I test later this month for Audit. I just took a practice test from CPA Excel and received a 73.
Total Time 2 Hours 55 Minutes

My MCQ testlets I got a 72%/72%/74%

The simulation testlets I got an 80% on the first one then a 67% on the next one, which I think is total B.S. because the correct simulation answer was AU-C 315.15 and I answered AU-C 315.A50, so I got the entire question wrong. I thought the research question was graded into those three sections? And that took off 33 percent for that entire testlet for that one minuscule mistake. I didn’t know the research question was either 100 percent correct or 0 percent correct.

(I also know those five numbers average out to 73 so I’m not sure if 73 is my actual score or just my percentage of questions answered correctly).

My problem is, I know that CPA Excel simulations are alot easier than the actual CPA Exam, and i’m sure the mcqs are easier on CPAExcel too. I know this because when I tested for FAR, the simulations were way easier during my review course and were way harder during my actual exam.

Has anyone taken Wiley CPAExcel practice tests and felt this way? Does anyone have any advice for my final week of studying? I’m also using Ninja MCQs as a supplement.

I would say if your review course offers a breakdown of which topics you did poorly on-go back and review those and do more MCQs on those concepts. There is no point in trying to figure out what is easier or harder, all you can do is prepare as best as you can.

I know about Ninja MCQ , if you got 73 in Ninja that means you are pass.Not sure about CPA Excel but I believe anything above 70 means you know the subject and all require is good time management in exam.All the best,73 in mock test is good.

@WannaFree I'd want to do a practice test for Ninja but I've seen all the questions, so i'm sure whatever score I would get wouldn't be too accurate.
