REG is tough. I passed the other 3 the first time, but REG I had to take twice. Just keep repeating those practice questions over and over. You can do it! You have over 2 months which is plenty of time.
When I passed REG I took it in February also. I'm not sure if this is true, but I heard that because CPA exam is scored against everyone who takes it at that time Q1 and Q2 are the best time to take it because all the tax experts are busy in their busy season and not taking exam sections. Like I said, maybe not true, but it made me feel more hopeful!
I'm sorry, it's been several years since I've taken the exam but I did fail and retake (and lost a few credits during the time). It is really the worst feeling ever, but when you get that last passing score- it's such a relief!
What review course are you using? Could you switch and use another one for this last section since you have a basic understanding of it? I don't know what's good anymore but I ended up buying Gleim and using that and the CD to do questions. Good luck!

I originally started with Wiley's book and test bank. Then I used the Roger lectures and book with the Wiley test bank. This time I used the Roger lectures, Ninja book, and Ninja test bank (this is the combo that helped me pass two other sections). I've thought about buying Becker for this section, but I don't think we can afford it right now. I am hoping that if I focus harder and get to finish my studying method, I will be able to pass. I really do feel like I just ran out of studying time this time.

I'm so sorry. I had everything crossed for you. I would honestly try and figure out how to get Becker for this section. And really if you have questions about REG or want tips on how to remember something send me a PM. Tax stuff can be so confusing and complicated seeming and hard to remember if you don't deal with it day to day.
I'm sorry. Take a day or two to relax and then ignore everything to study. Don't worry about cleaning or random things. I am in a class and bring my study books to work. I make myself take an hour lunch and read. (I used to work through lunch)

Buy Becker! Find a way do schedule an in class Becker review section. Seriously. Becker is worth it to get this behind you.
I had to do in class and treat it as a class with studying, homework, etc. to get through my exams. Besides Becker has a guarantee that you will pass or they give you the next class free if you do all the homework and attend all the classes.
It will be less expensive on your sanity and your wallet in the long run rather than paying for other study products and retaking the exam over and over.
