I failed this test over 12 times using CPA Excel, as soon as I switched to another software I got my first pass. Don't blame yourself for this, if you put in the time and effort and the material isn't sticking then you need another software.
In my opinion, CPA Excel is too boring to hold my attention. Try Roger and NINJA 🙂
AUD - Jan 9,13 Pass
REG - Aug 30,13 Pass
BEC - Oct 26,13 Pass
FAR - Dec 4,13 Pass
JUST WOW!!! I failed FAR the first time, and was just so scared to check my score this 2nd time around. I would not scroll down on the screen, the only reason I scrolled down was because I saw the 2nd digit as a 6!! Lol, so yes passed with a 76… thank you godddddddddddddddd i love youuu
ORcpaHOPEFUL – PLEASE HELPPPP!!! I am also using Roger CPA. I agree, he is kinda funny.
I am studying for REG (1st time) – taking it on Wednesday. I have studying for these tests for over 1.5 years. I only passed audit so far. Took FAR 4 times, BEC 2 times.
Hi everyone! I've been lurking on this site for so long, I figured I might as well participate…Waiting on my FARscore today, and I'm scared to death to check it. MA 507. I've been at this for so long, and I'm actuallys tarting over, this is only my first test, as all my other scores have expired. Just can't bring myself to check…
@Jennifer241-Totally agree! Yesterday night, when I watched governmental accounting video, I was kind of half sleeping..
@N. Alex, @tmturner74 AND @ Jennifer241 @ ORcpaHOPEFUL—My FAR is on 25th and I hope I can pass at 1st try…my deadline is in Jan 2014. I have to pass AUD and FAR before that .do you know it is OK for me to change another material now?!!!
Sorry to hear that, @Chan, keep your head , you'll pass…I don't even remember how many times I took this test…I just started using Becker, you should definitely try it…although I don't know my score yet…I'm gonna ouke am so nervous, can't check that score…
@pat1387- I am currently studying for BEC to take it for the first time and haven't taken REG yet. But as for FAR it took me three tries. The first two times I honestly didn't put in enough time. The third time I knew I was so sick if studying for FAR I couldn't even imagine taking it again. That's when I got the ninja notes! I wrote them over and over in my own words five times the week right before the test. I also mixed in some practice tests (because they tell you the answer right afterwords unlike the actual “take a test” option). I left the test feeling good but unsure- and found our I got a 79! As for audit, I took it the first time around after only cramming for six days straight and didn't have the ninja notes- got a darn 73! This time around I used the ninja notes like I did for FAR and hopefully I've passed (still waiting on scores.) My question to you is- what are you doing when you “re-study” for a section? You can't just re-study the weak areas… You gotta do it ALL! And you have to do soooooooo many MCQs you want to cry! And seriously try the ninja notes!!
