    Just got back from my test. I don't even know how I feel, I think every time I tried to have some hope it ended up a disappointment. Anyways, my first booklet was okay, I only flagged 4 questions. Second booklet was a nightmare!! I flagged probably 12 questions. I flag anything I'm not 100% sure or confident on. Third booklet was about in the middle of the first two on difficulty. Simulations, I only had 1 hour and 15 minutes .. LEAVE MORE TIME THAN THAT! .. they weren't absolutely awful but I left the last one blank bc I ran out of time..

    Now BEC on 2/28… I really hope this journey ends soon. Has anyone used the 10 point combo for BEC? Did it help? I passed once but so long ago that I can't remember how I studied.

    BEC: 65 - 79* - 84 DONE
    AUD: 65 - 76 DONE
    REG: 63 - 77 DONE
    FAR: 65 - 63 - 67 - 69 - 73 - 71 - 83 DONE

    Solution explanation: The amount used to compute a gain or loss on bond retirement is the carrying amount of the bond ad the pro rata portion of bond issue cost.

    Original carrying amount $500,000

    BIC (6000X 10/15) (4,000)

    Net carrying amt 6/2/yr 6 496,000

    Portion Retired X 50%

    Amount used to compute gain/loss 248,000

    {R: PASSED!! (I passed one!)}
    {B: PASSED!! (Halfway there!)}
    {F: PASSED!! (1 left!!!)}
    {A: PASSED(I am done!!)}

    @Hopeful, SIMS weren't absolutely awful?! Interesting!

    Just thinking about it… I always put the flag on the questions I have answered with 100% certainty, haha. Kindof like I am checking it off as complete.

    AUD: 84
    REG: 84
    BEC: 79

    {F: PASSED!! (1 left!!!)}
    {A: PASSED(I am done!!)}

    @samdiegoCPA – I do that for the SIMS, once I've answered it I flag it and don't go back. But I guess I'll just have to wait now and find out 🙁
