    I'm finally at a 70%. Most of the ones that I'm getting wrong are the ones with a ridiculous amount of calculation that I just can't seem to remember. I'm just worried about getting calculations very different from what I'm seeing since there's a million different ways they can ask you to solve for something…oy….

    Sure have. 1865 done as of today. I mean, I had a 65 average in REG and passed. I think the insurmountable pressure of probably being done with this thing is starting to get to me…so I feel like I need to master everything but I can't retain it all! lol…I guess if there were more consistency than randomness I wouldn't be freaking out nearly as much.

    I'm struggling more with the computational questions than conceptual. I don't know if I should keep going in ninja or go back to Becker. Ninja is just depressing!! I keep getting questions wrong… exam Saturday. I'm doomed!

    @aspiringcpa2014 If computational questions are your weak areas, either work them more in Becker or set NINJA to only pull questions from those areas. At least you've recognized your weak areas (and those are the same weak areas that we all seem to have so you're not alone). You've still got a few days to just hammer those sections home.

    @angelwatch you really are an angel lol you have definitely contributed a lot to this bec q1 group. So thank you! I actually just created a progress test with all the Becker questions and I'm going through them one by one. I “exited” the progress test so I can attempted the question knowing the answer is right on the bottom (thanks to the poster who mentioned this). I taped a piece of paper over the bottom of my laptop so I can't see the answer solutions. I attempt the problem then look down at the answer and analyze. For me this does a few things…

    1. doesn't discourage me when I consistently see that yellow highlight over the incorrect answer.

    2. It pulls for all 6 chapters so I'm not doing one chapter at a time and I don't know what chapter the question is coming from.

    oh yea, can't forget about the WC!

    3. I don't have to wait to complete the progress test to see my answer. I hate that feature actually. I want to know why my answer is wrong/right now before I forget why I even chose it 🙂

    Did you guys know that Management will most likely increase interest rates if they expect inflation during the time they are determining the NPV for an investment. Management would also increase the dollar amount of the future cash flows to make up for the expected inflation. Also, if management does not expect a change in tax rates then the cash flows earned from the effects of depreciation (indirect cash flows) will not be adjusted because those cash flows are from the original investment/historical cost. Isn't this crazy news?? I mean who would have thunk it!!!
