    Is the exam getting easier? They are also going to allow continuous testing. I wonder if there wasn't enough people passing the exam.

    People are better-prepared is my hypothesis.

    Time for the AICPA to throw in more curve balls. Too many people are passing

    My hypothesis – Q1 has a lot more retakes than other quarters.
    Also, they made the exam too easy for Q1, the next couple quarters will have to be harder to bring the average back down.

    BEC was easy, FAR was absolutely brutal so it's hard to deduce much of anything from these numbers.

    HARDER!!!!! OH LORD. I think it will average out by the time I pass. I guess they include the retakes in the average too. I definitely, agree with Jeff, many are going in well prepared. No more blind dates (lol)

    It begins with a 75
    Been here too long as a cheerleader....ready to pass

    @ Thunderlips lol man, its only REG N BEC so people shouldn't be worried about how the pass rates are high. If it were FAR n AUD, then maybe right?

    REG and especially BEC have been trending up for years, so no real surprise.
