Just curious, but has anyone tried to calculate their CPA exam score and been close to what their actual score is??

REG-76-11/2013
AUD-80-2/2014
FAR-83-1/2015
BEC-79-2/2015

So glad to have my life back!!!!

If you figure that out I think you'd be a celebrity.

Pretty much impossible to do because you don't know which questions were pre-test, which questions are worth more points, and nobody really knows how the SIMS are graded. Also, I'm pretty sure the exam is curved in one way or another even though the AICPA says its not. I find it hard to believe that pass rates are almost perfectly consistent from year to year without them curving it.

I asked a different version of this question not that long ago. Basically asked if people have been able to guess their score +/- 5 points accurately. A couple people said they could but overall no one knows. For every person that thought they bombed and passed there is another person who thought they passed and bombed.

Every time I exit a test I tell people my score is somewhere between a 55-90. I have yet to be wrong.

Impossible, IMO.

The general consensus is no and that to just go in as prepared as possible and do your best.

I got a score of 13 after only completing one testlet of the BEC exam and somehow exiting the exam after. Not sure what that score even means and there's no way to have extrapolated that into a score prediction.

REG 77 Feb14
BEC 13*, 79 Aug14
FAR 64**, 76 Nov14
AUD 89 Feb15

*Exited exam after first testlet
**Only studied F1-F6 out of 10 Becker chapters

BEC and AUD, I was in the ballpark. I felt like I scored somewhere between 73-77 for both BEC and AUD. I was pretty close, got a 79 for BEC and 77 for AUD.

For FAR, I was completely off. I felt I scored somewhere in the high 60's. 67, 68 etc. But I ended up with a 79. I did better on MC than I thought I did, and I did fairly well on Sims.

Not even the students who can score a 99% on Audit can calculate their results before score release.

FAR= 72-84
Audit= 73-82
BEC= 74-75
Reg=77

I was pretty close. Took the Reg and wasn't sure if I passed or not. Sure enough, I scored a 74. Guess I was pretty close. 🙁

@Club300 curious when you say you did better on MC that you thought you did, did you get a report that showed your scores broken out for MC's and SIMS or is that just a gut feeling?

BEC: 81
FAR: 75
AUD: 81
REG: 85

@law0915 was there a computer problem did you know right away or did you finish the entire exam and then found out there was an issue after the first testlet

BEC: 81
FAR: 75
AUD: 81
REG: 85

Yup, in California we receive a diagnostic of our results broken up by MC section and Simulations in total.
