Guys CA is up. It says Advisory score next to mine at the bottom. On the top the table is empty. What does it mean?

This is stressful. I keep thinking back to the exam (first try at REG). First MC testlet seemed kinda difficult. Then, the next one was really hard. Then the 3rd was kinda easy. And I felt like the SIMS were relatively easy. I think I got 3 or 4 of them 100% right because I had loads of time to double-check the Authoritative Lit. and none of them required much calculation, etc.

Problem is…I've got this nagging fear that the test eased up on me in the last testlet and SIMS because it knew I wasn't gonna pass. Either that, or I aced the thing (which I'm quite sure I didn't). Ugh. Just end this thing & give me a score!!

AUD - 82 (10/13)
REG - 84 (11/13)
BEC - 91 (2/14)
FAR - 81 (4/14)

I'm DONE!!!! Thanks Jeff & all the Ninjas out there who answered questions & encouraged me along the way!

@Gatorbates That makes sense, I don't have experience in tax or audit. My brain refuses to accept tax material, it says no to retention because:

a. there's nothing conceptually for me to attach to my thought processes

b. the laws and rules feel so temporary and changing

c. I'm a closeted anarchist at heart and don't like inefficient counterintuitive rules/laws.

Audit I have no experience in, but I understood the concepts and thought patterns.

I have general private company accounting experience being a financial analyst which I know helped me for FAR and am banking on it helping for BEC???

FAR:91 2/28/13
AUD:89 5/29/13
REG:75 8/30/13
BEC:? 11/21/13 Waiting

I got my 73 on REG in January as well! That's a wild coincidence. Here's hoping we both pass!

I just mailed out my application fee just in case I don't get a passing score on Friday/Saturday. I will be in Vegas on Friday, so hopefully I can enjoy myself… This is the first time actually preparing for an exam. I took all 4 sections back in 2010, in order to avoid CBT-e, but failed miserably. I don't remember working more than 50 questions per section and relied on lectures. What a big mistake! My whole game plan changed taking BEC this past November. I am now using the NINJA framework and working tons of MCQs. Lets hope I see a passing score!

BEC - Passed!

@steph you nailed the rollercoaster of emotions!

During exam – WTF are they even asking?

Walking out of exam – Definitely failed

Week after exam – Maybe low 70's?

Two weeks after exam – Maybe there's a slight change I passed?

I'll only add:

Day before score release – Nah no chance i passed, need to get mentally ready for a Fail.
