    Yep, I'm here. Thought I passed, ended up with a 73. Haven't gotten a score report, but I know of a couple sims I got wrong (looked up the answer when I got home).

    Completely sucks – especially since I had time left over and didn't even think about looking through the AL for answers. If I had, it's highly likely I would've passed.

    Re-study this go 'round will be a little shorter since a lot of the info is still relatively fresh. I'll dig deeper into the areas where it looks like I struggled, go over NINJA notes to keep the stuff I “know” fresh, and really drill in the JEs. I thought I had them… but apparently not.

    FAR - 73, rematch in early April
    AUD - 5/14
    REG - 8/14
    BEC - 11/14

    Walked out of Q1 2014 FAR exam feeling very confident that I passed comfortable and got a 62. Let me tell you that it was maddening. That's scary to think that you passed comfortable and did not come close. This was my first exam. It seems strange to me that college educated people, many with Masters degrees, that have taken accounting test for the better part of their adult life cannot gauge the results of a test. In college you can pretty much tell with a high degree of certainty what grade you got on a particular test based on how you felt after the exam. This goes both ways, some people think they bombed certain sections but pass. I am not a conspiracy theorist but am I the only one that finds this strange?
