I’ve been busy adjusting to the office life and prepping for my first busy season. I haven’t had time to reflect and think about stuff and I’m not sure of what direction I want to take this blog now that I’m done with the exam. I probably won’t be updating much, but I’ll still be around. Feel free to hit me up on Twitter if you need anything.

Oh yeah, btw, I’m done with the CPA exam. Alls I gotta do is get some +1000 work experience hrs and pass an ethics exam, and I’ll be official.

Kinda funny… REG score = my highest score. And I still don’t know shit about taxes. Just take a look at my score report below (notice ‘Comparable’ on Individual & Entity Taxation topics while ‘Stronger’ on Ethics/Blaw topics):

 

What kind of information is in this report? The performance report displayed below shows your performance in each of the Content Areas of the Examination and your Overall Performance by item type. Your performance in each content area is based on the multiple choice items only. The percentages represent the relative weights of content in this section. The information below is based on your performance as compared to just-passing candidates (i.e. candidates with a total score between 75 and 80).

How should I interpret my performance?
  • You should use caution in interpreting your content area performance.
  • Your performance by content area and item type is much less reliable than your total test score because each performance measurement is based on a smaller number of questions.
  • You should study all content areas when retaking the test. If you study only the areas where you are weak, you might do better on those areas, but worse on others when you re-test.
  • As you review your performance, keep in mind that there is some imprecision in all assessments, especially when results are based on a smaller number of test questions. Your examination performance could differ from one day to the next, depending on a variety of factors.

For more information regarding how this comparison was calculated or for more information on how the examination is scored, please see the CPA Examination website at www.aicpa.org/cpa-exam.
