    @Nam had a very similar experience to yours, did not get my testlet from hell 🙁 sigh…



    @Igotthis
    I feel your pain, (hugs). We will just have to all wait and see. But for now, we can at least relax a little until then (although it will be hard to).

    @Nam Tricky and wordier still. Averaging 3-4 lines in a question, and some of the choices are also long for the theory side. Also, Nam, I'm referring to the “hell” thing as not emphasized by the review materials as others have stated. As I've pointed out in another thread, the concepts are not clear to me. Maybe you interpret it in another way or so.

    EDIT: As a matter of fact, don't get too serious about my opinion. As stated before, the term hard is pretty subjective. Testlet 3 became hazy for me right after the exam, but I have a general feeling that it was crappy for me because my feeling on Testlet 2 carried over. I do remember some questions with 5 lines as they stand out.

    FAR - 92 02/2013
    AUD - 90 05/2013
    REG - 85 10/2013
    BEC - 80 12/2013

    I'M DONE. THANK YOU LORD!

    @nam I didn't feel like mine got wordier either. My memory is a little hazier now, but I definitely remember feeling discouraged that they didn't get longer/more computational. I felt like the topics got a little harder, but who knows?

    I think I was stronger in calculations, so to have my test be more conceptual was not good.

    F - 86
    R - 90
    A - 97
    B - 91

    @Nam, cpahopeful

    Guys, please stop worrying now! In FAR hard testlest, long calculations or even wordier problems had not even came up for me, only a slight increase in difficulty, almost indiscernible!

    During the exam I felt like I was never given a chance to prove my accounting abilities in regards to complex issues. Nah, nothing like that, just unworthy crap kept coming up in testlests 2 and 3.

    BUT, look below and see my grade. Yes, for days I wondering if I got off easy or completely failed but then I would recall my diligent preparation and knew there was a great chance that I've passed.

    So, please relax for now and perhaps organize materials for your next sections. You can do it, including this wait!

    Nam, we both must have taken the exact same exam. The first section confused me some, so I think it was medium, the second section was slightly easier but I think it was half-easy, half-medium questions, and the final section was just HARD. Simulations were OK.

    I'm just glad I reviewed a lot stuff right until the last minute. That might have gotten me some extra points.

    CPA license in progress....

    Well, I guess all we can do now is wait.

    I don't feel too good about my exam.

    There was no testlet from hell. I went blank on simple subjects, and there was one sim I completely blew.

    Chugging wine and looking forward to a mindless night of American Idol.

    I hate FECCN IFRS and FAR

    Jeff, as mod I'd like to use my powers for evil and delete that Test Your Might.

    What are you tying to do to us man???? You KNOW today is the last day of the Jan/Feb testing window. You KNOW nobody wants to see that mess right now.

    got back from FAR a few hours ago so i figured i would chime in…

    First testlet was easy, i think i nailed it!

    Second was more difficult, very wordy only had a few that i was unsure about.

    Third was a BEAST, but think i did ok.

    SIMS were awful. Research i found in 5 minutes(whew)! As far as the other 6 go, they went HAM on me. I definitely didn't study the je's enough.

    Oh how next week cant come soon enough! Good luck to everyone else expecting scores next week.

    BEC-75!
    AUD-84!
    REG-78!
    FAR-83!
    Ethics-Passed!
    Experience-Got that too
