eddie500,

you already passed 3 section of the CPA. And, it seems that you overprepared for the exam. So I wonder, if  you used Wiley books only? or did study some other materials. Thanks!

Any suggestions for better perparing simulations?   I failed FARE by 3 points and the result was strong at MCQ but weak at simulations that bought me to failing grade.   I use Becker only.  It seems that Becker does not have enoungh simulations for practice.... 

 

Thanks!

I am really new on this forum. I am trying to find out best way to study for CPA exam.

I am just starting reading Molude 1 in Wiley text book for FARE exam. But it's so difficult for me to remember. Do you have any best way to recommend me how to study from the text book?

Thanks!

7 despite what people say...it is tuff and alot to remember I struggled with that chapter until i started to get a feel of how to study.  What I did with that module was just read the text over and over again until I got it, and made sure I read all of the Concepts, statements, and bullitens associatied with the 4 subsections.  Once I was done with that I would do about 15% of random questions, read the answers figure out why and where I went wrong, and do another 15%, same thing and eventually I just went trhough 1 -70 on the questions.

You have to realize that this section will be difficult despite being a reveiw because you are probaly still be exposed to alot that you didn't learn, or learn to this exent. spend atleast a week and half on this section and supplement the material with gliem MCQs.

The only way you are going to learn everything you need to know is reps after reps after reps.  You can't memorize things for this section you have to KNOW what to do.
