I am taking the test tomorrow and feel so nervous. I studied so much and still worry that I may fail. How do you guys control your emotion before the testing day?

I'm on for REG tomorrow too. I'm nervous as well. I feel like I'm good on tax, not so much on business law.

Always have a glass or 2 of wine before bed! Then wake up early to review some last minute things, and take the test like its my damn job!

AUD: 98
REG: 91
BEC: 86
FAR: 83

DONE DONE DONE and DONE all on the first try! It IS possible, just keep on studying!

Ugh, REG is the worst! This is my last one and i have never been more stressed with test preparation. I feel like I don't know anything and my test is this weekend. The added pressure of potentially being done isn't helping much either. I will be very sad if I managed to pass the other 3 the first time and have to take REG more than once 🙁

FAR - 76
AUD - 97
BEC - 91
REG - FEB-16

It is nerve racking but as long as you focus on one question at a time then it will seem less daunting. Especially the SIMS because of the amount of information. It always makes more sense after you complete a question and them review it. Mainly because the nerves are gone so why worry in the first place. Good Luck!

Y'all will do great! Try not to get too anxious and think positive thoughts! One tip I learned from Roger too is on computation questions or SIMS, read the last sentence first. That helps you find the information you need in the rest of the problem. I also never flag questions. I read each of them twice fairly slowly so I don't get ahead of myself.

I think I passed, first testlet was easy, 2 was harder and 3 was harder than 2, I think I did well on sim,

BTW, I studied so much and I thought I am going to crush it, omg, it is not easy to do that. I def think I passed, but crushing it is so hard.

I am pretty sure I failed. I did horribly on the SIMs. Had two research…think I got them both but I assume two research means one is pre-test. I would have preferred if ANY of the other sims to have been thrown out instead.

I was also surprised that every single SIM required me to input numbers rather than select from a drop down list of choices or radio buttons; usually I have at least 1 or 2 like that.

I can never tell on the MC so I have no idea how those went.

@mastrocl, you never know, based on your other scores, you probably nailed it.
How did you get 97 and 91 on AUD and BEC? It is so hard to get the score that high. I studied so hard for REG and have work experience, but there is no way that I would get over 90 on REG.

@vanessachy,my feelings when I left REG were similar to the feeling I had when I left FAR (albeit, worse leaving REG), and as you can see, I barely passed FAR.

For me personally, I thought AUD was the easiest, because there weren't really many numbers or formulas to memorize, just concepts. I felt very comfortable during the rest and pretty good when I left, although the 97 was a nice surprise. Not that it even matters, no difference between a 75 and a 97! I wouldn't mind taking a few of those points away from AUD or BEC and adding them to the REG score I am afraid is coming!

I do have work experience, so that has helped me for some of the sections, but definitely not for REG or BEC.

I have followed the same process for all 4 sections – Becker self study, watch each lecture (don't take notes except within the book), and then do the MC and take notes on those as I answer each question. Review the notes and then do as many progress tests as I can and the 2 final exams before test day.

AUD - 97
BEC - 91

@mastrocl, it is your last test, let's have some faith

Honestly, I still feel worried. Without seeing the score, I still cannot stop thinking about the test
