What exam topic keeps you awake at night? Basis Calculation & AMT

One study or career tip others might find helpful. – Breaking up study sessions for shorter period and solving 33 questions in one shot. Mediation for focus!! It really helps!!

When are you taking your exam? I am taking my exam next month! July 23.

What exam topic keeps you awake at night? BUSINESS LAW

One study or career tip others might find helpful. Study in the morning. Read the text before watching the lectures. Pay attention to the topics highlighted in the lecture. Try to reference back to lectures as you do multiple choice questions. Do the multiple choice questions three times. First round, indicate which areas you did not completely grasp. Second round, go over the multiple choice questions you got wrong. Third round, do all of the multiple choice questions over again. Also, this tip is strictly for taking the exam. I try to find patterns in the questions. The key is to understand all the material as well as applying what you learned in text/lecture to the questions asked.

What exam topic keeps you awake at night? Individual Taxation

One study or career tip others might find helpful. For MCQ when studying, take time to understand the answer to questions in full instead of just reading over the answer and moving on to the next question.

When are you taking your exam? I am taking my exam July 27

What exam topic keeps you awake at night? those darn employee stock options. No matter how hard I try I just can't get all the rules to stick.

One study or career tip others might find helpful: While studying I set goals and give myself a small reward for each milestone. For example, if I stay on track on complete a certain number of modules and multiple questions. Then I will treat myself to a movie night or have a glass of wine or even my clothes or something.

To Those who took REG in Q2, what were the topics the simulations Covered? Thanks!

[Anonymous]

@kellymarie126 to stay in compliance with AICPA exam disclosure rules, nobody should disclose specific content on their exam. Also, you shouldn't solicit specific content either in the future. (:

[kellymarie126]

For those of you that have taken REG during Q2, what kind of topics did your simulations cover?? Thanks!

[kellymarie126]

Oh -sorry!! this is my first time go-around and I just figured since each test is always new questions/simulations there was nothing wrong asking! Thanks for making me aware of that!

@Chandler Thanks for your help in clarifying this! I think they got conflicting answers for the same question because they have different underlying assumptions then.

By the way, your REG score is so impressive~
