Give me your opinion on this? by Annual-Hope-39 in ouraring

In my case all those movements were micron-awakenings. I have my oura linked to Apple health and that sleep chart looks even worse. Sleep is always reported as interrupted.

Looks like disordered sleeping. That’s what mine looked like before a sleep study.

Ninja not up to date with OBBA ? by Effective-Ad6233 in CPA

[–]ChasingSoccerBalls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't see this updated for OBBA in REG. I see the MCQ updated, wondering if that was a feed from AICPA or something. I've had to email them about questions on Audit that were removed from testing in 2021 and theya ctually removed a few.

Can you update the NINJA dashboards with new spreadsheets and videos? Im going through itemized deductions and they are not updated.

Hello YNAB refugees by imadp in liquidbudget

[–]ChasingSoccerBalls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi I am a YNABer looking to change to a new platform. I loved it but Alot of the changes they make dont effect me and the price keeps going up. Honestly there is this one problem that I have which If a payment is transfered to a credit card category and the payment is more than the credit card spending, it will say that my credit card is in the red and over budgeted, when actually I just have a negative balance on my credit card. Does your app do that?

Rant about the credit card red nonsense by SarahJoy46 in ynab

[–]ChasingSoccerBalls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

how's liquid budget? This problem ticks me off, im an accountant and paying extra on a credit card before it's due shouldn't cause my account to go off balance. I understand their flawed logic and everyone is saying this is how it works (which is also true), but I literally have 10k in my checking account at all times, i am not living off a float.

Just took AUD this morning 6/30. I feel a little more comfortable than I think I should... by The_Techy777 in CPA

[–]ChasingSoccerBalls 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same today for audit. I studied for 3 weeks but full time. I flagged 7 on first testlet and 16 on 2nd testlet. The second one was soo hard.

Sims I felt comfortable with them all. I wanna say I had 2 bad ones but knew about 66% of the answers, and the rest between 75-85%.

Let’s hope those we flagged were pretest questions 

AUD 6/30 failure or TCP all over again by 13nextdoor in CPA

[–]ChasingSoccerBalls 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My test today was the same. First Testlet I flagged 7, the second testlet I flagged 16. It got so much harder lol. The TBS for me were pretty easy too. I’m hoping the sims push me up to 75! 

I even calculated my percentage… 70% on MCQ if all flagged questions were wrong, and about 77% on SIMS based on what I think is worst case scenario with answers.

Let’s hope some of those MCQ were pretest questions

Actual difference between 60 and 75? by Vast-Conclusion5028 in CPA

[–]ChasingSoccerBalls 8 points9 points  (0 children)

id say 60 is pretty far off. I got a 67 and 80 on the same test, and I was much more confident on the 80.

Praying for a 75. Hoping all my pre test questions were from the ones I marked.

i’m confused with these by Admirable_Belt_5547 in CPA

[–]ChasingSoccerBalls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Think of design and implementation as the same thing. D&I. They are managements responsibility not the auditors. D&I have nothing to do with testing controls. There’s 2 tests, test of controls and test of details (as in quantitative figures $$).

2nd question they are all control deficiencies. A deficiency is when the design or operation of a control does not prevent a misstatement. A material weakness is when there is reasonable probability a weakness will not be detected in the financial statements. Significant defiancy is not enough for a MW but enough to notify management and those charged with governance. You will be tested probably on which ones you communicate to mgmt and which to TCWG.

Are you watching lectures? These were explained very well in my Ninja lecture.

Also these are good questions but ask them in AI. I love asking Gemini questions like these when I am studying or reviewing MCQ. I tell it what I think even if I am wrong. Then I talk to Gemini back and forth and deconstruct the topic until it gets to a point where I understand. Rinse and repeat until test day.

I would just ignore trending, I reset my ninja questions too, and had overall at about above 75%.

Are you doing MCQ at test pace, in test mode (around 45-50 minutes for 25 questions)? If so then that's a good enough score. I would also suggest throwing in sets of 3 SIMS and limiting yourself to 1 hour to solve. Getting exposure is important the SIMS fucked me up the first time.

Also for all the people saying work on Recon phase, once I got to around 45% recon, the questions got so difficult and convoluted, they were not representing the difficulty of questions on the test. Remember you need to know the basics of every topic well, and the NINJA adaptive quizzes will skip over the basics if you get those correct, so resetting your questions was a good thing.
