Just for fun: For those of you that have completed the exam, what is you GPA and what is the total number of times you sat for the exam before passing that fourth and final section? Include all fails, expirations and passes in the number of attempts.

3.36 here and I failed one section once, so my total attempts is 5.

undergrad 3.2, grad 3.9.

8 attempts- had I had quality review material, would have succeeded on first attempt.

There are too may factors. Devry/Becker offers a Masters program and my friend just finished with a 3.9 GPA. Where did he get his Masters again>?

Had a 3.2 overall and about a 2.4 accounting GPA in undergrad due to never studying, not caring, etc. I've made it through these exams just fine regardless of that poor major GPA.

BEC: 88 (8/27/13)
FAR: 93 (12/3/13)
REG: 92 (2/27/14)
AUD: 95 (4/22/14)

The CPA exam is so much more difficult to pass compared to getting straight A's in college, in my experience. In college, you're learning one subject at a time and you're tested on one subject at a time. The CPA exam just combines everything and then some into four exams which is entirely different to prepare for.

My GPA was 3.3 and I managed to go 4/4. I don't think there will be much of a trend noted between GPA and attempts there are too many other factors. For just over half of a year any time that I was not working I was studying, many people have kids or other responsibilities that take priority over studying.
