@Icanhazcpa FAR and REG are very different and you just went through the section that has the most material to know for the CPA exam test. Give yourself a break! Besides, there are some of us here who are willing to help where our strengths are. Take a day off, go do something completely different and re-energize yourself!! REG is kind of funky anyway, just make sure you have the updated material from Becker. (Especially for the book amounts). You can do this… You can do this… You can do this…
@Mhollingsworth If they would have let me take REG again in one window, I would have!!! Unfortunately, my first exam expired on March 16 (why they had it expire in a closed window period, I have no clue). So I studied for 3 weeks and sat for the exam. Made a 71. Was stronger in everything on my m/c except taxation of entities (weak) and Federal Tax Process (comparable). I was also weak on the simulation (which I knew, it kicked my butt). My second exam, I studied in great detail in my weak areas and took to learning the sections of the tax code – not the numbers, but where I could easily find the topics. If you look at the layout, its not intuitive. I wanted to extend the exam by one week and was advised not to, so I took it and panicked. I did well on the simulation and was all over the place on m/c – makes sense since I was so anxious and m/c was the first part. That was a 74. I know now that I could have passed that exam if I could have calmed my nerves. But that's just how it goes! Now I get to kill it this month!! 🙂
