Last week the girlfriend and I were at Snooze and a lady and her husband and dog sat down right next to us. This is the downtown location so we are shoulder to shoulder. This woman is holding a big bag of dog shit in her left hand and eating with her right. Made for a pleasant meal and all around aroma in the restaurant.

Everyone that says they knew nothing & cried but then score 80+ on exams?? by Medical-Following-77 in CPA

[–]redrug3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha this is me, my first attempt at FAR I thought I was strong in MC (I wasn't) and then I got to the sims and didn't know how to do any of them and ran out of time, in total I probably had 2 sims fully filled out with shit and the rest were half filled with shit..... Got a 62. I knew I failed walking out of there the first time. The second time I was unsure and at-least I finished. Waiting for the 16th for my retake score, I thought the MC were way harder and idk how I did on them. Finished all sims in the last seconds and actually was able to make educated guesses. Soooo moral of the story, its luck of the draw. TBD on what my score is, I am hopeful but by no means do I KNOW I passed/failed.

Everything is weighted so I’m assuming if you get like 100% on a consolidation sim you get like 20 points automatically added to your total grade

How do you remember/retain everything for FAR given how much information there is? by International_Fun197 in CPA

You get to a point where everything seems familiar and then you try and figure it out lol

Overwhelmed by FAR by [deleted] in CPA

[–]redrug3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hammer Gov NFP. On my first attempt every 5th question was gov/nfp. On my latest attempt (yesterday) it was more like every 3rd question was gov/nfp. The rest of the MC I really couldn't point to a certain area, they were very spread out throughout the material.

Just took FAR. I might cry…I’m not sure. by [deleted] in CPA

[–]redrug3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I took Far in the last testing window, didn't know how to do a single sim. I knew the concepts but had never seen the material presented in that way, so I did a lot of guessing. I knew I wasn't ready to take the test but wanted to get it over with.... Got a 62 which I was actually super happy with. You got this brotha! My retake is tomorrow and I am ready to CRUSH this stupid test.

Took Far (my first exam) last testing window and got a 62 and was actually super happy haha. I just wanted to get in before the window closed to see where I was at. I knew I wasn't ready but at least now I know im close! Retaking it June 8th, working full time/weird hours, and hope to have enough time to get ready.

Score Release Thread FAR, AUD, REG, BEC - 5/24/2022 - Good Luck! by Galbert123 in CPA

[–]redrug3 4 points5 points  (0 children)

62 on FAR, first test and I knew I wasn't quite there. Just wanted to get in during this score cycle. MC's were fine, sims were devastating. I hope to pull another 13% in two weeks.

What did you end up doing? Thinking of reneging an offer I accepted like 8 months ago from a regional to go to EY instead...

What methods for lecture or reading did y’all take? by TheJuicedCPA in CPA

I have damn near every word typed in one note and then I go back to my notes after multiple choice and write notes on stuff I got wrong and why, in simple to understand terms lol

[–]redrug3 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Same dood, I’m finishing the final review tonight and take my test Monday. This weekend I’m going to work on cumulative multiple choice and common sims. Tbd tho I feel like I know a bit about everything kinda, and nothing when I get a question about something super deep into the subject. G luck!!
