    Taking FAR next Tuesday. I plan on doing all the MCQs and Sims on WTB by this week and spending the weekend practicing JEs and re-writing ninja audio notes. I hope I am feeling comfortable with the material by then.

    should I add anything else? I used CPA Excel for the review material.

    FAR: 78*, 75
    REG: 76*, 85
    BEC: 79*, 76
    AUD: 79*, 93

    All scores expired, let's try this again.

    FAR - 78*
    AUD - 66, 79
    REG - 73, 76
    BEC - 79

    Journal entries are by far the hardest for me. What's the best way to practice them?

    Not first week but mid-second… doing FAR on Aug 13.

    Not that well prepared, but got tons of notes and the NINJA MCQ database to try to cover for the last 13-14 days of study. I plan to do a 100 MCQ a day, and go through my notes + read Becker for every MCQ I fail. Hopefully that will work. But I am really not sure.

    Big 4 Audit Manager from Europe here to pass the CPA in the U.S. of A in 2014! Niiice!

    AUD - 95 / Jul 15 / 130h over 4 weeks
    FAR - 86 / Aug 14 / 240h over 4 weeks
    (11 week break)

    REG - 81 / Nov 14 / 200h over 4 weeks
    BEC - 87 / Nov 17 / 30 h over 2.5 days
