Just left the testing center at 10 PM. I woke up at 8 AM and I basically studied my butt off until 3 PM (watching lectures).

Anyways, exam wasn’t that bad. First testlet was moderate, second one was easier, third one was really difficult and I flagged 16 questions as I completely had no idea.

SIMS were easy because I literally had all answers from the LA word for word.

I think I passed. Not with a 95 but maybe a 75 or 80 because I think I didn’t do well on MCQs given that second testlet was easier.. I expected that because I did Becker MCQ for A1 only, and the rest of the chapters I only watched lectures.

I left 2 hours for the SIMS.

Testing center lady who knew me said bye to me and said “see you!” …. I said to myself “oh ma’am I hope I’ll never see you again…”

I must have bad luck. After the first testlet this exam was crazy. Even a question about *edit for exam disclosure* wasn't straightforward at all. And only 3 (including research) of my SIMS were in the literature. I dont see how *edit for exam disclosure* could be in the AL.

BEC - 10/05/15 - 83

AUD - 11/30/15 - 84

I think it's good luck if the testiest are getting harder according to what people say. The adjustments are pretty straight forward. The specific controls you can find them with examples in the AL.

Yeah, the adjustments seemed too easy, but I think if I hadn't taken FAR first, I would've had trouble.

I searched the AL for the controls, but couldn't find anything specific enough for the SIM I got. My BEC test felt very easy, and based on how I felt going in with this, I expected more of that experience than an experience similar to what I ran I to with FAR. at least the wait is only 9 days this time…

BEC - 10/05/15 - 83

i couldn't find any examples of controls in the AL. maybe i didnt look hard enough because i just didnt give a f by that point, late in the sims.

Another85:

The quote about the lady in the testing center was hilarious because I said the same thing. I hope you did well because you are a possible Elijah Watt award candidate!!!

FAR - 84
REG - 86
AUD - 90
BEC - 88

KO the test in 5 months even though I am a dummy!

Good for you another85! I'm glad you found the AL helpful. And regarding what you said about BEC you were absolutely correct- Coso coso coso (but they were all so vague that I have no clue as to whether I got them or not)
and now onto REG for me as my last section! Any advice on this one?
