@jstay was there topics you were surprised NOT to see?

[jstay]

ehh during the exam i never really think about it and just take whatever is thrown at me, but looking back actually yeah theres some (like almost a whole chapter) that wasnt on, that i thought would be on

as for Blaw, i actually had an “ok” amount – idk % wise but there was a few in there.

ughhhh i hope both of us are just getting psyched for no reason and see passing scores come the 27th

Those sims were brutal. I mean the topics weren't bad I just had no clue how to do them lol. I had a friend tell me yesterday, who cares if you don't pass just restudy and take it again no big deal. I wanted to punch her in the face! I go studying for 2 months and doing over 5,000 mcq and reading the Becker book almost 3x over is a big deal. Not including the fee of the exam. Yeah NBD!

@cpa8488 – I'm sorry to hear the exam was brutal. sounds like you really punched it out with your studying. I'll be hoping for the best for you.

Regarding your friend – ouch! Sounds like she'll never fully understand the effort you've put into the exam….I'd tell her to start her career over from scratch – that's how it would feel for me.

All the best – you're motivating me to stay on track!

@didato thanks! @sandia I know the exam plays with your mind that's the worst part. But at least the wait isn't to bad. It's mine and @jstay last exam we have no nothing else to study lol

[Anonymous]

ok amount of blaw?? I hope I get cpa8488's test

[Anonymous]

haha @anj! I'm sure they have many versions of the exam out their. I was just frustrated because their was so many topics that Becker emphasized, “heavily tested area” and I didn't even get asked a question on them. I spent yesterday going through the Becker book page by page lol. I know I sound crazy these exams have driven me to madness!

[Anonymous]

I am just kidding, although I am wondering how random those questions are, I mean does it detect areas you are weaker at and then gives you more of those in next testlet? That would suck

[Double-entry Deviant]

OMG – I'm watching Jeff's videos today on Property Transactions….I feel so fricking stupid! ;(

I'm hoping it makes more sense once I start doing MCQ's. It's been a while since I've studied this stuff- I think it'll kick in once I start!

@cpa8488 oh wow now that i think of it there was a “must know topic” and i didnt see any of it, i was kinda hoping i got a sim on it. now i wonder if i was ever in a hard testlet

[Anonymous]

I had quite a few of those “must know topics” that never showed up lol. But yeah they must've all been in the hard testlets. We're screwed! Ugh so annoying seriously…

[Anonymous]

Maybe I don't even remember and they were on their. I'm just loosing it the more I think about it lol

[Anonymous]

I was compulsively reading ninja mcq trending score vs actual exam thread after taking AUD even though I know what the odds are. I think I might have read all of it, it was kind of helpful. Are you guys doing it? Just me?

[Anonymous]

I did it for bec I was horrified of that exam. I hated all the topics- economic and cost accounting those variances gave me nightmares! I didn't do it for reg so what was the verdict? Lol I was trending at 82%. Last time I was trending between a 67-69% and got a 69 but I remember the sims weren't nearly as long/complex and I had 2 research questions.
