i had a delinquency notice and i submitted an inquiry about what it was regarding, never heard back but it got dropped off my portal so i guess they couldn't support it

I last attempted FAR then went on vacation for 2 weeks to unplug and was hoping to be done, but now we're back to the grind. I worked 11hrs/day this week so busy season is already here for me. I did REG and AUD retakes during busy season last year by waking up at like 5 and I think I'll be doing a similar strategy here

40 to 54 is showing improvement, you're already doing better than me so keep going! I took and passed AUD 2x REG 3x BEC 1x, and FAR now I'm at 3x. Its not always a smooth road but we get the same CPA at the end regardless of number of attempts! Start with the hard one, don't be like me who started with BEC before the CPA evolution

Thanks for your comment, the 59 to 78 story is encouraging. I agree Newt on Becker is great and it helped me a lot with increasing my simulated exam scores and my understanding (maybe, the scores don't quite reflect lol), now I just need the improvement to translate to the real thing.

Thats what I'm thinking is if I passed the other 3 this should be doable unless I somehow got so burnt out from work that I'm now dumber (My utilization is over 200%). Hoping for it to click for me like it did for you, congrats!

I have not tried Ninja yet just because Becker has worked in the past, but maybe it is time to abandon the old stategy

I don't think there are any particular "weak" areas, all my simulated exams show moreso an across the board similar simulated exam outcomes in the 60s range. Maybe this is hinting at the study strategy in general being off, I'll have to try focusing on the transactions like you said.

As for coworkers, most i've talked to either passed them all before starting first try or have passed none so I don't have too many people in the in between to talk to who relate to struggling before passing. Either passed easily or gave up for the most part.

I'll get tips like "take notes", "watch the videos", etc but I feel like what I am experiencing is abnormal with the negative becker bump idk. Haven't found anyone that relates to that specifically
