Becker saysThey (sometimes) Curve CPA scores,AICPA says
they dont. Who's right? I guess it depends on your
definition of "curve?" :)

Open your Becker CPA book to page to in the INTRO-15 of
the 2011 FARE book and it says:
"Remember, every candidate taking the exam likely feels
as tense as you do. Take comfort from that shared misery.
Realize also that the examiners indirectly recognize
that stress by curving scores on the examination and by
re-grading failed parts
."

It seems curved. But no one cares after passing!

recognizing your scores. 99? Oh wow, how did you prepare for it? what
materials did you use? and took all parts in one month?
