    Can anyone tell me how you can use your NTS to practice research simulations? Thanks in advance.

    Are you using any review course?
    I believe you mean getting the 6 month access from AICPA AL, I think its more of a headache.. .it is difficult to navigate and nothing like what you find in the actual exam. So if you have a review course like gleim, becker or ninja just stick with the al they have

    May the force be with you .

    Spend your time doing MCQs and reading the sections you struggle with.

    For the research questions: If you can search Google or if you remember how to search a library database, you'll be fine.

    I wish it was that easy for me CPyay. I'm lucky if I find the Research question half of the time…. I'm using Roger andhe says if we have an NTS, that we get access to the AICPA for 6 months. I found it to be garbage though. Only gave me access to a few sections.

    @CPYay that's not the case with REG… You need to know how the AL for Reg is setup to know where to go to find reg reaseach answers.. AUD & FAR AL are pretty easy to navigate, but REG can be a beast! & you can eat away time

    @mla11692, Just brilliant.. I've gone through the sample tests before and never thought about looking at the AL..

    Even the exam AL is less user friendly. If it's for REG, I use this site and look up the sections.
