Monir….you have this issue too? I just asked CPAexcel about it and they said I should be seeing my scores for the sims and I must have exited out too soon or something. But I've had this issue with all my other sections too. You don't see your score either?

The key to this question is “The appropriate journal entry has been recorded on December 31, 2011. ” It means that the accountant had made appropriate J/E to adjust the account. It doesn't matter if you debit it the whole amount in prepaid or in expense, as long as you make the APPROPRIATE J/E at year-end it will be in the same balance. Technically, you can make all kind of errors you want during the year, as long as you make appropriate J/E at year-end it will be okay. (There is a reason why we have auditors to audit us at year end!)

The Wiley Book is harder than the Wiley test bank. I would say:

Wiley Testbank = lv 2

Wiley Book = lv 3.5

Becker Testbank = lv 4

I was able to get 50% on Wiley book and 80% on Wiley testbank..

I have been using Wiley Testbank recently, anyone feel like the Wiley Testbank can't generate practice test without repeating questions? The same question keep appearing on the practice test! I feel like i will never be able to see “new” questions on the test…

Also, I have be scoring top 70s and low 80s on these Wiley 90 Question Practice Test, is that good enough to pass the test? I generally score 60% of the MC and 80% of the simulations, so that average out to 78-82 overall.

I flip through the Becker Testbank, it's very difficult compare to Wiley Testbank. I don't know which one should I use. But I am planning to take the test in mid-November (not yet scheduled).

I am planning to schedule it in beginning of November for Mid-November. Will I be able to find myself a spot for test?

@yellowsugar

I had the same problem with WTB, but then i realized you can change the selection criteria from “All questions” to “not seen yet” when your in the practice session.

I also have Becker and I”ve been using both, when i finish reviewing a section I do all the questions in Becker, than i do all the questions in WTB for that particular section.

I think if your flexible with the location of where you take the exam you should be fine… at least that's what i am banking on this go round.

I hope my 2cents is helpful.

@NySinghCPA1985

Simulations did me in also. If you have areas that you felt weaker I would start with those sections. Listen to the videos again and then do all the questions. For the sections your confident,do all the questions and then review the material if you need to gain more clarity. Also, when i do the questions i start w/simulations since this was my weak area.

This has been my strategy this go round,I hope this was helpful.

I'm currently going between phases of FREAKING OUT and being boisterously confident…. sometimes in the same day!!

I am re-taking my exam Sunday. I got a 70 with pretty minimal studying last time (but with a previous base of FAR knowledge from 2 attempts in 2008 and 2009 – whatever that is worth), so I'm thinking since I have been studying a LOT and feel as if I'm retaining and learning SO MUCH more this time, I am definitely going to get those 5 extra points. But we all know it's really *75* points I need to get.

Pass and I'm done forever. Don't pass and I'm into my last testing quarter to pass before I lose REG (and sorrowful holiday season). I don't want to get to that point. Despite my sometimes waivering confidence, this has been one of my only tests I haven't wanted to or even thought about rescheduling to a later date. From the day I got my 70, I committed to take it on time for the 11/1 or 11/4 release date and have been studying as if this were my very last shot. This concludes nbad's inner thoughts for the day.

@DJN, are you taking your exam tomorrow?? Good luck!!!!

REG - 65, 70, 80!
BEC - 35, 62, 79!
AUD - 73, 75!
FAR - 65, 73, 70, 75! DONE.
