    So based on your comments BEC had a big change in 2011?

    If so, review courses may have just gotten that much better teaching to the test – still a big difference though. huh.

    REG - Passed!!
    BEC - Passed
    FAR - Passed
    AUD - Passed

    Yes, very cool. According to that. First-time CPA exam section takers had a 55.5% pass rate and Re-exam section takers had a 41.4% pass rate.

    I don't know if that's encouraging or not. I think it is. hmm…

    If you're a 1st timer, 55% sounds much better than the lower traditionally reported pass rates. And if your a 2nd timer, you still got a decent shot of passing the thing.

    REG - Passed!!
    BEC - Passed
    FAR - Passed
    AUD - Passed
