Does anyone have any that ended in success? I just sat for FAR and am feeling uneasy about the SIMS but I’m hoping that’s not a death sentence….definitely didn’t get the research question and filled in zeros/guesses for two others due to time.

Thanks for the stories guys. Makes me feel at ease during “WAIT WEEK”. Longest 7 days of my life every time there's a score release. 🙂

When I sat for REG this summer, I literally guessed on about 85% of all SIM fields. There was one that had about 50 blank spaces, I put 0 in for just about all of them.

Passed w/ a 76.

IL
FAR (2/20/13): 76
AUD (4/8/13): 78
BEC: (5/20/13): 86
REG: (7/10/13): 76
Ethics: Done
Operation "Hurry up and pass this thing before we have our first baby in October" COMPLETED

@dontpokethebear: Well, that's interesting, because I felt very good about most of my SIMS on FAR and WC on BEC, yet I wasn't anywhere close to 88….and I did stronger on MCQs…..

I felt really bad about REG sims and I thought I did worse on them in comparison to AUD, and got a similar score on both….something is definitely off…..and c'mon, what are the chances the same person gets exactly the same score on 2-3 different exams??? Apparently super high, because I see it happen way too many times……..anyone good at statistics?

FAR: 81 (May 2013)
BEC: 81 (July 2013)
REG: 83 (August 2013)
AUD: 82 (November 2013)
California CPA since 1/30/14

I feel this way about my Audit test 3 weeks ago. I feel like i bombed at least 4 of the 7 SIMS. I had enough time to finish the test but not much time to think about the SIMS because there were so many blanks. The ones that I pretty much guessed on were hard to even know what to search for in the AL. We will see Friday….I am going to just assume I did not pass because of the SIMS. That whole test kicked my butt! The MCQ's were definitely tough so I hope that means I had “hard” questions. It will just be frustrating to re-study for this one and trying to prepare better for the SIMS.

AUD - 73,91
FAR - 79 - Thank you God!
BEC - 73,79!!!!
REG - 92 whatttt??!

I used Becker review + flashcards, Ninja Audio, Ninja MCQ supplement on BEC and REG.

Done! Praise God!
