So I’m sitting here waiting for score release tomorrow, cutting the edge with some Cabernet … Thinking about past exams, and I’ve never really understood why in the name of Walter White is the Audit exam 4 hours? Is there a reason? I mean no calculations at all …. And it’s the same time allotment as FAR? …………… Stuff I think about when I can’t sleep, and have my Cab friend over.

Licensed Florida CPA:
B: 71, 73, 79
A: 83
R: 78 (expired), 77
F: 74, 74, 80

It's finally freaking over.

I too have wondered. It should give a 1/2 hour to FAR!

What's your cab friend's name? I am more of a zin drinker but my husband likes cabs so I'll have them sometimes too. Anything you are especially liking right now? We usually try different wines in the 10-15$ range but I did buy my husband a bottle of Silver oak recently as a “good job at work” present. It was good but not worth the price tag IMO.

If you ever stay up late with Zin, I really like one called Edmeades.

Obviously it's Friday and I have vino on the brain!

REG - 65, 70, 80!
BEC - 35, 62, 79!
AUD - 73, 75!
FAR - 65, 73, 70, 75! DONE.

AUD & FAR are 4 hours because they have 90 multiple choice questions & 7 sims

BEC has 72 multiple choice, and 3 writings

REG has 72 multiple choice, and 6 sims

so both are 3 hours.

i dont think it has to do with how many calcs there are or arent, just the sheer # of questions i guess

FAR - 1/26/2012 - PASSED (78, but Lost credit), re-do 11/27/2013 - PASSED (87)!
AUD - EPIC FAIL, 71, 69; 68; 5/25/2013 - PASSED (85)!
REG - 10/1/2012 - 72; 7/1/2013 - 73 UGH, 10/1/2013 - PASSED (85)!
BEC - 2/28/2013 - PASSED (82)!

I finished the first AUD exam in about 2 hours. = 73

I finished my second AUD exam in 4 hours. = 86

I took my time the second time around and made use of the AL on the SIMs. While you can finish it early, I prefer having extra time to double/triple check my work.

REG - 89
FAR - 84
AUD - 73, 86
BEC - 89
