Hello my fellow Ninjas! Took FAR this afternoon, and before I am 3 sheets to the wind-here is my impression. As with all of these-it seems easier and harder than anything I have seen in practice. Just random MCQ-collectively not hard but just WTF topics…overall I felt good about those and was done in about an hour. 2nd testlet had more calcs-I can never tell whether the difficulty goes up-it didn't get easier for sure. Now onto SIMS-nailed the research-but took me a while. 2nd SIM was just really from the moon-no way I got any of it correct. @Lentil and @ReckedRacing, based on your comments, I think I might have had the same SIMS. I had 3-4 DRS, I can't remember, but the thing that pissed me off the most, is that I had a fairly easy SIM, which was made impossible but the flipping through docs and scrolling, etc. An hour into it, I just said F it and plugged in a number I know is wrong but I literally couldn't take it any more. I am going to write to AICPA or whoever, they need to do something about this crap. They are making the logistics of completing these SIMS hard but not on merit, which is annoying! The rest of it wasn't easy but doable. I had 48 minutes left when i was done. Anyhow, no studying until the 19th and looking forward to my vacation Tuesday coming up!
