I was doing okay, around the 70's. I justified it with the thought that the questions were harder than the actual exam.

And when I walked out I felt good, like there were some that I had to guess on, but thought that was normal.

Wow. 56. I thought maybe at worst I'd be in the 60's. I really didn't want to have to open the book again. I feel like I wasted 4 months and a couple hundred dollars.

@HustlinHustlin Did the SIMS go okay? Don't let the 56 get you down. Everyone has a section that just kills them every time. Mine was REG. I was practically doing multiple choice questions in my sleep to pass that one!

FAR 81
AUD 82
REG 70, 67, 82
BEC 74, 77

@Minimorty, I appreciate your suggestion. I will definitely purchase Wiley then. I used Becker for all other sections, so I am used to the Becker format, that is why I was stubborn not to purchase other materials. Now, I realized, it is not enough.

Here is my report for the MC, can anyone advise me how I can improve Corp. Gov and IT section?

Score 73: Corp.Gov-Weak, Econ Concept-Weak, Fin. mgmt-Comparable, IT-Weak, Strategic Planning-Strong,Opr mgmt-Comparable

Score 74: Corp.Gov-Weak, Econ Concept-Weak, Fin. mgmt-Strong, IT-Weak, Strategic Planning-Strong, Opr mgmt-Comparable

Score 74: Corp.Gov-Weak, Econ Concept-Comparable, Fin. mgmt-Weak, IT-Weak, Strategic Planning-Strong, Opr mgmt-Comparable

@maybeCPA, @kaleyos, @Navara, Thanks for your comments. I really appreciate it. I am getting frustrating to see another 74 on my third try. Sigh…! I am looking for a little boost.

I'm in california and my score says 75 but it doesn't show any credit under the “status” column. Is this normal? Does this mean I didn't really pass??

@HustlinHustlin: I'm so sorry! I know how horrible it feels when you've studied, paid for the exam and still failed. Many of us unfortunately know the feeling. Don't worry about your score being low, it will NEVER matter once you've passed the exam! Don't give up!!

@ HustlinHustlin I suggest you mix and match. Becker alone is not good enough, (for many people) I passed FAR, REG and waiting on BEC (hopeful) because I mix it with Yeager/ Wiley. Becker is the most “pretty/modern” of all the review courses, but it will NOT teach you concepts needed to pass these exams. I used Becker alone for AUD because I am an auditor, I use it just for practicing mcq basically. my 0.2 cents.

[lefkothea]

@maybeCPA and @Navara thank you!!! This helps ease my mind a bit so I can focus on the next exam in a few days. I'm just so scared because it's exactly on the mark. I wouldn't be relieved until I see credit. They love to torture me!

[HustlinHustlin]

Thanks for the advice everyone. To be honest I studied half-@ss for way too long and then hit crunch time and damn, did I crunch. What threw me off is that I thought I did pretty well on the exam. The sims weren't bad, I thought for sure I had a few of them down and had a chance to guess at what I thought I didn't know for sure.

I will consider mixing another review course in. I just hate that I feel so dumb right now. People go in with blind guesses and still score higher than me.

Now I am just wondering if I should take it again next or focus on the rest of them and then attack it in the final stage.
