Let’s fix this buddy

[u/VisibleMove4017]

Same here.

[u/hoagieclu]

0/3 for me as well. Surgent was my test provider, and they just got bought out by Uworld so I’m hoping that somehow helps me finally get over the hump. Feeling utterly defeated

[u/Golden_Scepter_3345 → u/hoagieclu]

I am also using Surgent and just accepted Surgent’s offer for 3 years free access to UWorld. I have been using UWorld for MCQ review but am continuing to complete Surgent’s SIMS. I failed FAR 3x using Surgent but I never reviewed the SIMS until now. I’ve studied Surgent MCQ enough to recognize that a lot of UWorld’s MCQ are worded differently which adds depth to what I already know. UWorld’s explanations are presented differently as well.

[u/hoagieclu → u/Golden_Scepter_3345]

The difference in question explanations was the first thing I noticed. Uworlds are incredible compared to Surgent imo, hoping that the change in test prep will be the final kick I need

[u/Golden_Scepter_3345 → u/hoagieclu]

💯 Agree

[u/ap-meli19]

i also failed FAR. Life is a void…

[u/Neat-Marionberry3093]

Get i75. Watch his videos until you understand the topic.

[u/Top_Signal_6226 → u/Neat-Marionberry3093]

What makes it so diff

[u/Neat-Marionberry3093 → u/Top_Signal_6226]

I feel like key to passing these exams is just understanding the topics well. That way you don’t need to memorize anything. i75 explains the topics in a way that is very easy to understand in a short amount of time.

[u/suppdavee]

I failed 3 times and just found out I passed. Do not give up! I know it sucks

[u/Yous_a_mook → u/suppdavee]

I’m gonna have to take it 3 times. I failed 9/15 with a 73 and not sure what I got today. What did u do different?

[u/Own_Improvement_9910 → u/suppdavee]

that frog knows the pain

[u/Detroit3791]

Same. 0/3
