Does anyone know if the breakdown of various sections on progress/practice tests is similar to the actual test? I.e. the amount of questions from each section….

I wouldn't worry about it. Learn it all.

AUD - 74, 99 !!
REG - 74, 92
BEC - 83
FAR - 73, 86

@anyatver from what I see in Becker they do not. Becker practice exam takes a straight percentage of questions answered correctly against the total number of questions in each testlet. I do not think this is how the actual exam is being graded.

AUD 7/6/16 Passed
BEC 9/3/16
FAR TBD
REG TBD

No they don't. Reviews are straight percentage. I think they purposely do it so you don't get any clues as to what is worth “more” in the eyes of the “testing” weight.

I guess I meant more along the lines of how many questions from each section are included. I did figure just study everything equally, so that I am not scared by any particular section or topic…. Rather not think about all those weights, etc. because I feel like that keeps me focused on the wrong thing….

@anyatver it looks like Becker is very close to the ratio that's outlined for the section when you do the final review and select all chapters, however, I am not sure that's how it will be on the exam.

You can have it loaded with Blaw in MCQ section and be heavy on let's say corporate and property tax on SIMs, whiche are 40% of your Total score.

So it would not be correct to assume that you will have a certain percentage on each topic on your MCQ part.
