    I am having hard time grasping the material in Business Law, so far done with contract, sales, commercial paper and secured transactions. I know that the whole Business law only cover about 20% in exam. Do I really have to master this topic , its lots of material or am I stressing too much here? What is your thoughts?

    Do you really want to take the chance at not knowing some of the material very well? That's how I think about much of the material that might not seem important.

    What's even better is being at a small public firm for 7 years I've applied hardly any of the business law stuff (ever). So not only do I consider it not important, I hadn't used any of it since college. I spent a bunch of time on the business law stuff. I also passed. The cpa exam isn't something you want to be under prepared for.

    B-Law/Prof Responsibilities is around 40% of your exam.

    “Don't focus too much on it” = 68 😉

    AUD - 79
    BEC - 80
    FAR - 76
    REG - 92

    The first time I watched the Law videos I was getting some things but most of it was Greek. I then attempted questions to practice as I thought it would make sense this way and it didn't

    I then re-watched the videos and that is when things started to click as I would be like oh ya I remember that from this question.. oh yes that's why I got that wrong etc …

    I ended up becoming very strong in Law and I will say that really helped in the exam when I passed REG. It actually can be very easy mark to pick up. You just need to take the time and invest into really understanding the concepts.

    Good Luck!
