    Ok, I am new, created an account just so I could ask this question. Regarding the research question, I’ve seen practice research simulations on both Becker and Wiley that specifically state what they want whether its topic, section, subsection or paragraph. I’ve always done well on those on practice exams, and have seen questions on the actual exam that ask for different parts of the authoritative literature, some exams was topic, some were section and sub-section, while a few were all the way down to paragraph. I’m only missing FAR, have passed the other 3, and keep missing it by only a handful of points, so its not something I want to overlook. This morning I was messing around and took a sample test on the AICPA website (the small sample test), the research question I got asked for section (I’m 100% sure of this, and my boss, a CPA, verified it), which I put down correctly. However it marked it as wrong with the correct answer wanting it all the way down to paragraph. So, sorry for the length of my post, but my question is it always down to paragraph, or is it question specific and the AICPA sample test was wrong? Any help would be greatly appreciated, don’t think I could handle another miss by 5 points or less. Have generally been comparable in simulations across the board, so this could be something that could bump me up over 75.
