   How many questions did you mark for review in REG and still pass? I think I marked about 4 in the first testlet and at least 6 or 7 in the next 2 testlets. It could be that some of those questions were the "pre-test" questions (and I was not sure what they were asking) but it made me worry that I was in bad shape if I had that many that I was unsure of. I definitely felt like the 2nd and 3rd testlets were harder than the first. I at least answered all of the questions but I had a hard time picking between two answer choices on those ones that I marked.

   I probably marked between 6-8 for each testlet on REG. I mark fairly aggressively, however. Certainly not as many as the 2nd and 3rd testlets for FAR, which I marked at least 11+ on each.

   AUD: 97, FAR: 96, BEC: 93, REG: 99, Ethics: 100 (laugh)

   Thanks. I typically mark any questions that I'm not at least 75% sure of so hopefully that isn't too many. I have a tendency to overanalyze the difficulty of the testlets and the number of questions I wasn't sure of.

   I usually mark 6-8 questions in each testlet for review, although I have done more. I have realized through 3 exams so far that when I go back to those questions I end up going with my first guess anyways. Keeping this in mind might help people go through the MC faster. Unless you truly have no idea how to answer a question or really can't decided between two answers, I'd mark your first guess and move on. This will leave you fewer problems to go back to and leave more time for simulations. I tried this on my last exam (REG) and it worked well for me.

   AUD - 85 (7/24/09) BEC - 90 (8/31/09) REG - 86 (11/16/09) FAR - 82 (05/11/10) *I'm a CPA!!!
