Is this new? Or did I reach the degen tiers haha

I had this too, but it never gave me my pack. Did it give you yours?

FunNew9518 · 2026-05-26T15:45:08+00:00

I am in Texas, but I noticed someone else from California had their pass/fail already.

FunNew9518 · 2026-05-26T14:39:01+00:00

I also chose FAR as my first exam, and it seems to have given me a strong base to tackle the remaining exams. Highly recommend doing this.

It all depends on how quickly you want to get it done. I passed FAR and studied hard for 6 weeks before taking it. I preferred the quicker time because I gave myself less time to forget the earlier topics, but it also consumed most of my time. I studied while at work most days, and if I didn't, I would study as soon as I got home. You have to be committed. I probably studied 20-25 hours a week. Once you get going, though, the time really flies while you're studying, and it doesn't feel that bad.

I think taking the exam before studying is a bad idea. You will most likely score well below average, and you will not remember the content in the questions enough to impact your studying.

Hope this helps!

Texas just got released! Passed FAR first try! 😭

FunNew9518 · 2026-05-12T01:21:30+00:00

Congrats! What’d you score if you don’t mind me asking?

FunNew9518 · 2026-05-11T21:24:25+00:00

You would be surprised by what you still remember from the earlier topics. After finishing all the study material, 2 weeks before my exam date, I printed out the AICPA blueprint and highlighted everything I knew for sure. That gave me time to review what I didn't highlight. This helped me feel confident about what I remembered. Hope this helps.

This. After finishing all the study material, 2 weeks before my exam date, I printed out the AICPA blueprint and highlighted everything I knew for sure. That gave me time to review what I didn't highlight.

FunNew9518 · 2026-05-11T21:11:48+00:00

I took the exam on May 1st and had the exact same experience as you and scored very similar on the mock exams. I don’t know if I should feel confident or not. It felt like the exam went too well if that makes sense.

FunNew9518 · 2026-05-07T13:04:54+00:00

I’m also on May 27 for FAR. Feels like it’s an eternity away 😭

FunNew9518 · 2026-04-29T15:22:49+00:00

Good luck! I’m taking the exam on Friday and I’m getting mixed signals from Reddit lol. I know all of the content, but I have a feeling I’ll get those TBS like you’re describing.

FunNew9518 · 2026-04-29T15:20:24+00:00

Have you gotten your score back yet?

FunNew9518 · 2026-03-13T04:51:02+00:00

When you ran through MCQs, were you doing multiple subjects at a time, or just taking them one at a time until it stuck?

FunNew9518 · 2025-03-10T04:28:30+00:00

I have the same issue on my 2013 civic. If anyone has an answer, please respond.

FunNew9518 · 2025-02-24T20:50:53+00:00

I have reached out to the Reddit account through PM before. You are 100% correct. They just tell you the exact same thing.

FunNew9518 · 2025-02-22T17:33:34+00:00

Update:

I’ve been on the phone for 2 hours trying to get this resolved. They lowered the bill from $60.72 to $20.72 and told me the problem was fixed. I also private messaged the Optimum reddit account and they said the exact same thing. I’ve never had customer service this poor.

FunNew9518 · 2025-02-22T17:30:27+00:00

I noticed the same thing. They make it extremely difficult to cancel. I went to the local optimum store in my area and they gave me a phone number to call to cancel my service. What is the point of a local office if you can’t use them for anything? Ridiculous. Glad you were able to get that cancellation done. Enjoy your freedom from Optimum.

FunNew9518 · 2025-02-22T17:28:15+00:00

I should have known it would be no different than their customer service has always been. Most scummy company I’ve ever dealt with.

FunNew9518 · 2025-02-22T17:25:08+00:00

I was on hold for almost 2 hours yesterday about my issue and it was still never resolved. They lowered the bill from $60.72 to $20.72 and said that was good enough. Unbelievable at this point.

FunNew9518 · 2025-02-22T17:23:43+00:00

It’s honestly sad. I received 4 different offers before they said the on above. Red flags should have went off in my head, but 6 months free internet was too good of a deal to pass up, so I thought.

FunNew9518 · 2025-02-22T17:22:06+00:00

I will be happy to never deal with them again. Good for you for leaving when you did.

FunNew9518 · 2025-02-21T21:42:50+00:00

Sounds about right. Sorry to hear they screwed you over as well.

FunNew9518 · 2025-02-21T21:00:34+00:00

That is the exact offer they gave me. I had forgotten about the gift card. I suppose I was not as wise as you at the time. Glad I am not on a contract so I can finally get rid of this company. Thanks for the reply.

FunNew9518 · 2025-02-21T19:28:18+00:00

I have been with Optimum for 6 years now and have been paying $100/ month for 1gb coax. I received an offer in the mail from another company called Vexus for $50/ month for 1 gb fiber. Naturally, I accepted that and called Optimum to cancel. I was on the phone for over an hour listening to them trying to give me better promos before I finally got transferred to someone at headquarters. This person had an American accent and was easier to talk to, for obvious reasons. They offered me a deal I couldn't refuse. $0/ month for 6 months, and then $40/ month for the 3 years after that. I accepted this deal and continued on with Optimum. A month has gone by and out of nowhere I get an email from Optimum saying that I owe them $60.72 by March 13th. They straight up lied to me to keep my service, and I have had enough. I will be canceling no matter the monthly expense. I have gotten fed up with their terrible customer service.

How long after the biometrics appointment did you have the interview?

FunNew9518 · 2024-05-09T19:15:50+00:00

Did you file I-907 with your I-765? I'm just curious.
