Oh ok! I don't remember what my sims were, but I think they can ask on tax forms. I used the research tabs a lot for the sims when I wasn't so sure what to do, it can be a real help.

@ Acct – Thanks again! I haven't done any sims yet coz I'm still doing MCQs, hopefully i will find time to do some before Wed. Best of luck on your other exams if you any and your exam scores on the ones you did!

@TX , I wouldn't expect to see tax forms on the actual exam, if you do you're lucky because they are generally simple to fill out! Be prepared for some crazy formats, but do not panic! Usually questions with phase out amounts are typically either way below the minimum threshold or they exceed the maximum by a lot, where it's almost obvious. Good luck!! Kill the beast!

I just took the exam…..horrible, extremely difficult, confusing, subtle, small details….ugggghhhhh…..SIMS were brutal too (borderline on ridiculous)

Thanks Tx! I'm taking BEC this Wednesday so I'll be waiting on that and REG…

Again, good luck!

[Tx]

@ peanut – thanks for sharing your thoughts! REG is by far the exam that I'm most anxious about next to FAR. I'm just really hoping to pass. Good luck on your exams!

@eartzi, I know!!!!

@Tx, I got a mcq wrong because I forgot the phaseout, so yes, all fair in love and CPA.

@minimorty, best of luck tomorrow. Let us know what you think.

[Minimorty]

thanks, Allyson. I'm not taking it until 5 pm Pacific time, but I'll be sure to report back after.

Anyone using Becker that already has taken REG during the current testing window….

Are the sims a lot harder than what appears on Becker? All this talk about how hard the sims are scaring me. what is the best prep for these? First time taking REG on Wednesday.

HI Lynn

yes i did used becker, and simulations are not so hard as people say, and i gave my exam today and make sure that you understand all topics, your basics should be strong and just keep one thing in mind, dont expect what you expect, expect what you dont expect. I hope this gives you message, and why people are complaining about this is because they are assuming what can be tested and what cannot be tested and if that particular items are not tested they are upset, so my adivse be strong in conceptual understanding an dont leave any topic every topic is equally important, and yes if you used becker you should not have any issues

all the best thanks 1!

@lynn

I have to disagree with asimnihaz about the REG SIMS. There are some people who get exams with SIMS that are tough but covered in the Becker material. Many, many others, though, see at least 1 or 2 SIMS that are on very obscure topics not covered in any review material. I'm not trying to scare you but be sure to allow plenty of time for the SIMS in case you get questions like this. While not a guarantee of success, having time to use the research tabs gives you a shot.

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

@Allyson

You had to know the phase-out amount? I guess I take back what I said then… I thought in the review programs it said you didn't need to know it. Oh well.

[Anonymous]

Becker does not cover Property transaction. However it is coverd in whiley. Does anyone know if it's tested
