Scores were released 2 days ago and I can’t bring myself to check my FAR score 😭 I just know I didn’t pass again. Need words of encouragement to continue studying after failing so many times. How did everyone else do?

Check and if you did not pass change up how you studied. If you’re using Becker supplement with ninja. Practice ninja questions over and over again with Becker questions. I notice a lot of people fail because they’re not practicing the questions to ad nauseum. It’s shocking how similar the questions are in the practice to the actual. If you just keep redoing the questions to the point where you know the questions by heart, you’ll pass. Good luck

Don’t give up bro. I have never taken the exam but I am looking forward to it. Which state are you trying to get your Liscence from and what is your advice?

You aren't alone. I haven't checked either and know 2 others who also haven't. All of us took FAR.

You don't need to have a masters but there are credit requirements and majority of people need a masters to meet that. I didn't because I was able to take a few grad courses as an undergrad to meet the requirements
