I have taken this exam twice and got 88% both times. I have heard they give you 3 more attempts and have been told that the 3 new attempts are the same questions as the first 3. Does anyone have any guidance on this? I am super agitated.

Did you see the other post about taking the .pdf and doing the test 3 times, comparing your answers and choosing the best one? I am not sure what happens after the 3rd time, but I thought that study strategy was a good one.

Good luck!

Hey OP! I haven't seen you in a while. If you've taken it 3 times, you can call to ask for a complimentary 3 more tries. I would save those previous PDFs you've had and print out the 3rd test. I would honestly, go through every single one carefully (even looking through each choice). Then, go through each question again carefully. I'm pretty sure I clocked at least 6 hours for my second try. The answer IS IN the book, trust. It's just the way it's worded.

It took me 3 times to pass it too. The 3rd one was the easiest. You will pass it for sure.

Thanks for the responses.

Hi hasy! I finished the exams in august and then started working in public. I check in and read stuff but a combination of being busy and irrelevant has made me MIA, lol.

I am going on to my third attempt. There was an error that didn't allow me to get the results of my fist exam. I got the results of my second exam and now have the information to pass if I were to get that exam again. That is why I was wondering if it was the same tests or not.

@ultrarunner – I hope so! This exam is so aversive.

@MaLoTu My buddy failed 3 times, then just called CalCPA and they let him keep taking it online until he passed. Just give them a call if you don't pass the 3rd time. Good luck!
