Hello,

My biggest weakness are SIMS (Failed FAR 4 times MCQ Strong, SIMS Weak). I’ve heard that the SIMS are a rephrased version in scenarios of the MCQ and that’s why you should practice mcq as much as you can. But I don’t know how to effectively get through SIMS, really. I got stuck, cant think, and eventually get mentally exhausted to even rethink again.

I read that Yaeger integrated cross-reference practice scenarios with blueprints. It specifically say “blueprint” as is straight out of blueprints. Am I correct?

Has anyone tested this Yaeger method or other study material that does good in focusing on blueprints?

Search blueprints on this forum. There are many topic threads about it. It does work and it's how I passed.

BEC = 72 (6/08/16)
FAR = ?
REG = ?
AUD = ?

Yes the yaeger book uses blueprints as headings.

There’s a blueprint, and then the subchapter that follows is the detail information for the blueprint.

I like the yaeger books a lot for this reason.

@tmacpa34 Are you using yeager to conquer far sims?

@Lola23: I am also in the process of applying blueprints while studying & want to know how to use the study materials effectively.

There is a webcast ‘Get to know the CPA Exam Blueprints' hosted by AICPA on 3/27/2018. Following is the link to register.
