I finished the exam with over an hour and a half left. While taking the exam, I noticed that my questions weren’t getting any harder as i progressed through the testlets. Also, the Simulations weren’t too bad. I walked out of prometric this time way feeling much more confident as opposed to the FAR exam. Should i be concerned? Overall, i though the exam was easy. Anyone on the forum have a similar experience to mine (and has good news)?

FAR- 86

AUD- 11/23/15

BEC- TBD

REG- TBD

86 on FAR is a strong score, so I presume you study well and retain the information. This means your confidence may be a good sign. However, as everyone is different, I cannot say what you should expect.

As to your exam experience, I had a similar one with FAR, finished an hour early, and scored higher than I could have imagined. However, I was not as confident leaving the exam as with others.

I'm taking AUD in 3 hours, so I'm hoping we end up with a similar experience: a confident pass.

REG (2/2015) - 89
BEC (4/2015) - 95
FAR (8/2015) - 95
AUD (11/2015) - 98

@JSPERBER – I had the EXACT same exam experience for Audit, I took it back on the 9th. I'm completely freaked out because the testlets didn't get any tougher (although I still felt somewhat in control) and I thought the SIMs weren't too bad either. I get my score tomorrow, I'll try to remember to post it on here and hopefully its good news!

FAR - 80

My testlets went medium – super hard – medium. I think that's worse than not noticing a change.

If you notice no change, you probably did really well. At least that's what I usually see from people on this forum that say they couldn't tell which way the difficulty went.

It still baffles me how some fly through these tests with over an hour left, or hell, even with 30 min left…lol!

I had the same experience! I took it this morning and finished in an hour and a half! I may be a fast test taker, but REG took me 2 hours.

I feel really well prepared. I didn't notice a change in the testlets. I think it might have been Med/Hard/Hard but who really knows…

The TBS weren't bad either.

Its kinda freaking me out, I like being confident, but if I fail I'll feel really silly….

REG -73 (8/2015) 81 (10/2015)
AUD - 73 (11/2015) 84 (1/2016)
BEC - 84 (2/2016)
FAR - 77 (6/2016)
