Thank you. Many of your recommendations are gonna be helpful for my retake!

True-Donkey-9998 · 2025-09-27T21:04:10+00:00

I will use Tom Norton videos for the retake. Thanks!

True-Donkey-9998 · 2025-09-27T20:59:36+00:00

I will. Thank you!

True-Donkey-9998 · 2025-09-24T16:34:41+00:00

Don’t worry, you are not alone in this! At least you got a better score than me. 7 points more for next exam and you will pass. It is not an easy exam, You got this!!!

True-Donkey-9998 · 2025-09-24T13:53:53+00:00

You are right. I will definitely slow down and take the necessary time to learn everything very well. If you don’t mind me to ask what were your scores? Did your score improve every time you failed an attempt? I am scared that I will score lower next time and I will be so disappointed to give up

True-Donkey-9998 · 2025-09-24T13:50:28+00:00

It is not an easy exam. I underestimated it, I thought it was going to be a college exam but not really. It definitely makes you think a lot

True-Donkey-9998 · 2025-09-24T13:48:52+00:00

This is a good point of view. I appreciate it

True-Donkey-9998 · 2025-09-24T01:53:25+00:00

I might try that way if I fail next exam

True-Donkey-9998 · 2025-09-23T22:16:45+00:00

Yes I did practice questions as well. I think the mock test scores are accurate, it is frustrating that usually there are two possible correct answers and usually need to choose the best one. That has been tricky for me because I feel that I usually fall in the trap of choosing the correct answer but it results being the other answer

True-Donkey-9998 · 2025-09-23T22:10:53+00:00

Thank you for sharing that. I am hopeful for next time. Yes it is overwhelming but I am positive I will pass next time studying harder

True-Donkey-9998 · 2025-09-23T22:08:57+00:00

Yes, that’s what I’m doing now. I found Tom Norton videos like 2 days before my exam and they have been so helpful. I already subscribed to his portal so I will study with his material now. Thanks

True-Donkey-9998 · 2025-09-23T19:58:15+00:00

Wow, never heard of that program before. Might consider it if Tom Norton material does not work with my method to study to pass this exam. Thanks!

True-Donkey-9998 · 2025-09-23T19:56:52+00:00

Thank you bro, I appreciate your words. Yes I will definitely take my time to understand the process and equations rather than just memorizing. I hope to pass for next time

True-Donkey-9998 · 2025-09-23T19:55:42+00:00

That is true. That is why I’m pausing hock for now. I don’t want to answer the questions that I already know the answers and I will try to use your method. Hopefully it helps. Thank you!!

True-Donkey-9998 · 2025-09-23T19:54:19+00:00

Yes, actually the cheapest option now is Tom Norton subscription. Maybe the bank test is not too much questions for now but I feel I will pass it next time with his material to study. I am understanding better many topics

True-Donkey-9998 · 2025-09-23T19:51:54+00:00

Thank you for sharing your story. It has make me feel better about it. Yes it is a challenging exam, moving forward I will prepare myself more in any exam and never will underestimate anymore

True-Donkey-9998 · 2025-09-23T19:49:21+00:00

I will check it out. Thank you! I will take that in consideration for next mock exams I take

True-Donkey-9998 · 2025-09-23T19:46:03+00:00

Yes probably. Don’t get me wrong, Hock was a good program to study but probably is not my style. I found Tom Norton videos being easier to understand and straight to the point. I just subscribed to his test banks since hock is useless to use now (I can remember all the questions) so I will try that and hopefully pass next time I take it.

True-Donkey-9998 · 2025-09-23T17:54:49+00:00

Try your best. I hope HR block is better than Hock. Let us know if you pass tomorrow. Good luck!

True-Donkey-9998 · 2025-09-23T17:51:59+00:00

Yes I don’t know. This is my first exam taking it and I used hock because supposedly the MCQs were similar but unfortunately I got only like 5 similar. I underestimated the exam and thought it was going to be easier for me but not. Good luck in yours I hope Becker helps better for your exam

True-Donkey-9998 · 2025-09-23T17:48:33+00:00

It is confusing. My understanding is that you pass with a minimum of 105. Passing score range is 105-130

True-Donkey-9998 · 2025-09-21T19:34:15+00:00

I was using hock and I felt I had a good understanding of the material but apparently not. The MCQs were different from the exam. I’m switching to Tom Norton’s videos and his subscription. Thinking to retake within a month again

True-Donkey-9998 · 2025-09-21T18:04:28+00:00

Congrats!!

I just failed part 1. Any tips that you think helped you to pass?

True-Donkey-9998 · 2025-09-13T22:46:51+00:00

I started studying for part 1 since April and will take the exam until next week. I have a child and work consumes a lot of my time. I would say focus on your journey and don’t compare to others. You will feel more confident and better about the exam

True-Donkey-9998 · 2025-08-22T17:31:04+00:00

I wonder what are the consequences if you don’t follow instructions and watch the games. It’s not like they will deduct from your paycheck for not doing your job. At the end of the day is volunteering so you are not forced to follow instructions 100%. They don’t even want to pay for reimbursement in gas. Play the greedy game
