    I am going to be so mad if I get a 74 on FAR.

    Good thing about a 74:

    Possibly less studying involved for retake

    Bad thing:

    1 stupid point was all that kept me from passing!!

    Yeap, I got a 74……..one f-ing point. At this point I am not mad, but scare about how the second test is going to be.

    it's horrible to score a 74 after receiving a 73 on the 1st try for far, we'll see this time around.

    FAR 73(11/02/2010),74(08/31/2011), 80(11/30/2011)
    BEC 75(11/30/2010)
    AUD 87(01/26/2011)
    REG 77(07/09/2011)

    If you get a 74, you should study just as much as if you'd gotten a 64. You just never know what you'll be tested on. Check out my REG scores! I only studied for 2 weeks before taking my second attempt and look how I did.

    FAR: 71, 77
    BEC: 70, 82
    AUD: 62, 78
    REG: 71, 68, 85

    Take a look at my test scores… nothing is worse than scoring in the 70s more than once in a row, trust me. Hopefully I passed Audit and am done but who knows… I will by the end of the week.

    BEC - 75(expired), 79
    REG - 63, 54, 61, 69 (Gave up for a year. Finally decided to really study) 73, 78
    FAR - 70, 71, 73, 83
    AUD - 61, 72, 72, 76

    I got a 72 on FAR first time around. There is a myth out there that the closer you get to 75 the less studying you need to d for next time. It is absolutely not true. I failed FAR the first time by 3 point. I studied for, took audit and passed, and then immediately studied FAR again. I failed with a 66. I studied less and I did way worse then the first time.

    I recommend not taking a failed section for at least a couple months. You need to clear your head of the material and go back to studying and not get immediately pissed off because you know it all already. You need to study just as much as the first time, if not more.

    A PASS

    I couldn't agree more james. I got a 70 on REG the first time and quickly retook it on the 1st day of the following test window with 2 weeks of cramming. Probably 40 hour weeks. Got a 67 the second time.

    FAR 81
    AUD 82
    REG 70, 67, 82
    BEC 74, 77

    I'm joining the 74 club. Just got that grade on REG. A big bummer, I must say. I had a whole vacation plan during Christmas and now I have to cancel. But I deserve it. I failed, so I have to pay the price. It's not the AICPA's fault, it's mine!!

    Oddly enough, I thought my BEC exam was harder and I got an 80 on that one!! Heck, I even though my FAR exam was harder and I got an 89!!

    I think they don't curve REG that much because all those people with a lot tax experience are doing well on the exam therefore making it more competitive to pass.
