I failed ethics with an 84%! What the heck.

That's really close! You get two more tries right?

How did you prepare? I am taking it Friday. My coworker told me to just read the book and take the test 🙂

Yes, I have 2 more tries. There was a link to the Rules on my state board website (where I took the exam), so I didn't prepare for it. I'm so annoyed that I have to wait two weeks to retake it. And what if I fail again? What happens when someone fails all 3 attempts?

I was able to look up every answer but I guess I must have interpreted a question incorrectly or something. It seems pretty subjective honestly. Ugh.

I didn't know you had to wait two weeks! How will you prepare for it differently next time? 🙂

I don't think it's something that you need to prepare for, per se. It's open book so you can look at at Rules to answer the questions. For my state, you have 48 hours to submit the exam after you start it. I spent 1.5 hours on it and submitted it right away. There were a couple protest questions, but I was only allowed to miss 2 questions to pass. I missed 3 and failed with an 84%. I will just take my time when I retake it in 2 weeks.

Thank you! What state are you in?

Mine is the AICPA test
