I have been a silent observer for a long time. Thanks to everyone who has spent time in contributing to this form and making it a wonderful experience. I got my score last wednesday
Exam day was ok, they let me start 20 minutes early and the prometric in nyc would not let me eat in the center, so i had to run downstairs outside to eat. people were staring at me, with a big beard, red bull and a huge sandwich, lol. make sure you have a game plan for breaks, it is imparitive that you schedule proper break time and sleep well too, it's not as bad as you think.
I did kaplan q bank 64%, UW63%, no NMBE and thelive lectures at NJMI, newark, nj in May+ FA. The advisor at the Newark center told me not to use FA as a primary source of study, so i didn't take any shortcuts and read all the books again. The center is a great place to study and the live lectures are a must. There's not nearly the concise amount of information in the videos as there are in the live lectures. I did do the new kaplan videos at the center too.
All together, I prepared for about 6 months, with videos after the live lectures for important topics. One person told me once that it is a reflection of how you did in school, so be minful of this before you begin your preperation.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask and GL
