Hi, I’m a CA candidate. My FAR score should be out tomorrow. I’m not sure if i should check my score tomorrow or wait until i finish with AUD test on Thursday 2/27. I don’t think I would pass FAR. It was brutal when i took it on 1/21. I walked out feeling defeated. I guessed a lot of MCQ and left one SIM (research question) blank. My fear is knowing that i fail might discourage me from focusing on AUD. But not knowing might distract me more. Should i just check it and get it over with?

BEC - 10/1/13 PASS
REG - 12/6/13 PASS
FAR - 1/21/14 PASS
AUD - 2/27/14 PASS

Ended up checking FAR score… I found out that not knowing really messed with my head. I can't really concentrate on AUD study this morning. So i gave in and checked it. Good news i passed FAR. I guess I can't really tell how the result is going to turn out from the exam experience.

BEC - 10/1/13 PASS
REG - 12/6/13 PASS
FAR - 1/21/14 PASS
AUD - 2/27/14 PASS

Everyone is different. I was taking BEC, and AUD scores (which I'd just taken for the second time) came out a couple days before the exam. I looked at my score, as I felt pretty good about my exam when I left. It turned out that I had failed audit for the second time with zero improvement.

I stress out about exams big time. This has always been true, long before I started the CPA exam.

I also didn't feel like I'd studied sufficiently for BEC. So, when I walked into BEC, I went in expecting a fail. Because I was so sure I'd fail, I mostly went for the practice so my exam fees wouldn't be a TOTAL waste. Since I went in with that mindset, I actually never got anxious during the whole exam, even when I got questions I had no clue about. BEC actually ended up being the first section that I passed, and I really think it's because the pressure was off.

Obviously, I am a total weirdo, but if you are anything at all like me, you might want to check your score.

Way to go, StudyforCPA2014!

Hopefully you won't find that passing is just as distracting as not knowing! I actually considered score releases in making my study/testing plan after finding how distracted I was after I got my AUD score. It seems silly now. But it was my first one, and I was super excited! I imagine I'll probably be just as distracted on any other score release, though. They make us wait so long!

okay, get back to studying, StudyforCPA2014 🙂
