    It was maybe a little better than last time.

    There were some MCQ’s which were difficult but also many I knew for sure. It appeared that the second testlet and third got harder but I can never really tell. I am fairly certain I did well on the first testlet.

    The SIMS were REG sims.

    -Research was easy.

    -Three SIMS were identical in form to last test but the facts were different, which made it just as hard as last time.

    -One was on a topic not even covered in CPAExcel but I think I did fairly well on it (I’m guessing that due to the topic, it was the pre-test).

    -One was semi easy, should have picked up some points on it.

    All in all, feels like a 71 or 72. Kind of bummed but get glimpes of hope.

    Now that this is done, I’m getting promoted at work and will be traveling out to CA. Assuming that grades are released according to the schedule, I’ll either be on a plane, in LA, or at the Ronald Reagan museum when I get my grades back. It will likely be a rough trip.

    I’m just glad to be getting some rest.

    Well, Morty rubs some people the wrong way…and he's a bit tactless at times, but he does give solid advice usually and there was a struggling candidate recently that he purchased a Wiley test bank for – just because he wanted to help the candidate.

    You know what I do when I think people are “crotch lint” (never heard that phrase before…I'll have to tuck it away for future use)?

    I ignore them. 😉

    If someone is being a disruptive a-hole, hit the report button (but don't cry wolf) and I will deal with it.

    Now … I have a big bottle of roundup waiting for me and weeds to go kill.

    Damn it… I have BEC in a bit and now I have to beat down my evil minion understudy. Mrs 300- you fail today. Calling me a bully? sigh. This is disappointing at best. You will be replaced shortly.

    That being said- I don't think I've been that $hitty to people on here, and actually don't (generally) wish anyone bad luck, etc. Its no great secret that do not care deeply about most peoples success, but I really do hope that people that work hard pass- at least as long as they don't irritate me along the way (mostly kidding). I've picked up quite a bit of useful stuff from here and have met some cool people. I think this board is a great support system, but that being said there is a fine line between support/feedback/discussion and enabling whiners and deflecting blame.

    I don't think Baseball, Mini, jenuno and I are a “team” that goes around beating up on the other posters. Actually I think jenuno is quite a bit friendlier than the rest of us. Don't hate because there are a few of us that will say “quit bitching, crack open the freaking book and actually read it” instead of “oh I know… its so hard. You'll get it next time!”. I can't speak for Baseball and Mini since I haven't been around that long, but I challenge you to find one post (maybe don't look too hard) where I was crappy to someone that was actually struggling for reasons other than being lazy. And FYI, Goodluck DOES NOT COUNT!

    Its a support forum for PASSING the CPA. Some of us support emotionally and some of us support the passing part.

    As for this thread- To start with “I'm an attention whore- and you're an asshole” is laughable (mostly the attention whore part, I have a feeling that Mini doesn't care that much), especially when Jeff just posted the other day to take stuff back to the exam threads. None of us are “moderating the board”- but when I'm looking at IT for BEC for 3 hours straight and by brain feels like its melting, I can't not take the bait on something like that. “I want attention… no wait… I don't… Well maybe I do. But only from people that want to give me a hug.”

    And if you all think I'm mean now- you should see my posts BEFORE I edit them and hit send. The amount of restraint I exercise at times is so impressive that I feel like I should get an award.

    @Mrs 300 – LOL. Where is my A71 wifey? Cosmo isnt giving me the attention I need right now.

    @Sandra – I was just messing around with Cosmo and Mrs 300. YOU are the only woman for me. Please dont leave after you pass BEC today. Good luck today!

    Disclaimer: Luck has nothing to do with passing the CPA Exam. I only said it because it was the socially proper thing to say.

    When Sandra calls me her evil minion, does anyone else think of the little yellow guys in Despicable Me? As long as you give me a kiss on the forehead before bed, I'll do anything you say, master!

    My point earlier was that it was Minimorty personally who elicited the rude response from CPApending. The two of them have a history. It wasn't Mini's post JUST from today that drove CPApending to say that.

    I guess that I understand your point about whiners on the board. I don't think CPApending was whining at all, but I'm sure that's not what you're referring to. My issue is this: what makes you think it's UP TO YOU guys to come down on people for being whiners? I'm not being a “hater.” But there is a group of people who act like they are employed by Jeff to “come down” on people or give them tough love.

    We can agree to disagree on Goodluck. I like him and you don't. End of story.

    And Mini – WTF? I get love for like 5 seconds and then you move on? That's BS!!!
