I took FAR yesterday

1st testlet was moderate, I did well on that, Second, was brutal, I guess abt 6-7 questions, Third testlet was ok, but I did minor mistakes few mcq's were very tricky and I believe I did wrong, I don't know this happens to me only or everyone makes mistakes like me

Simulations were ok , I nailed down 2 and rest 3 were may be 50% right
and 2 reserach questions, I believe 1 is correct and another one is surely wrong

This is my last section, Hope we all get passing marks

Keep in mind that NPO and Governmental will not be tested on the simulations (due to the fact that there's no respective authoritative literature available). So it would stand to reason that it they would make up about 33% of the MC to justify them being 20% of the total score.

Someone on this website posted that they received 3 Government Sims. There is only 1 pre-test sim so the other 2 (or 3) had to have been scored.

In discretion to not divulge the exam questions, let's just say I did not need to study those sections.

Is that really true? I heard that as of 2010, F8 & F9 is
fair game on SIMs?

They're fair game. The person is most likely behind the times.

For those of you who did Becker, were there items you felt Becker didn't
cover sufficiently?

I hope consolidations are on it, just for the sake I spent the last two weeks
re-learning consolidating entries and the various methods for subsidiary
accounting!

Thanks!
