Does anyone know what the average score needed to receive the Elijah Sells Award? I’m waiting on BEC and I think i’m still in the running.

95.5? For some reason I thought only top 10 or so people got it. They are making it easy now!

“The Elijah Watt Sells Award program was established in 1923 by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) to recognize outstanding performance on the Uniform CPA Examination.

The 2011 award was presented to candidates who obtained a cumulative average score above 95.50 across all four sections of the Uniform CPA Examination, completed testing during the previous calendar year, and passed all four sections of the Examination on their first attempt. More than 90,000 candidates sat for the Exam in 2011. Plaques from the AICPA are presented to all award winners.”

You need a 98 on BEC. From what I've seen/heard, it's nearly impossible to get that score, since 15% of BEC is writing that's graded by a computer. But I'm rooting for you!!!

You bastards…;) VERY nice scores!

@Fearthebeard thanks! I'm rooting for you as well…. I will just be happy to be completely done with this grueling process

I missed a total of 9 points overall and I didn't get it

Haha, I'm not trying to win the award! I think I overstudied for the first two exams so I wouldn't have to take them again. Seriously, if I could get a 75 on REG and BEC today, without doing anything, I would take it. I'd rather enjoy the upcoming holidays and some NBA basketball (Thunder Up!!!) instead of worrying about Prometric fingerprinting me and wanding my ass haha.

@FearTheBeard – Go Pacers! ALthough, I follow OKC, as well. How do you feel about Harden's move?

BEC 81
AUD 76
FAR 70, 76
REG 58, 78! DONE!

Initially, I was upset that Harden turned down OKC's offer. But he made the right choice for himself by taking the max deal. Now he's making cash money while ballin' even better than last year. Definitely happy for him, although if OKC doesn't win the title, I'll always wonder “What if…?” But with KD still on our side, I like our chances…
