    What is a good Wiley Test Bank percentage? My highest percentage is currently at 56%, and I am getting kind of nervous since the exam is this coming Saturday.

    it might be a good idea to include all questions when you do a practice session instead of only those not seen yet. its not the quantity of questions that you do but how well you understand the questions and that comes naturally by repeating them and reading the explanations

    To be honest, if you are doing 72 questions a day. Thats probably two hours, maybe 2.5.

    What are you doing with the rest of your day?

    Here's what I realized going through; it's not about how many questions or how many hours you study; it boils down to this:

    do you know the material?

    I wouldn't just do 72 MC and wipe your hands and be done with it.

    If you are awake, study; it's only one week of that.

    If that is your average for current work, then as others have said, you'd better buckle down and “fix” it! My first exam was BEC and my average in WTB ironically was the exact same as my score, if I remember correctly. For the other exams it was still fairly similar. However, if you had really low scores at the start and higher scores now, then the fact that your overall average is lower isn't that concerning! My advice would be to set WTB to show only the results from, say, the past week, and then see where your weak areas are and go back and review those areas in your textbook and/or notes…and also see what that average looks like.

    “P. S.” to all of that – you still have a week left. Scoring 55% now could translate to 75% or 85% before you hit test-day. So, study your guts out, promising yourself that you can relax on Sunday, because you've got 4 full days between now and the test, and you can make a HUGE difference in that time if you really work at it!

    Thanks everyone for the suggestions and encouragement. Also, in addition to the MCQs, I'm going over specific lectures and MCQ in CPAexcel on topics that I'm not doing so well in. And what I'm understanding from the suggestions is that during those couple of final days I should be doing as much MCQs as I can? (and should I add Ninja notes and audio to the to-do list in the final week? I have wrote the notes 2x and read the notes and listened to the audio 5x)

    All right, I got 63% on my most recent practice session. I'm planning on going over Individual Tax Issues, Tax Credits, and Malpractice Liability (my weak areas from the most recent practice session) in CPAexcel tomorrow and do more MCQ.

    MC over & over! Know how to apply the tax laws. Work tax sims since that is your weak area. Remember it can show up on the sims. Computational questions are worth more than theory.

    I would skip the lectures and just drill MCQs over and over and over. You need to get every module of that histogram up to at least 75% (preferably 80%). I would target the lowest ones first and attack them one by one until they're all green, or at the very least, close to green.
