Are Cpa Review Questions the Same on the Cpa Exam
How similar are Becker MCQs to actual CPA exam questions? I've heard adept things, just wondering if anyone can back this up.
In my feel, mayhap v questions were similiar. The rest came out of nowhere! I couldn't discover most twenty of the questions in either Becker of Yaeger/Wiley. Good luck!
I am studying with Becker, for inspect it was right on… literally only written report Becker and you'll pass no problem. I did supplement ninja notes for Audit though and it was a nice review. Regulation exam threw curve assurance merely becker was cracking. I took FAR before the IFRS changes and so i cannot make a comment on that. I took BEC and am waiting on score.. could be a close call felt okay about it… It'southward but so vast. I call back BECKER is awesome! If you do what they tell yous and i also take lots of notes and read my notes you lot volition pass. Proficient luck!
Most courses (including Wiley) go their MCQs from the same place: the AICPA
I felt like they were very similar for all sections. It may non be word for word but if yous are getting them right on Becker y'all will know enough of the material to get them correct on the test. Hope that helps.
Y'all will probably see a question or 2 per exam that is almost exactly the same equally a Becker mcq. Many other questions are like.
The MCQ'southward aren't too bad. I thought BEC and AUD were fairly spot-on. But Becker'south simulations were awful for me. I've failed REG 3 times with Becker, the simulations are simply nix like the real thing. I've scored 71, 73, and 74. My notices from the examiners say that I am 'comparable' or 'stronger' than average on my MCQ, it's my simulations that fail me every time.
I'm leaning towards Wiley test depository financial institution, anyone have any thoughts on that for REG?
I thought the questions on real examination were a lot simpler in terms of length or details as compared to those on Becker
I also thought the real exam questions were often simpler than Becker. The questions were very similiar, but I think it's the Audit exam curve that throws people for a loop.
i retrieve y'all volition get 1 or ii mcq'due south/testlet that are straight out of becker. one or 2 questions, maybe a few more, will be completely out of nowhere. the rest volition be similar to becker, ask you well-nigh something becker has already tested you on in some fashion. if y'all practice ALL of becker, there should be no more than iv, maybe 6 questions per section that brand y'all say "WTF?!?" i figured those there the test questions.
@slugger991 aye, i would also concur that real exam q's are easier than becker.
The questions overall in Becker are peachy practise for the exam. In general, a section in Becker is more hard than a "difficult" testlet on an exam. The Becker homework questions tend to be the more hard ones that they license from the AICPA. They also option and choose questions on topics that they feel are important so it's in your interest to really learn as much as you can from the MC homework. Sometimes they throw in a few crazy ones, and yous'll know them when you see them, but overall they are solid learning tool.
The worst mistake you tin make with MC is to do them too many times. I meet many people on this forum and even friends I know who do them three-4 times (all of them) and get a faux sense of security since they get-go scoring consistently in the 80s and 90s. Of form, I'thou non proverb you lot' shouldn't rework questions, but be sure to guide them or rework sections yous want more practise with rather than just doing them all. Proficient luck!
Becker MCQ AUD is awesome; I was given good amount of like questions in the test. Becker MCQ BEC sucks!! I remembered having only ONE question that is exactly the same as that one the homework questions Becker has. I walked out thinking I may have to retake information technology.
Becker FAR and REG are okay. I did non really have good grasp from the first try, just when I failed and had to study for the second time…am more familiar with the materials and I felt much better when I sat for the exams. The MCQ I was given for FAR and REG were non similar to those on Becker, only the knowledge gained from working on Becker MCQ can be applied and get you passing score.
Skillful luck!!
I've taken three exams and on 2 of them they had a question or 2 that was literally exactly the same every bit Becker.
