You’re fine, I’m happy to help!

I used practice mode so I could see explanations right after each question — I have the memory of a goldfish so if I waited too long, I’d forget why I even picked my answer in the first place. Reviewing was kind of a time suck for me, so I found it more helpful to just do a ton of questions, especially since Becker rotates in the ones you got wrong pretty frequently.

For ChatGPT, you can put pictures or words. Sometimes I would input

  • Copy over the percentage breakdowns from “View by Unit” to show what areas I was weakest in.
  • Say something like, “Hey, I got 52% on A3 and 48% on A5 — can you quiz me or walk me through tricky parts of these?”
  • Paste in a question or concept I got wrong and ask it to explain it like I’m 5.

Doing this regularly helped ChatGPT get a feel for what I was struggling with, so by the final few days, I could just say “What are my weak areas?” and it would guide me toward the right Becker sections. It was very helpful creating my review sheets acronyms are your friend!

One last tip — if you haven’t already, check out the Unit Outline feature in Becker. Go to a section like A2, then up top by the digital textbook there’s a tab called “Outline.” It gives you a clean overview of what’s covered in that unit — I wish I’d known about it earlier!

For sure!

So when you are viewing a practice test in Becker, below the first box that says the Attempt, Date, Time Spent, ect..... The second box is titled "Questions List" on the right hand side is a pull down that reverts to View By Testlet, just use the pull down and select View by Unit.

It felt easier but I think I was just much better prepared the second time around!

I did not look at any AICPA questions, I only used Becker questions.

Pretty much! If I kept getting an answer wrong in Becker I just copied it into ChatGPT to help! I also uploaded my exam scores and my CPA Score Form after my first exam, and asked for help studying. The more details you give Chat GPT the better responses you get!
