CPA Exam Score Release & Results Timeline – Q3 2017

[Superdude3000]

Scores are released on 9/19 for 99% of us. For those who take it on 9/10 and their scores don't get prometric by the next day will be 9/25. Or for BEC takers whose WC section needs additional review.

Guys… we are getting close. Fingers crossed!

@Turbo I hunted down your experience. When you were checked out they didn't notice the status of your test? It seems like they have that capability because one time when I was finished the computer just kept thinking and wouldn't technically say I was finished, they wouldn't proceed until that was completed.

BEC - 79
REG - 85
AUD - 5/27/16

@Holly: I don't think they did. I know that they usually hover around every test-takers terminal, so I'm surprised they didn't notice it there. Usually there's a clear indication as to when the clock for the break starts. Not that I'm blaming anyone or anything, but I do think they could've verified whether my break timed or not. Thankfully, it didn't come to bite me in the end.

For others that are interested, I've since posted my experience in the REG Exam experience thread.

I am in the midst of studying for FAR, have it scheduled for November 17th… A part of me doesn't want to know my REG score from July, but I know I won't be able to hold out….

passed the ethics exam while waiting for the scores to release, it was pretty tough! One more week to go!

[CPAIN2K17]

ONEEEEEEE WEEEEEKKKK!!! Haven't thought about score release too much but these next 7 days probably won't go by too fast. Going to do my ethics exam this weekend so I will be good to go come Tuesday.

@mytaylo I am happy to see you felt better about FAR this time around. Hope we will be celebrating together on Monday night!

@turbo sounds like you passed REG, so Monday night will probably be a celebration for you as well!

Haven't heard from @wannafree but hopefully all of us Q2 FAR people will be done with this exam come next week!

Good luck everyone!

[HoldMyBeerCPA]

@CPA2K17: I sure hope you're right. I felt really good about this one, in fact much better than expected. I'm hoping that doesn't parlay into the “You thought you did well, so you failed” thing.

I thought about doing the ethics exam, but my superstitious nature just will not allow me to tempt fate on this one.

I'm sure you crushed this exam though. If I were to guess I'd say you got a score of 96.

@CanPassAttitude I switched to Gleim which prepared me much better. I used Yaeger for FAR and just couldn't get some of the topics. The first two times I took AUD was a few years back and all I had was the Wiley Testbank and book. That didn't work too well.

Gleim is very wordy and detailed on some things, and studying for REG and BEC has made me feel like crying some days, but I know if I can get through it and take the time to understand the concepts, then I will be over-prepared and that is waaaay better than being under-prepared come exam day.

I just hope that I am not in the dreaded bubble and can get my score on the 19th. And hopefully it will be a passing score. That would take a lot of worry off of my shoulders. It would be horrible to get a failing score the day after I start my new job.

BEC-65
AUD-72(8 '14); 68(11 '14)
FAR-
REG-

@chasinCPA – I don't have any advice for you, but I am in a similar situation so your post felt familiar. I fully studied for FAR, but I know people say you never feel ready. I took in August as planned, and I didn't think I'd feel good when I walked in, but I felt pretty good walking out. I know I made some errors, but I felt pretty good on the majority of MCQs and the SIMS were long/lengthy but I feel I handled them pretty well. Ultimately I don't know what to think though because these exams are impossible to predict. I had told myself I'd be reviewing material since taking the test, but like you I haven't been able to buckle down, and I really do think it's because I felt better about it than I thought I would and think I may have a chance to pass and NOT have to restudy this one. (I'm sure I'll be kicking myself if I don't).

So I don't have any advice. I'm going to try to review lightly the next week, but I'm hoping I do get good news and can move on to studying for my next one. I wish you luck and hope we both get good news.

Hoping to get some advice…

I took FAR back in April & found out I failed in august. Since the score release time was so long, I moved on to study BEC, which I just took on Sept. 7th. I had rescheduled to take FAR again at the end of October, but now I am second guessing it.

Should I wait to see if I passed BEC or not? If I did not pass should I retake BEC before I retake FAR and push off my FAR retake later on? Or should I study FAR to retake end of october and in the event I failed BEC take that after?

P.S. Since I took far so long ago, I feel I need to basically start all over as far as studying goes- probably taking me longer then 4 weeks to prep for it.

Thanks in advance!

Since you aren't ‘on the clock' yet I'd recommend waiting to see if you passed BEC. Information is still fresh in your head. Based on your FAR score you probably would have to completely restart so maybe just hold off, not trying to be rude or anything just being realistic. Do you feel good about BEC?

[Bianca]

After BEC I didn't feel physically beat up like I did after FAR, I guess thats a good sign? but who really knows. I knew for sure I failed FAR whereas I can't say the same for BEC but I don't want to get my hopes up.
Also, FAR I used strictly Becker. For BEC I hopped on the ninja MCQ train and studied that along with Becker.

[mmasulli]

need some encouragement waiting on my FAR score…… threw hail mary passes on the last 2 sims but felt comfortable on prob 4/6 of the other ones. Second MCQ testlet was definitely harder than the first. I walked out defeated and extremely stressed knowing what happened the last two SIMS. Am i completely screwed on this? or is there a chance i passed?
