I walked out of FAR defeated. The MCQ was tough and I gave up completely on the last sim. I didn’t study for my next exam as I was sure there was no way I passed. I found out later that I got a 90.

If you feel like you passed FAR, you probably did.

I would just relax and wait and start studying once you found out you passed and take BEC and finish right before the holiday!

I’m having a really hard time with my changing body. 13 weeks, I don’t have too many bad side effects of pregnancy or anything so I consider myself lucky (no nausea ever etc) but I’m depressed at work, my skin is completely broken out and showing new broken face capillaries, and I’m not showing a bump yet so I just feel fat and big. I don’t know where this “glow” is but I look in the mirror and literally am grappling with not recognizing myself :( it’s been impossible to find any clothes too.
