    Here’s my breakdown

    Testlet #1: I dominate. Took about 20 minutes. Flagged 2

    Testlet #2: WTF! Questions were a lot harder and were on average 3-5 sentences long. Took me 40 minutes. A lot of calculations. Flagged 6

    Testlet #3: WTF! Questions were still long and wordy. Took 35 minutes. Flagged 6

    SIMs: Very Doable. Found the research questions. Prob got 70% on 3 and 50/50 on the others

    Overall, I don’t know what to think. Last time I had the exact opposite experience, and score a 72. I feel I prepared a lot better than last time. These exams never let you feel like you for sure passed. I’m guessing mid 70’s. What do you guys think?

    BEC 72, 72, 76!!! (10/21/15)
    AUD 65, 66, 77!!! (8/31/15)
    FAR 76!!! (7/6/15)
    REG 72, 87!!!! (2/23/15)

    CA Ethics Exam: 80, 98!!

    I would say there is a good chance you passed. I can't remember where I saw this breakdown but the MCQ's in the test environment work as follows :

    Testlet 1 : Preliminary questions that gauge your understanding
    Testlet 2 : Did well on 1 = Harder Q's
    Did Poorly on 1 = Medium Q's
    Teslet 3 : Did well on 2 = Harder Q's
    Did poorly on 2 = Medium Q's

    And then Harder q's are worth more than medium Q's. So the fact that you got progressively harder Q's each time makes me think that you did well – consistently getting Q's correct on the testlets.

    SIMS are a total unknown 🙂

    AUD : 73, 82
    BEC : 76

    REG : 72, 75

    FAR: 61, 84

    NeverQuit5, for reg, did you use Roger's cram or full course? You think Becker did a better job at explaining the Business Law portion of the exam compared to Roger? I know he is great for taxes, but I dont know if he could do a better job than Olinto at teaching Business Law.

    @Martin, it's hard to tell from your comment, but I just wanted to clarify and say that for Becker, Olinto teaches BLAW. Gearty does tax only.

    Based on reading your post, it sounds like you thought Gearty taught BLAW.

    I can't answer your question about Roger vs. Becker, but I just wanted to comment and clear possible confusion, in case NeverQuit5 never replies…

    I wrote the following=

    I dont know if he could do a better job than Olinto at teaching Business Law.

    I'm very aware Mr. Olinto teaches law as per the statement above. I just think Olinto is great at teaching Law, but I have not seen Roger yet.
