I have my audit exam this afternoon and have been working on some 20 MCQs and 2 Sim practice tests and it’s not looking good. I’ve scored 39 and 50….AAAHHHHHHH. How can this be when over the weekend I was scoring anywhere from 70 to 88????? I’m hoping it’s just nerves. I’m planning on leaving the house in about an hour then start to head to the exam site. I should get there with an hour to spare to look over the NINJA notes and my flash cards. All I want, like all of us, is a 75!!!!

Started sitting in May 2002, on and off. But since 2008 I've been nonstop and my scores are....
AUD - 39, 48, 56, 65, 68, 73, 76!!! (Finally passed in Oct 2011!!!) Becker, NINJA, & Wiley
REG - 75 (Lost Credit) 72, 68, 73, 75 (Passed again in Aug 2011) Becker, NINJA, & Wiley
FAR - 65, 68, 75 (Lost Credit) 68, 73, 73, 80 (Passed again in May 2012) Roger, NINJA, & Wiley
BEC - 65, 68, 71, 72, 72, 71, 76 (Lost Credit)- 70, 76!!!! I AM DONE!!! - Roger, NINJA, & Wiley
After 10 long years of studying, I AM DONE!!!! Finally a Licensed CPA in the State of New York!!

@jomarie: Glad to know it went well! Hope you get the magic number!! Did you use Becker? If so, was it similar to Becker MCQs?

I actually watched the Becker Lectures, did the MCQs on the Wiley online test bank, and used the NINJA notes for review. I actually liked Wiley better than Becker. I actually didn't know there were different review courses besides Becker. Thanks to Another71 for opening my eyes. Becker was just not doing it for me.

Thank you!! I'm going over Becker MCQs, won't have much time for all Wiley MCQs so hopefully Becker is enough!

@JoMarie,

@jomarie sounds like you had a pretty good experience today! I bet you passed 🙂 I can find out my FAR score on the 21st too I think (I took it today) but my AUD test is the 29th so I'm just going to wait until at least after my AUD test or maybe even Dec 7th (when I get my AUD score) to find out both… at least that's my plan! If I didn't pass FAR I don't want it to hinder my studying for AUD…

It all depends on the real exam day. It may be the questions that you know so well on all the testlets( you are very lucky). So don't look at the score as a final score until you take the exam.

[mla1169]

wasn't the theory last time that 2 research questions meant you passed? I hope so for you (I only got one!)

FAR- 77
AUD -49, 71, 84
REG -56,75!
BEC -75

Massachusetts CPA (non reporting) since 3/12.

When I took REG I had 2 research questions and I passed. Hopefully, it's true!!

Glad to hear that you had a good exam experience, jomarie!

I take AUD on Monday and will also get my score just before taking FAR. I'm nervous about it hindering my studying/confidence, but I'm afraid not knowing will still preoccupy my mind. We shall see how it goes when the time comes. Maybe they'll be early like they were last window!

Good Luck on Monday!!!
