So there were 4 questions within 2 diff’t SIMS that I was unsure of. With about 20 minutes left I was ready to call it a day and hit ‘end test.’ At the last second I remembered reading on this site that people had used the search function provided for research on all their SIMS. I immediately started searching away for the answers and with 2 minutes left as the timer was counting down, found the first two answers in 1 SIM and then with literally 30 seconds left, found the last 2 answers and filled them in as the exam expired.

Just received my score today and got a 76. Needless to say, without that help from the research tool, I would of failed. Moral of the story: use the research function when provided.

FAR 80
REG 76
AUD 85
BEC 85
Ethics 98
DONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hear hear! That's how I passed REG also. Got a “stronger” on my sims for the first time on any of my exams.

Congrats on your pass. 🙂

That's exactly what I did, and highly recommend it. Research tab in REG for the SIMs will save you..

AUD 81 (X4) Previous scores 59, 72, 72
REG 80 (X3) Previous scores 59, 60
FAR 75 (X2) Previous score 67
BEC 79 (X2) Previous score 58

How do you see your evaluation if you passed?

AUD - 88
FAR - 90
REG - 85
BEC - 88

I think some states provide the evals to everyone regardless of who passes and fails. My state is not one of them…

AUD | 85
REG | 77
FAR | 76
BEC | 83
========
ETH | 93
State Board Application pending!

Research helped with Audit Sims too.

@katiekanton – kaaCPA is correct. California provides the score report for all test takers, regardless of pass/fail.

FAR: 71, 77
BEC: 70, 82
AUD: 62, 78
REG: 71, 68, 85
