    Lets say for example on a FAR simulation, that you are selecting drop down items for journal entry accounts and there is a line (or lines) where there is no entry required. Do you have to select “no entry” if it is an option? Or could you leave it blank? Especially if the directions do not specify whether to select “no entry”. (it usually says put in a “0” for other types that have no numerical answer)

    Also, what if there is no option for “no entry” and you realize that you selected an account when there should not have been an entry? Are you stuck with leaving an unnecessary account filled in with a wrong answer? I have come across this in some of Becker’s SIMS.

    Thanks, and any input is appreciated.

    @accountabergs, all sims are graded by computer. The only part of the entire exam viewed by a human is the BEC writing section, and I think that may only be if you are in the BEC bubble and within a few points +/- of passing.

    FAR (1/15/14)- 92
    AUD (5/05/14)- 94
    BEC (5/28/14)- 85

    Another thing: If the JE sims are graded by a computer, would it matter if you have 2 debit accounts in no particular order? I just took a Becker final exam and it marked my JEs wrong because I had “New Asset” as the 2nd row and “cash” as the first row in the debit column. This type of thing scares me.

    Understandably so, and I was worried about that as well before I started testing. But I think the real exam is generally much better designed and vetted.

    AUD 84 (1/9/14-Wiley books/TB + free materials)
    FAR 83 (5/21/14-the above + NINJA 10 Pt Combo Lite)
    REG 84 (7/9/14-Wiley books/TB + NINJA Audio/FC/Notes)
    BEC 76 (10/5/14-Wiley books/TB + NINJA Audio/FC)
