I felt even worse doing Final Exam #2, then I did when I did BEC Final Exam #2.. I was contemplating shooting myself in the leg to take some of the pain away…. WOW. This stuff is mind numbing.. Took me about 2 hours and 15 minutes.. Towards the middle of MCQs Testlet #2 I was ready to throw my laptop away, and just go home..

My exam is tomorrow morning.. Im going to spend the rest of the day today (only a few hours) reviewing final exam #2, and thats about it.. tomorrow maybe just run through as many flashcards as possible.. and hope for the best.

My results:

MC: 76, 67, 73

SIMs: 87, 75, 80, 65, 50, 58, 100(research)

How do you think I stand?

REG: PASS || BEC: PASS || AUD: PASS || F: SCORE PENDING..

I think you need to stop fretting about this test. you have passed the other two you have taken. I HATED audit, but it is what it is. At this point all you can really do is keep reviewing and take the test tomorrow. Keep in mind that you'll have the literature available for the sims. Take a breath and tackle it with confidence.

Audit was my nemesis. Believe it or not I passed FAR using only cpareviewforfree'com and google. For AUD I used cpareviewforfree, Wiley AND the ninja notes!

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

Massachusetts CPA (non reporting) since 3/12.

@mla1169 How do you pass FAR just using that? WOW. Im very impressed!

@Sandra I guess this is what I get for studying for 2.5 weeks only.. Stupid me. I should of just took a nice break in between exams. Good luck on BEC 🙂 Im positive youll rock it1

REG: PASS || BEC: PASS || AUD: PASS || F: SCORE PENDING..

I think 2.5 weeks is totally fine for AUD. Whats nice is that there really isn't a lot of information, nor is it complicated. Its all about short-term memory I think. I thought the test was actually surprisingly fair and well balanced over all the topics. I only got 1 $hitty sim and used the literature for that.

Just remember that time is very much on your side for this one- you have a ton of time. So no need to rush through it. I was shocked how quickly I got through the first testlet, but then really REALLY thought about the 5 or so I had marked and actually figured out about half of them.

Hahah, yeah 4 hours is a lot of time… Well Im on my way to AUDIT now… Hopefully it wont be TOO bad.. But I know everytime I've walked into the testing center and saw the first question im like $hit…….

REG: PASS || BEC: PASS || AUD: PASS || F: SCORE PENDING..

@futuremdcpa, congrats on passing..what was your score? review material?

I was going to post the same topic, b/c I also passed REG and BEC on first try. AUD is much harder then REG. REG at least was fun studying…

[futuremdcpa]

@Shay – Thank you!! I used only Becker. I only did everything one time, didn't have time to review anything else. I always read the chapter, and then do MCQ's after watch a lecture. I scored a 84, with only about 2-3 weeks of studying. I would say that the questions resembled Beckers, and were actually much easier then Becker. I ended up scoring Stronger on everything except SIM's.

I guess now that my mind is clear, becker has really worked for me for 3 exams. I've scored 80+ in every exam. I have FAR in 3 weeks.. hopefully it'll be enough time because I just started.

Good luck!!

REG: PASS || BEC: PASS || AUD: PASS || F: SCORE PENDING..

yea becker has worked for me all along. I read up A2 and watch videos. Now time to hit MCQ. hope to catch with you on FAR. Good luck with FAR.

My scores on final exam 2 were very comparable. Maybe just a little bit higher. I had bet a steak dinner with someone that I would pass. I was getting my debit card ready, because I felt each testlet got easier(I was not doing well). I did get lucky on the Sims, because I felt I did very well. In summary, do your best. It worked out for me.

FAR-7/5/12-88
AUD-8/26/12-94
REG-TBD
BEC-TBD

ooops, disregard that. Looks like it worked out!

FAR-7/5/12-88
AUD-8/26/12-94
