    I'll be taking REG sometime in the beginning of January. Studying the C Corp info now through Becker review. I was glad to see my passing AUD score this morning, it has given me a boost I needed to keep studying. This weekend was a waste for studying; was too nervous waiting for my score!

    BEC - 75 (expires 9/30/15)
    AUD - Fail, 78
    REG - 80
    FAR - May 2015

    Scheduled for 1/4/15 re-take from November, 2014… scored 72. I am using Becker and I picked up the Ninja notes and the MCQ. looks like I scored weak in the SIMS and Bus Law, Plan to go through all chapters MCQ's and then spend the two weeks before the exam on any SIM I can find… Any other suggestions?

    General Question on the SIMS: If there is no answer should you always enter “0”, should you always round up, and if the number is negative should you always enter with brackets. Doing a Sims in Reg 4 Becker first set of SIMS Ques 3, the SIM asks if its a CAP Gain or Loss, then you need to calculate the result, To get full credit if its a Loss of 82K, should I enter it as (82000), if there is no/Gain or Loss (which there wasn't in this question) would I enter “0”.. Thoughts, experiences?

    The instructions on the real exam are very clear. The first thing I did was go through all the SIMS and put zeroes in every slot so that if I ran out of time there would at least be a zero there, which could very well be the answer. Then I went back and started working them out and changing the answers to what they should be. My instructions said to round, no decimals. And you use a minus sign for negative amounts. be careful with that. One problem actually said to make every amount as a positive number even if it naturally would have been a negative. Just read the directions and follow them and you should be fine. Also, use the AL for every single SIM, not just the research ones. It will help you, trust me.

    I honestly don't remember. The MCQ were so awful for me that I can't even remember how much of it was blaw versus taxes.

    AUD (08/24/13) 65 (11/13/13) 85

    REG (07/19/14) 69 (11/29/14) 87!!

    I see, I just hope I don't get any of the paragraph long BLaw questions. I also don't know how much time I should leave for the simulations. It took me over 2 hours to finish the simulations for both Audit and FAR.
