@mtaylo24 Hopefully this will be your final and last time you'll see this exam again. Leave nothing left in the tank and don't forget to read the instructions for the sims.

Hi all,

Taking FAR on 5/31. Last part for me hoping to get this done! Just seeing if anyone here has taken FAR in this window and could let me know if there were any topics that were frequently tested. Additionally, what topics have been tested as far as simulations? There is a so much material on this exam Anything would help!

Thanks,

Chris

I honestly don't think I could read another page of FAR. Test tomorrow. How's everyone feeling?

@pawnmaker ah, not sure if it was that one. the one I had was just eliminating a sale of equipment to a subsidiary. It made me mad because I didn't put my accounts in the same order as them for the JE, so it gave me a 0. Hard to gauge what my practice exam score really is when that happens.

@beantown honestly feeling unprepared. I miss stupid MCQs on stuff I should know and it freaks me out. But I think going into the exam confident is important, so I'll be sure to do that.

@mtaylo my exams at 8am, an hour away, good luck, go kill the thing and be done.

@cpain2k17- same. It's impossible to remember every detail of information, I don't think that's required to pass this thing. We got this.

Does anyone who studied for at least 3 months like me still remember everything you learned 2 months ago? If so, please explain how.

Thanks

[Pawn Maker]

Good luck tomorrow Mtaylo & Wannafree. You both are going to kill this thing.

What's the difference between the cost method and the new fair value method I can't find info anywhere. Is it treated like the equity method

[Anonymous]

Cost Method = FV Method = AFS* Method

*Available for Sale

So they just changed the name in the new materials?
