    What would you say are absolute essentials that will most likely show up on the test (i.e. when studying for REG I wished someone told me the importance of Journal Entries for the simulations)

    It's been a while but…bonds, govt/nfp, journal entries (for everything!). I also studied a lot of cash flow statements, because they always tripped me up.

    CPA, CFE
    CISA- Experience will be completed by August 2016

    Sunni,

    Honestly, study everything to the best of your ability. There isn't one area that you are guaranteed to see more or less of on the exam. They give you these exam breakdowns but your actual exam will vary and is unlikely to match the breakdown %'s. The stuff you skim or barely study could be the 1 point you need to pass the exam.

    Aud: 99. (May)
    Bec: 89. (April)
    Far: 84. (Feb)
    Reg: 79. (July)

    @Gabe. Thank you

    @WaitingonScoreRelease I know and I will. But I simply cant retain all that memory. I will just have to settle with knowing some stuff and being familiar with others. But thank you (:
