Kevin,

do your MCQ over and over and over again until you hurl tomorrow. Don't do SIMS on practicing. The MCQ will carry you through the SIMS.

try to stay calm about it. I can say i flipped out the day before and had to call Yaeger hotline and Phil calmed me down.

It is a tough test, but you do KNOW this information enough to get you through.

when you get to the SIMS go right to the written communication first.

save the research for VERY last, its worth only 1 point.

good luck.

I've been preparing for a long time due to family circumstances, and the closer to the exam, the less prepared I feel.

I took Gleim practice CPA exam, and results were 90% on MCQ and 76% on simulations. After that, I bought Gleim simulation software ( I don't like it much). It got me confuse even further. Sometimes, I spend too much time trying to figure out what they are asking about, and do a lot of silly mistakes.

For communication part, if I know the material I'm doing OK. If I don't, it takes me some time to come up with something.

I believe that you cannot pass the exam only based on MCQ. We need to do something on simulations. So, I'm worried that I may get confused and blow this part.

I know to start from written communication first.
I would like to hear more tips from those who passed the exam how to handle simulations. Also, maybe somebody can tell how they improve simulation skills.

The only advices that I see is that don't pay too much attention to simulations, just master MCQ.
