    Is anyone else as amused as I am at some of the answers to the multiple choice questions in Becker?

    For example, in IT there is an answer to an AICPA Released 2006 question: “preventative”. Becker explains the poor wording of the AICPA’s question and goes on to say “Also, ‘preventative’ controls in choice ‘a’ should probably be ‘preventive’ controls. Even Google did not like the word ‘preventative’.”

    It’s funny to read the answers to some of these Released questions. If the AICPA throws out such poorly written questions, why put them in the review?

    Anyway, it helps me remember the answers better when I see some snarky remark about the examiners.

    I dont remember that one. I think they may put them in the review to help us be aware of the crap the aicpa can throw our way.

    PS I am praying for ya!!!

    Haha I remember that one. Unfortunately it's almost impossible to get complete coverage on IT stuff for BEC. Good luck CPAWannaBe! Hopefully we can be done this window, I am completely worn out!

    big shot!

    Where have you been? I've been so lonely here with all my buds passing the exam and leaving me all alone on the forum…

    We should be done with all of this in a week if all goes well. You were close to passing REG in November. Let's do this. I am worn out too!

    You are still here. Thank you for sticking around. You have made it to “the other side” and still help us out. Love your Excel spreadsheets for BEC. They are very thorough with all the formulas. You could market those!
