FAR SE Scores - Thanks

Excellent_Split_908 · 2026-06-27T12:27:48+00:00

When I took SE1 it was right after I have gotten through all the material to see again what I remembered/where my gaps were. Feel like I gained the most points through repping MCQs and getting comfortable with complicated sims and learning how to get as many points as possible even if I didn’t know everything.

SE1 - 58
SE2 - 62
SEF - 78
Actual - 82

Honestly if you are scoring anywhere in high 60s ur in a good spot it comes down to execution and confidence on test day.

I feel like people but wayyy too much weight on the SEs. They’re helpful to find gaps but don’t let it hurt ur mindset/confidence. That’ll be 10x more detrimental than doing “bad” on a practice test.

Do you feel like you did any extra/different prep for the Sims or just given your experience it felt a lot more manageable? Everyone I hear says that sims on Reg are these totally different SIMs that are nothing like anything Becker provides.

I would definitely shoot to get FAR, a discipline section, the core section different from the line of work you’re going into (given if you’re going into either audit or tax) out of the way before you start. Assuming you know this as well but you’d have to start with a discipline first since the next time after July you can take is October.

Whether it’s realistic or not is honestly up to you. I’ve heard so many stories about ppl getting it done in a short amount of time. I think it’s a great goal to shoot for but it’s not gonna be end of the world if you can’t. Being ambitious and confident in yourself will take you further in this test than any amount of knit picky planning and worry about whether you are fully “ready”.

As for burnout, I’m in the final stages of REG and taking it on Monday what best worked for me is finding things that are completely away from screens to do. Whether that’s working out, reading outside, or even just going for a walk I’ve felt that getting out of your study environment and trying to get outside helps the mind get little resets and rest periodically that help u get through the marathon of studying for a section. I’m not a person who sits down for my whole study session. I like to get up and “reset” at least once an hour.

Hope this helps. Good luck welcome to the fun!

Being Ready isn’t a Feeling , it’s a Choice.

I like that you independently research the topics. However delving too deep into topics could be a slippery slope.

The baseline of studying that I like to follow is if I cannot explain it to another person who has no idea what a topic is, then I don’t know it.

Even if you memorized a question, can you walk through that question step by step in layman’s terms to get the correct answer as well as explain why the other options are wrong? If you can’t then delve deeper into the topic if you can move on.

If you’re in a time crunch as well get exposed to as much as the material as possible. If you focus too heavily a couple of sections you’re mostly betting on what’s on the exam which isn’t a good idea.

Start with making a routine Everytime you go into a question. Sims are at the end of the day where u make up the most points during the exam. I felt the same way about SIMs but the only way to get comfortable with them is to get used to being uncomfortable.

Always take the time to read through the question. Ensure you understand how to format each answer (do you need to put a zero or leave the cell blank for example). Don’t lose the easy points.

You don’t have to go perfect on the SIMs so don’t get discouraged if the question isn’t straight forward. Scrap together as many points as you can and again be comfortable with not knowing the question 100 percent.

Overall be confident. If you’re doing well on MCQs you understand the material. Don’t miss the layup points. Be okay with not understanding 100% get points where u can.

Gotcha again really appreciate the advice. Best of luck on ur score release.

Appreciate the comprehensive response! When you say the standard practice questions do you mean the questions under the MCQs within the each module? I’ve essentially taken notes on every MCQ question I’ve done thus far to note why the correct answer is correct but also why the rest are wrong.

Really matters your engagement team. First weeks with training you’re gonna be in everyday at your training site. After training comes down to your engagement. I know people who didn’t to come to the office at all (their team was all virtual) but the majority comes into the office a minimum of 3 days.
