ok, i didnt take the exam yet, but i'd say make sure that at the least you're comfortable with leases, FIFO/LIFO (including the affects on all the ratios), and key differences between us- and international gaap.

you still have time. If you have the videos use them. Go through the EOC CFAI
questions, put the time in and you should be fine.

Do CFAI EOC questions help us for the CFA exam?

I was in a similar situation once. I took many practice test before the exam, most of them in the last week or so. It was a gruelling experience but then the real exam felt like nothing more than "two more tests" and nothing to worry about. For now, you should start by working through the answers, question by question. Don't study any more from the textbooks but have them ready in case you need to look up some concept. Get Schweser's practice tests (6) and the extra tests (+ 6 = 12 exams @ 120Q). What would be reasonable? Try to work through 20Q every night and 2 x 120Q if you have taken the entire day off.

Which practice test do people commonly refer to?

My Schweser pack has 6 practice exams but I haven't started it yet. I am still doing CFAI and Schweser end of chapter practice questions.

I have to say i was in the same boat (40's-50's)...and really freaking out.

I got a level head and kept doing practice questions after question and i am see my scores increasing each week. I am almost to the point of not having to reference equations/notes maybe once or twice in a 60 q quiz. That was about 2 weeks ago and now I am in the 70-75 range.

I know it sounds silly but have that can do attitude and do question after question and things just fall into place.

There is enough time for sure. You can't let your head drop at this stage. I had a student once who scored less than 50% overall on her first practice test and went on to pass the test.

I am not going to lie to you- it's NOT going to be easy. But it has been done before and there's always hope. Otherwise, as Lara said, waiting 6 months is not so bad plus you'll have a better foundation for Level II.
