    Just curious as to what most peoples’ normal results are the first time going through multiple choice questions in the Becker FAR review. I’m trying to see how I measure up in the grand scheme of things.

    FAR 07/27/11 - 87
    AUD 10/01/11 - 85
    BEC 11/15/11 - 87
    REG 01/03/12 - 92

    Dont worry about that. anywhere from 30-90% is pretty typical the 1st time through depending on how closely you were paying attention when watching lectures. It's where you are at the end of your review that matters

    Also, just focus on understanding the material thoroughly because ultimately the AICPA weights exam questions in a weird way and 20% of the questions don't count (you just don't know which ones).

    NoScores is absolutely right. Also, be sure to read all the answers to the questions that you miss or guess on. I learned as much from doing that as I did from reading the text.

    FAR 4/1/11 - 89
    AUD 4/15/11 - 85
    REG 4/29/11 - 80
    BEC 5/13/11 - 85

    Same, I feel pretty good if I get above 70% on my first try, but majority is around 50%.

    FAR 10/1/2010 =====> 90
    BEC 10/28/2010 ====> 81
    REG 2/2/2011 ======> 82
    AUD 5/28/2011 =====> 92 ===========>DONE!!!!

    For FAR, I got anywhere from low 70s to low 90s. However, it should be noted that for every 1 minute of lecture material, I actually spend about 3-4 minutes (CONSTANTLY pausing and taking detailed notes).

    For me, this correlated to a 90% on the actual exam (went through each lecture and EVERY question twice + did all sims twice).

    I'm getting between 50 and 70 first time through. I've heard that that's pretty normal.

    FAR - F (2011), 5/16
    AUD - F(2011)
    BEC -
    REG -

    2nd attempt at this thing. Time to get serious.
