for those of you who did the last-minute cramming of FA before the exam, about how long did it take to go through it? i'd like to get through it a few times, and i'm wondering how many days i should allow for that.

I'd give it 3 days.

Yup, I agree. If you've annotated the life out of that book, though, allow more.

don't read stuff you already know. scan the pages and read only stuff you've forgotten. you could plow through FA a lot of times by this method. This is all I did the last few days before my exam.

I gave myself 6 days to go through FA a 2nd time thoroughly while looking up other review texts when I was unclear on a concept presented in FA

Then another 3 days to go through FA whilst skimming the items I already knew and using Google/Wikipedia to fill in the gaps that I was still unclear on
