Partial credit on research simulation?

    I was reviewing my answers and to the best of my recollection, I believe that on my research simluations I got the paragraph wrong…..both possible paragraphs discussed (let’s just say evidence of something) but after re-consideration I decided that the other paragraph of the standard was better.

    So as an example:

    If I got that it was AU.501 correct but the paragraph should have been 45 instead of 43….would I get any credit at all for the AU501.43 answer when AU501.45 was the technically better answer?

    Anyone know?

    Thanks,

    It says some where on the AICPA website that no partial credit is given =/

    AUD 81 (X4) Previous scores 59, 72, 72
    REG 80 (X3) Previous scores 59, 60
    FAR 75 (X2) Previous score 67
    BEC 79 (X2) Previous score 58

    No partial credit for research, sadly. Its counted as one question.

    AUD: Pass
    BEC: Pass
    FAR: Pass
    REG: Pass - I'm DONE!

    I am going to be quite honest with you, I don’t care for either of your answers! 😀 Thanks for the confirmation of what I feared.

    I looked heavily into the research question and I firmly believe that I probably got it right. Both paragraphs mentioned evidence but the paragraph I chose dealt with the threshold of evidence to be obtained as well as the goals of the evidence collection—that the evidence should be sufficient to support those goals. The other paragraph was leaning more towards the analytical procedures and process of evidence collection. More of the form than the sufficiency, which is what the question was asking.

    How in the world am I going to study for BEC while waiting until 2/3 for the auditing results? I’m driving myself crazy.

    I'm right there with ya cpapending! I took AUD yesterday and the SIMS were pretty brutal and my research question for AUD was MUCH tougher than FAR hoping I got it right 😉 And studying for BEC starts Monday AHHHH… is it 2/3 yet? 😉

    We're on the same schedule AshleyCAP….took Auditing on Wednesday and will begin studying BEC on Monday AM bright and early.

    I'm testing on 2/27….I SURE HOPE that I get good news on 2/3. A failure out of the gate after all that time and dedicated study would just be brutal.
