Phew.

FARE = done. Now the waiting begins.

The test went well (or so I think). The material was fair and there really wasn't anything out of left field. About 65% of the questions, I felt assured of the correct answer, and about 25% I felt like I made a reasonable estimate. So there were only about 10% of the questions that were straight up guesses. It wasn't even that the ones I guessed on were "hard," they were either tricky or I felt assured of an answer that wasn't an option (which I'm assuming meant I was wrong, haha).

So now I have to wait to find out if my feelings about it were correct. I'm sure hoping so, because I'll feel even worse if I feel this confident and still fail, haha.

The Becker Final Review did end up taking ALL day on Wednesday. So long...I studied, with only three half-an-hour breaks, from 7 am to 10 pm. But honestly, it was a great "conclusion" studying session. It totally ingrained all the pnemonics and just reinforced the key facts. I'd definitely recommend it. I really think that was what gave me the final confidence boost.

OK, so I'm taking the weekend off from studying to have fun in Hoboken and celebrate St. Patty's day (I know its really early). But come Monday - time to study for Regulation!!
