    Hello All,

    I’m current studying pension accounting using Gleim CPA Review. I’m scoring in the 60’s in the TBS. I’m freaking out because im struggling with the concepts. Pension accounting is like foreign language to me. I’ve watched the NINJA plus videos but Bob Monette does not go over all of the topics that show in the Gleim book. I still have bonds, leases, derivatives, and combinations to study, and my exam in scheduled for October 29. Help!!

    I don't want to direct your studying because every exams different, but if I remember from my FAR exam the pension questions were pretty basic.

    Thanks. I’m just taking extra precautions. I know FAR is known for throwing curve balls, so I want to have all my bases covered. I know how to calculate pension expense, but I struggle with the journal entries and stock based payments. Ive read the chapters about 3 times already and the information does not stick.
