For the Research SIMS database we get in the exam, is it the similar to the one that we have 6 month access to. I mean to ask whether it has the same search query feature or not?
I feel that is a game changer for Research SIMS!!

Not sure what 6 month access you're talking about but, yes, you can use the search function on the exam. It has advanced search, search within, etc. Take the AICPA practice test to see exactly what the search function offers.

Thank you!! I think NASBA provides 6- month access to the literature to who ever has scheduled the exam.

Do you know if these SIMS are partially graded or whether you needed to get all 4 parts (Topic, Subtopic, section, paragraph) to get any credit.

I don't think you get partial credit, but I did notice one of the AICPA sample tests had 2 possible correct answers for a research sim. It's worth spending the time to find the exact section referring to what the question asks. In my experience if you find something loosely related to the question but not exactly referring to what they asked then you haven't found the right section yet.
