   2 Questions--

   1) Do they really grade more on writing skills than technical content? Could you completely make things up for the answer, but as long as it looked and sounded good, you would get full credit?

   2) Does it matter if you put one or two spaces after each sentence? I am in the habit of only 1, but I have heard that 2 is grammatically correct.

   Thanks for your help :)

   Only the AICPA can answer your first question with 100% certainty, but I'm pretty sure that the accuracy of your content isn't graded. You do have to directly address the question asked, though. So, if you're asked to compare A to B, your answer has to compare A and B not address some other facet of A or B. You need to write in well-structured paragraphs, write in a logical fashion, don't use an abbreviation until you've written it out once, and don't use bullet points.

   I really doubt that one or two spaces after each sentence is going to be an issue.

   Good luck.
