It's all multiple choice but I think (it's been awhile) some of then required you to pick the top 2-3 answers. Most of the questions were scenario based about picking the best option based on the info provided. I would also spend some time going over USA Patriot Act, AML 5D, and FATF rules.

Yep, there's 4 choices to pick from.

Following, just started preparing as well. Curious to hear your experience on how everyone prepared for the exam.

Thanks D1!

How would you rate your ratios for work, play, and rest?

My life's mostly been 85% work/serious stuff (includes academia), 10% rest, and 5% play.

I've only started to learn to rest more this year and learning to accept lower productivity (was part of the hustle culture).

Q: How do I learn the concept of play? Didn't have that in my childhood growing up. All serious, no fun. Has anyone transitioned successfully?

I feel like a boring, old lady 😔😒

What is your definition of play?

I was wondering if the review course “CPE Self Study Course” for the CFF was enough preparation to study and pass the CFF exam. The CFE review course was enough and like if you get a question wrong it explains it well so that when it comes up in a different way in the real exam you can still get it. But when I saw the outline for the CFF material and there seems to be a lot of topics so I was wondering if the review course was sufficient considering this exam is also multiple choice. Thanks!
