    “Materiality results in a decrease in substantive procedures, not an increase. “

    Does this make sense?

    Kate, you just got a 93 on the hardest part of this exam (lowest passing rate), you will do great on this journey. I did the first Becker final and got 83/90/87 on the 3 testlet,but now Im doing the second final and is kicking my a$$ 73/70/pending . Im happy if I get a 77 on the real exam.

    I am with you Martin. This section has me freaking out. The material doesn't seem all that tough but the pass rates and what people are posting about how they did for the 2/24 score release has me worried. I am praying that I get a test that suites my strengths enough so I can pull off a 75.

    I dont even want to read people's experiences anymore although now everything makes sense when it come to people Like kate who though they failed,but in reality the passed with flying colors. Since Audit is an exam that you could have 2 possible or even 3 possible answers in each question, a student who is not that prepared might come out thinking that the exam was very easy and they passed without a problem. This happens because since they have not practiced enough, they see a possible answer and their memory tells them they have seen that before, and boom, they think they got it. On the other hand, people that have been studying like crazy come out of the exam thinking they failed because they know there were 2 or 3 possible answers and they dont know if they picked the right one. This only happens in Audit and this the reason why the passing rate sucks specially this window. Like I said before, the more I practice the less positive I feel, so im happy with a 77, and I hope I get a FAR simulation.

    ARCPA2B, how did you do with the second final mc only?

    CTM, how about you?

    I was so happy with my 83/90/87 from the first exam, but the second final killed me 73/70/73. I just hope the real exam is not as tricky. I missed a lot of questions on Gov auditing on the last testlet, I need to read that tonight.

    That second final is brutal. I only did the first testlet and got a 67 (missed 10 out of 30!). Two were just plain dumb mistakes where I didn't read the question right. I'll blame that on being exhausted since I woke up at 2:00 am last night and couldn't go back to sleep for a couple hours (ended up doing multiple choice questions on my phone). I need to focus some more on gov't as well. Hopefully I don't get too much of that on my exam.

    Are you going over IT auditing? I completely skipped that part since is only 3% of Roger's review course. BEC covers more than 3% of IT,so I hope we dont get as many questions in Audit. According to the Becker vs Actual exam thread, you are good to go with a 65,so we will see in two days.

    I went over IT pretty well in A6 but some of the IT control questions are a little tricky.

    @Martin – I took the second final exam this morning while watching the news, my results were:

    Testlet 1: 73

    Testlet 2: 80

    Testlet 3: 90

    Sims: 82%

    I'm hoping I just wasn't awake yet for the 1st testlet haha. I'm going to eat a snack and review now. The rest of the day I will be relaxing and just reviewing weak areas, test tomorrow morning at 8AM!

    Thanks CTM, you never know what you're going to get on these exams so I think luck is definitely a factor, haha. I'm just going to show up with confidence in the morning and give it my best shot.

    Good luck to you too!
