I just got my FAR score back and got a 75.  I am estatic, but I can't help but wonder how.

I did the Becker review program, but when I took the test I felt like half of it was on consolidations and non profit/gov accounting, my worst areas.  Hell even on my Becker homework I was averaging 60% at best.  A little better in leases and I/S but worse in Non Profit and Consolidations.

I really felt that I got maybe 50% of the MC correct on the exam and only did well on the Memos and research parts of the simulations.  For the rest of the tabs I just randomly inserted the auto fill answers hoping to get lucky.  Obvioulsy I did, or God himself came down and changed my grade before nasba got it. 

I just don't get it because on Audit I scored a 79 and feel like I got nearly all the MC right and did roughly the same on the simulations.  I am happy I passed but I was shocked how the grades came back.  I was expecting a huge gap between my AUD and FAR score considering how I felt walking out of each exam.

I've heard a few different things about the scaling, mostly, " MC is the most important part."  It just doesn't make sense to me.  Anyone have any insight on this.

Is FAR scaled to the hilt and Audit not?

Hey, you're me!!!

I had the EXACT same experience.  I actually gave up on this sitting becuase i did not get the 2 weeks off from work as planned.   It was too late to change the date so i just ended up playing Starcraft2 and took the exam just to see what it was like for next time.  I was guessing left and right...but I felt the guesses were becuase I didn't study, not becuase it was overly difficult.   I did the communications really well, but in my mind it wasn't enough to put me over the top.  Becuase of my low expectations i was cool as a cat, didn't even break a sweat.  When i got my score,  i was expecting a 60's mark but when I saw that I passed, I had to check the name and ID 3 times to make sure they got the right person.

It is hard to know the true but in my experience. I was confident that I was going to score very high in BEC and got 79. In REG I did not finish half of one SIM and overall I felt like I had low chances to pass and I did pass. For sure, the 75 is not a direct % of the correct answers. I think there must be several factors that affect in each specific section and in each window the way how the scale it. I really hope that this is true because I am scoring about 60-70 in preactice questions. I still have one more round to practice.

Anyway, as long as I got 75, I am very happy.

Holy crap you are me.  Once I felt the immenant doom I turned my frustrations to Starcraft 2 as well.
