Intro Music: Until That Day – Mitch Langley

1. 1. Yolanda – I have five kids and a full time job. Can I possibly pass this exam?

1. 1. Eldo – I scored a 74 on FAR. Is it worth a score review?

1. 1. Julian – I spent an entire year studying for FAR and failed with a 68. Should I change review courses and consider getting the Wiley online test bank?

1. 1. Shawn – I failed REG, and I’m starting to study again. Should I rewrite my notes, or can I use my old notes for review?

1. 1. Robert – I failed BEC twice after not doing any of the writing. I don’t have any grammar or writing training. Can I pass BEC without doing any writing, or should I take a writing course?

1. 1. Lisa – Do the testlets get harder if you are doing well on the exam?

1. 1. Jason – I’m studying for my third attempt at FAR. Do you think I should watch all 51 hours of lecture videos again? I don’t know if the videos help me as much as working MCQs.

1. 1. Mike – I’m done with school and not working right now, but I’m finding it hard to study with so much time on my hands. Do you think I should get a job to help motivate me?

1. 1. Astrid – I started the CPA Exam and passed FAR while living in Puerto Rico. I recently moved to New Jersey and wonder if I am eligible to sit in New Jersey. Do you have any advice?

1. 1. Elizabeth – I wasn’t able to officially exit my exam and I'm worried that my score won’t be processed. I exited the written communication screen and was kicked out just prior to exiting the last screen. Do you know if the scores will still go through?

1. 1. Jenn – I have the 2011 Wiley CPA Review book for Regulation. Is there a need to get the 2012 version, or has there not been that much of a change?

1. 1. Stephanie – I'm studying for BEC, using a video review course and the NINJA method. I keep finding that the homework takes much longer than my course says and more than I have budgeted in my time to study each week. What is the best way to adequately prepare and stay within my study time limits?

1. 1. Javier – Are the FAR simulations and long and difficult as the ones provided in review materials?

1. 1. June – I just failed AUD for the fourth time. I’m coming close to the end of my 18-month window and don’t know what to do to pass it. Do you have any suggestions?
