After taking the exam do most people feel that they put way too much pressure on the exam?

Is it actually "easier" than you thought?

At the moment I think I am stressing myself out for nothing...

I feel pretty confident I can answer (accuratly) most MCQ's not related to processing calculations...

 

One guy just said calculations are not that big a part of BEC anyways...

The pass rate for the sections of the CPA exam is in the 40 - 45 % range for 2011....I would say most people did not put anywhere near enough pressure on the exam.

That said, I passed the three sections I took on the first try, spent about 10 - 12 hours a week on study and used Becker.  I have not had an accounting class since 2009, I think if I took the tests right out of college I would have needed less study.
