Wave One Updates:
- 11/15 – Approx 99% of BEC is out
- 11/23 – Approx 99% of AUD is out
- 11/25 – Approx 48% of REG is out
- 11/25 – Approx 65% of FAR is out
I documented the releases for the last window and using the pattern from then, this is my forecast. If they’re released earlier, then I’ll be pleasantly surprised.
Exam scores will be available on NASBA’s site:
- BEC – Tuesday November 18
- REG – Friday November 21
- AUD – Monday November 24
- FAR – Wednesday November 26
Again…just my prediction…I didn’t call any ‘little birds’ yet…too early.
update 11/18: AUD is apparently out for CA/VA. AUD was the third section released last window…although I used Wave 2 as a guide…Wave 1 could be different, I don’t know…it looks like AUD results will be out 5 days earlier than I predicted
After being clearing wrong on AUD, I did a little checking to see when scores came out for Wave 1.
- BEC came out August 15
- REG came out August 20
- AUD came out August 21
- FAR came out August 23
Still no REG in NY
Still no FAR in NY.
Still waiting on FAR in NJ from 10/11…
Nothing yet for FAR in CA 10/23. So frustrating! Maybe Thanksgiving?…..
Still no scores whatsoever in MS. No BEC, no AUD, no REG, no FAR.
Still no Reg in CA. Took exam on 10/24. The CA BOA is probably screwin around again. Lazy govt employees.
What was your friend’s score that took it with you on 10/3?
The REG Score that is
Looks like we will be waiting until December!!! AHHH Going crazy.
Another71 – how do you know 48% is out? Where the beep is the other 52%. I took REG on 10/3. Is it a bad sign I haven’t received it yet?
no FAR in CO!
No REG in VA. Has anyone received REG in VA?
No FAR in MO, anyone else from MO waiting on FAR?
has anyone in ny received a far score?
Does anyone have an idea when REG will come out in CO? I sat on Nov 30.
Thanks
Took Far on 10/1/08 and no Far score in CA yet……..
I took REG on 10/3 in VA and have not received a score yet. Any idea when scores will be released?
No REG in FL either, What a bunch of lazy people working for NASBA?
Keep in mind that NASBA posts scores as soon as the AICPA releases them (or within a working day or so). It’s the AICPA taking it’s time – not NASBA. Now, if NASBA could update its technology and post scores in real time like some of its constituents do instead of running some batch process at 3am the following morning, that would be nice.
does anyone know if you were grandfathered in under the 120 hour rule, if you do not finish all 4 parts of the exam by 12/31/08 you are allowed to continue to sit however, are you then required to obtain 150 credit hours or are you grandfathered in with 120 hours indefinitely?
Any hope that the AICPA releases more scores tomorrow, or should we just accept that fact that REG scores won’t come until the second wave?

It wouldn’t surprise me if some more scores trickled in early this week and I would be equally unsurprised if they stopped until Wave 2 started coming out in 2 week. It sucks, I know.
I live in Mississippi and receive my exam scores in the mail from my State Board. I took REG on October 27th, and received my score on Wednesday, November 26th. I’m now finished with the exam forever! I just wanted to tell some of you guys who are still waiting that it sounds like you may be waiting for your score to be released with the second wave of test scores (around the 3rd week in December – earliest. Usually we are the last people in the country to get scores at the end of the wave release.
Ok, so I personally am not worried about getting the REG exam because my 18 months wont expire until 2010, but isn’t there someone out there that needs to know their score to see if they passed their last section? If it was their last exam to pass, and their expire date was coming up, they cant wait 3 months to get their score like many of us are going to have to. Has anyone had a problem like this or how should you handle it? Start studying for an exam that you don’t know the results for? Pay for another exam? This process is awful.
Another Mississippi person here. I got my AUD score 11/26 – 75! 2 down, 2 to go.
No Far score on CA yet. I tooked it on 10/01/08 at 8:05 am. Please tell why????????
Same story. Sat for FAR 10/01/08 still no score in NY. Wtf?
No REG score in CA. Took exam on 10/24.
Far Score????????
I havent got my Reg score in TX yet. Anyone has got the REG scores in TX. I took the exam on 10/31/2008.
According to the AICPA, the Illinois Board of Examiners has received all scores
from the October-November testing window that will be released in the first cycle. The
first score release covered testing events from October 1 through November 7, 2008.
The American Institute of CPAs (AICPA) controls what scores are released, in
what order and what percentage. They did not provide us with information about the
smaller percentage of FAR and REG results released in the first round. It does not,
however, signify anything negative if your score was not released!
Are there any updates on Wave 1 REG scores for NY?
Thanks.
Okay it has been 9 weeks. I would think that should be long enough to grade and post REG scores for GA!!

You’re looking at about 1.5 more weeks I think…sometime after the 15th. The AICPA has been weird this window, so who knows.
I took FAR on Oct. 2, and still no score! That’s nine weeks now!!!!
I’m waiting to get my life back… my journey:
AUD 7/2/08 – 87
BEC 8/1/08 – 84
FAR 8/29/08 – 79
REG 10/29/08 – ???
btw, this is california…
I took the FAR on November 26th. This was the first time I’ve taken any of the parts. I know I screwed up one of the two simulations. As far as the multiple choice is concerned… I couldn’t tell if the questions were getting harder, or where just hard for me! Anyone pass the FAR knowing they completely screwed up a simulation? Thanks.
Anyone pass the FAR knowing they completely screwed up a simulation?
Me – when I recently passed FAR. I couldn’t figure out what they wanted me to do on the sim and I barely completed 2 tabs (tab 1 + written communication). I left 3 tabs blank and I suspect that the sim was graded because it was over a normal topic and the first sim was over a topic you wouldn’t really expect. No worries…I think I bombed the sim that was graded and I still passed.
I’m from PA and I took audit on Nov. 26th. I’m having a hard time understanding that release schedule thing. Any chance I will get my score before Christmas? I need to schedule FARE and REg next, and I was planning to wait to get my audit score back before i schedule my next test dates
Took FAR Oct 4th in CO, still no score
Still no REG score in CA. Took it 11/12/08
Took FAR Oct 8th in CO, no score as well
My husband took all four sections this testing window and this is what we have so far:
AUD 10/04/08 97
BEC 10/25/08 84
FARE 11/14/08 ??
REG 11/26/08 ??
The wait is agonizing! When is this magical “second wave” going to be??
Comment from above** He took it in New Mexico
REG came out in NM! My husband has now passed 3!! still waiting on FAR
AUD 10/04/08 97
BEC 10/25/08 84
FAR 11/14/08 ????!!!
REG 11/26/08 83
Got 84 in REG from CO. Done with CPA! I am quite happy and thanks very much for providing me information from this forum. Thanks!!!
I took FAR on 10/31 in PA. My score has not yet been released. Any idea when I can expect to recieve the score?
Well I took REG on Oct 11th and still do not have my score. However, I took AUD on Nov 26th and just got my score. How messed up is that
I just recieved my FAR scores in PA from the 10/31 test date. I passed it with an 83, which now gives me all 4 sections passed! The journey is over!

The 2010 CPA Exam is in full swing and candidates are neck-deep in their CPA Review courses trying to fit in another exam in a shortened testing month.
Dates and news that candidates should know:
February 7, 2010: Traditionally, the 7th is the last day you can sit for a section of the CPA Exam and still [...]
The Wave 1 CPA Exam score release is always my favorite because I average 50% accuracy on naming the exact date NASBA will release CPA Exam scores.
On the other hand, I am terrible at Wave 2 CPA Exam score release predictions – mostly because the AICPA can be very unpredictable in Wave 2.
It’s early January, [...]
Ten random stupid things said to candidates while studying for the CPA Exam:
I found out that I had failed FAR by 1 point and BEC by 2 (double ugh!). My boss offered to let me go back down to part time for the next two months while I study and retake the exams.
A coworker [...]

My interview with the AICPA titled “CPA Exam Myths Debunked” is featured in the September 2009 issue of “The Asset” magazine, which is published by the Missouri Society of CPAs.
The staff at The Asset did a great job incorporating the article into the publication.

Failing the CPA Exam is normal, but frustrating.
No curve. No re-score. No real-time scoring.
The security measures make the CIA blush.
Time to think up a new excuse for missing family reunions.
There were two people who asked about this in the REG discussion for this month, and I found it worthy of a post. Time management on the CPA Exam is critical for REG and FAR. AUD and BEC? – not as much.
REG is probably the worst exam in terms of time management. They only give [...]
I knew coming out of the exam that I had passed, but I didn’t expect this. I’m paranoid so I’m whiting out my info until I have my certificate in hand.
Thank you GOD.
Thank you Dr. Yaeger and everyone at Yaeger CPA Review!
