Honestly, I think just taking your time and working the simulations in your study materials will suffice. I probably went through each simulation in my Bisk material once, but I worked the multiple choice problems in the program twice (maybe 3 or 4 times in my weaker areas). The Bisk program included great simulations, but I just didnt review those in enough detail as I did the multiple choice. You just have to make sure you really understand the concepts. I was pretty confident when I finished the MCQs and almost cried when I got to the simulations lol

Hi kia-b2008

I am confused with the simulations.

My question is the following, when they ask a research question is that considered one simulation or is it part of a simulation which has a few parts and one section of it is the research part of the simulation?

The research question is considered one simulation. You go through the FASB Codification to determine the answer to the problem asked. Some simulations do include a reaserch tab where you can refer to the authoritatve literature if needed though.

Hi,

Is anyone else noticing that the last 2 weeks of Nov there is no testing?  My center is busy so I don't know if they are really already filled up or just taking extra days off for the holiday.  I looked like 3 weeks ago and it was the same thing.

Thanks
