I am taking FAR tomorrow, I am wiped out from doing MCQs on all of the stinking chapters. My eyeballs and brain are tired from figuring out MCQs on my weaker topics.

I took Becker’s final exam 1 on Friday and have reviewed MCQs all day yesterday and some today along with flashcards.

I feel I NEED to brush up on my JEs before exam. I’m afraid taking Final exam 2 right now instead of reviewing JEs (since im kinda weak at them) will be a waste of my precious time and be a huge confidence killer since I scored low on my first final exam 1 (a 56) .

Any advice? I am looking at this website (https://www.principlesofaccounting.com/illustrative%20entries/entrieslist.htm) to brush up on JEs, but I hear I also need to know adjusting journal entries and have no idea where to find help on that.

I definitely wish I was one of those people who got all 4 exams done in 4 months, but unfortunately LIFE (being a newlywed, stress, adjusting to newlywed life and cpa exam study life, as well as starting a job with a Big4 which I am very happy about) got in the way, just happy that I am passing period!!

I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me!

Yeah, it would be good to get down adjusting entries and that is where I have struggled at quite a bit. Just remember if one account is improperly stated, you have to do credit it when it is debited, and debit it when it was credited. For example:

ABC CO improperly debited the expense account on an Equipment account.

You would then just debit the correct account of Equipment, and credit the expense account to cancel out what was originally debited.

You NEED to brush up on J/E's for the exam. CPA hopeful is spot on.

REG - 65 , 76 (10 point combooo!!)

Thanks guys. JEs seem fairly easy it's just when they give you a super complicated problems or expect you to know it backwards and forwards or give you 100 options to choose from for your debits and credits that it gets hard. Should I just go through the JEs in the book,? There's sooooo many. And I don't think they really cover “adjusting entries”

If you have the wiley book, go look at the basic concepts module 9a section. There is a really good adjusting entry simulation that I just studied today.

Thanks for responding 🙂 I don't have the Wiley book in will try to go through each chapter and write down the JEs though. Thank you
