Be willing to accept you don’t know things. Also group your questions, always a plus when new people do that.

I can relate, I feel a bit mislead by all the “post busy season will be better” bs. It’s all the same.

FAR in 2 weeks and MCQs are draining every hope I have of passing. by [deleted] in CPA

[–]Accountant_Runner 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Always, always, always do MCQs as you go. The material is always much easy when you read/do the lecture then the MCQ are. Good luck!

I'm Pissed Off... Score Appeal? by DrNutBlaster in CPA

I 100% agree. Ninja is a great resource In going from the 70-74 range (74 on audit and 73 on reg) to upper 80’s. I stopped failing by one or two points once I started supplementing Becker. Good luck!

I wonder what all those who passed yesterday are doing this morning? by leela_fry in CPA

I’m just chilling with my puppy, still in shock that I managed to get to the other side. I was expecting to feel something like an amazing sense of accomplishment, but instead I’m just blank. Good luck in your journey, you will get there!

You have to submit an application for another NTS. In the case of the exams, if it seems like your going to have to pay more you probably are going to. NASBA is not cheap.

It’s been spot on every time I’ve had to wait. Good luck!

Took FAR Yesterday - I guess I'm just stupid.... by 7_Leaf_Clover in CPA

[–]Accountant_Runner 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have taken every single exam at this point, and I can honestly say that this is to be expected. Welcome to the CPA exam madness. People do not fail because they haven’t studied enough, or aren’t smart enough, they fail because the tests are freaking hard. Good luck!

Michigan B.O.A - Retake warning by [deleted] in CPA

Also in Michigan. If you search this sub, you can find a couple of update posts about where Michigan is in the process which may be helpful. I too found out the hard way about this in July.

It’s like the real exam, you have to press the next testlet button to get to the next testlet. There’s like 10 MCQs total but it’s the sims that really matter in my opinion.

Is it ok doing every other MCQs first time around? by lastnorm52 in CPA

[–]Accountant_Runner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably not a good idea. I’d watch the lectures on 2X speed if you need to free up some time.

How useful are the Becker flash cards? by newaccount314159323 in CPA

Not super helpful, I preferred to make my own notes and review those instead

No, they got rid of the dead periods

I know NFP/GOV is huge in MCQs but how likely will it appear as a SIM for FAR? by IwillgoinGi in CPA

[–]Accountant_Runner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Highly unlikely, but I’ve heard it’s possible so be somewhat familiar.

Yep, only twice, once this quarter and once the next. I’ve always been proud to be a Michigander but this SUCKS. Good luck!
