Don’t give up! Just passed FAR after taking it 3 times. Also took audit multiple times. Recommend using NINJA if you’re feeling sick of Becker.

Also try talking to your firm. I had trouble passing REG and AUD, and my manager knew about this, so they authorized a reimbursement for Wiley Gold. Wiley presented the material in a different way than Becker, and I passed those two sections on my next try!
