Does anyone have a list of the non separately stated items for the k-1 box 1. I had a nice list but I can't find it for my records take coming up. Thanks! Jay

Hey guys! I take REG for the first time on Monday, and I cannot remember what the deal with the simulations is. Is there always a research simulation in the 6? I am hoping there is so I know I will get at least 1 100% correct. 😛 Thanks!!

[RE2PECT]

@WVUCPAHopeful- Yes there will be a research sim, but I wouldn't say it's a guarantee you'll find it. My research question was very specific and every keyword I tried wouldn't lead me to it. You should try and get familiar with the AL before the exam and don't assume it will be easy points. Nothing about REG sims are easy lol. Good luck tomorrow!

@RE2PECT- I am with you on that one. The research sims in FAR and AUD were so much easier, so I was a little bummed when practicing the REG research sims. I have been finding that if I have enough time, I have been able to find the right answer. Fingers crossed I am not racing the clock and can get the points.

Good luck to you as well!! I hope tomorrow is going to be a great day for everyone!

Could someone clarify Misc. Itemized deductions for me… For UNREIMBURSED, the employee deducts them to the extent they exceed 2% of AGI. An employee may always deduct reimbursed expenses if the employer includes them in their W2.
However, if the employer does not include them in the wages but the employee is reimbursed, then they are not deductible. Do I have this correct? My apologies for the wordiness.

Tomorrow shall be great for all of us!

I decree 😀

Good luck tomorrow @ re2pect. My experience yesterday was ok. I felt like I knew the material for the MCQ really well. Only marked about a total of 5 for all 3 testlets. SIMS were not has bad as they could have been. It took more time than I wanted to find the research answer. I'm hoping the off the wall out of left field SIM was a pretest question. Now waiting till March 8th.

REG - TBD

Hey all, I am here to practice. Besides that, anyone here know if Roger's question bank is good enough or not really?

[CPYay]

@RE2PECT

I have confidence in you! Pass this thing and celebrate.

@Porma

I supplement Roger with Ninja. Doing random sets on Ninja will result in seeing the same question quite often, so I do some random sets of Roger to balance it out and see new questions. It's helped tremendously.

So here's my experience from today. Mcq's were trickier than last time and not sure if I did as well on them as my first exam.
Couldn't really tell if they were getting harder, but it might be because I did like 4K Gleim mcq's that were harder than anything I've ever seen lol. There were a bunch that seemed simple, but they threw a couple curveballs that I've never come across.

The sims were at least on a few topics I was familiar with, but the format on a couple of them were very odd and I wasn't sure how to answer them. The research took me a while, but I'm hoping I got it right. Nothing would come up on any of the keywords I entered so I had to manually search it. At least I didn't put all 0's and not find the research like last time lol.

Not sure what to think, but I'm just glad it's over. I can see myself getting anywhere between a 70-80 depending on how the sims went and if I guessed some of the iffy mcq's correct.

Seems you did great @Re2pect

My experience was the opposite.. MCQ's were quite doable but my SIMS were totally brutal.

I guessed 100% on one and didn't have a reasoning behind my guesses.

Just trusting God for a miracle and a 75! That's all I need at this point

[RE2PECT]

@QueenCPA- You have no idea how you did until you get your score. I've never walked out of a Prometric feeling like I did well. Just pray we get good news on March 8th!
