Help!! I'm testing for REG next week and I'm having such a hard time keeping up my energy to finish studying, I'm a bit over halfway reading the material and have the next week off work to study. What suggestions do you have to keep up energy to get through the rest of the material and be prepared so I can pass??
(It's my first exam!)

I found it helpful to leave the house and go to the library. Less distractions. Silenced my phone but set an alarm to allow myself 5 min break for each hour of study. Breaks kept me motivated. Oh and breaking freaking done. Think about the freedom you’ll have once all are done!!!! 🥳🥳

Studying for FAR and it gives me so much anxiety. There’s just so much information. I’m taking notes and reading. I don’t plan on listening to the lectures but I feel like I’m moving so slow. Advice?

Haven’t practiced a single Sim for REG and test in 4 days...am I screwed?

Used Gliem for Reg and Roger for BEC and Aud. Really liked Roger though but heard its not good enough for Far.
Please recommend any good review course for FAR
