well, if you are confident that you did 3.5 well then it's a good sign.
One research question was not hard, but second one i was having so hard finding an answer and even in the end i don't think i got the right answer. I am trying not to think about it anymore .. when the results coming out?

If i don't pass this one, i am giving up CPA ( even though i don't like this word " give up" ) ... but i dunno what else to do ... studying non stop for weeks put a heavy toll on your health.. I feel this exam is aging me faster.. oh GOD, i just feel like ranting.. Atleast you guys can feel the pain... my friends think i am dumb and why can't i pass a simple exam? i guess they are not in my shoes

Khan,

Wait until your score comes out, then rant :) ,,,, So Beckers SIMS are nowhere near the actual SIMS on the exam? How about the MC's, Do you think Beckers material is indicative of the MC's on the exam??? An what did you score the last time you took FAR and what did you do different this time?? People pass & fail this exam everyday.... Its not impossible....

I'm scheduled for Apr 27th,,, and right now, I feel like i'm nowhere near ready but i'm going to try anyway, and if I fail, i'll have an idea as to where I'm weak at and go from there.....

@ Khan - I completely understand what you're going through...I took this
exam twice before (started my studies for it in July, fml) and the 2nd time I
received a 74 (like really?)...You just got to stay with it...I agree with you
about the research questions, the 1st one was easy and the 2nd one took
time to find and like you said, I too wasn't so confident I got it correct esp.
when my answer consisted of just 1 line. One of the Sims, I know I bombed
and another Sim was the SAME EXACT Sim I had the last time I took it
although even studying it afterwards, I still couldn't get it fully correct
because it was so detailed and the study materials do not cover every in and
out (hoping partial credit of course)...Btw we should see results around May
7th

@ pass.or.die.try - Becker's MCQ's are great and do prepare you for the test.
Similar difficulty in my opinion. Like I said before, Becker Sims are
elementary compared to the actual ones you get on the exam. When you can
breeze through a Becker Sim. in roughly 5 minutes or less, that is not good
(unless you find this material easy) aka not a good indication of what you will
see on the actual test...Leave yourself enough time to do the Sims aka 1hr
30min - 2hrs. I'd say....1st time I took FAR, I got a 61, which was back in
Oct....2nd time I took it was end of Feb. and got a 74....3rd lucks a charm?

Oh while i am on ranting spree, I bought three colognes from two different sellers, they all turned out to be FAKE!... I live in Canada, on my way back to Canada after prometric site, i stopped by Duty free shop, and smelled the real jean Paul Lemale and issey miyake and lacoste sport, mine doesn't smell the same.. Now the seller wants me to send the colognes back so he can refund me .. and i ahve to pay for shipping... aghhh... I guess only honest people left are in this forum... :)

sorry about my cologne ranting.. serious ppl in this forum must be saying WTF, ok i will stop now
