CPAreviewforfree to me was harder than Wiley. But you should be fine because the exam mirrors Wiley in my opinion. Actually, it was probably easier than Wiley.

How are the sims graded? Is each simulation worth a certain %, or are all parts of the sim worth different amounts?

FAR: 86
AUD: 88
REG: 85
BEC: 84
DONE!

Stopped by looking for encouragement. I'm using CPAExcel, WTB, and NINJA 10pt, so materials are covered. I'm studying at least 3 hours every day, and my comprehension is pretty good so far. But, I'm getting behind on my schedule in CPAExcel. The material is literally putting me to sleep and I'm finding it hard to pay attention. I'm almost learning more by going through the problems and seeing how they are done, then working examples. Next week, I'm starting my Ninja Notes and Audio, and I'm wondering if that will help, or if it will just make me more bored 🙂

Test is Feb 22nd, and I'm not going to reschedule this time (3rd time around, rescheduled the first one to the last day, got a 53, then didn't even show up for my next retake, so I'm committed to the date this time). But, I'm nearly 7 days behind the CPAExcel plan and getting worried that I won't get back on track.

Suggestions would be great!

Cpa excel can be a little over whelming, but if you have Wiley test bank or book, I would go with that. It might be good to get something a little better sectioned topic wise.

It begins with a 75
Been here too long as a cheerleader....ready to pass

So screwed need advice! I have been studying for far since the second week of December. I scheduled my test for 1/18 and have a serious dilemma. I have finished the becker book again (this is a retake) but haven't done the homework for chapters 6 through 10. I am an auditor and will be out at client sites for the rest of the month and most of february so the the 18th is really the last shot I have to take an exam before busy season is crazy and studying won't be possible. Please what should I do? Should I just go ahead and take it anyway, fail and restudy again for May? I'm not in danger of losing sections. Or postpone it until late february knowing that I'll have more time to work on the homework but studying will be limited since I'll be in the field. Employer has already stated that after January no time off can be taken for exams until busy season is over.

For those using Becker, I have a question on F2. My understanding is that for non monetary exchanges that lack commercial substance and where boot is paid then a gain is NOT recognized. Gain is only recognized when boot is received and you use the </> 25% rule.

In the HW (Question # 12), boot was paid. The answer and explanation shows a gain should be recognized. Am I missing something? This is so confusing!
