    Prometric informed me on 8th (Sept) evening that “your scheduled exam has been cancelled,you can reach us 24X7 to reschedule your exam ,sorry for blah blah blah”.Can you imagine the situation.I called a particular center in Atlanta and they helped me to reschedule my exam on 10th.
    Exam was as usual crappiest among all 4 sections ,nothing to do with FAR ,it’s all about Memos .In BEC they test our ability to write the memos and they give those memos (written by us) to FAR and AUD candidates.So you can say “Memos by CPA student for CPA student” ,poorly drafted memos full of BS and no meat ,after that SIM goes down to Intermediate accounting level.
    I request BEC guys to be nice to others , write good memos.We are forced to read those memos in REG ,AUD and FAR.
    Yes this FAR exam is all about reading Memos and solving Intermediate accounting ,nothing else.I was reading Wall street journal for last 2-3 months to prepare myself for FAR memos ( LOL ).
