    I have a little over 2 weeks remaining until my Reg exam. When I take WTB practice sessions, with all topics selected, I sometimes get an uneven balance. For example, some seem to be 60-70% business law. Should I not worry about this and keep doing random questions or begin to narrow down based on exam percentages?

    REG - 82
    AUD - 97
    BEC - 81
    FAR - 84
    DONE!

    My last week I focused primarily on tax and ethics since that comprises 80% of the exam. Im not saying Blaw isn't important but if you already have a grasp at this point then its best to focus on the possible tax simulation topics. Also the ethics are easy points on the exam and i felt they were very similar to the old cpa exam questions.

    Thanks @bae-bae. I agree with that. I have a pretty strong hold on tax being more of a tax person but some of the more complex Blaw give me trouble.

    Also, what is yours or anyone else's stance on trying to memorize tax forms? WTB has a few SIMS that just have you line numbers of a K-1 or 6251 and ask you to complete. In my opinion, this is completely unrealistic, epecially with the 6251 as its 37 lines long! What do you think about memorizing these?

    It is definitely not worth your time to memorize tax forms. If you're worried about the SIMs, try and get faster at MCQ's so you have more time to spend on SIMs. Also, use the tax code on the SIMs if you get stuck on something, really helped me with one of the more bs ones haha.

    FAR 97
    REG 91
    AUD 5/30/14
    BEC 7/11/14
