Intro: CPA Exam Pass Rates for Q2 2021

1. Hey Jeff – I’m beginning my CPA Exam preparation. How many weeks should I plan for each test? – Denise

2. I just resubscribed to NINJA after failing the FAR section for my 5th time on June 29th with a 67 (My other scores were 59 [12/28/20, I used NINJA before my 2nd attempt and then got a 68 [2/11/21], 52 [3/23], and 70 [Originally scheduled for 5/14, but halfway through taking my exam, the entire testing center crashed and had to retake it on 6/4]). [I then figured maybe to ‘rush my retake before June 30th]. My ‘primary’ CPA course is Roger. Now, here I am, with my 6th attempt scheduled for September 1st (3.5 weeks). I wanted to know if you had any tips to help because I am almost on the verge of ‘throwing in the towel’ and saying, “I guess this isn’t for me.” :( Also, do you think I should reset my data in the MCQs Dojo? Thanks so much!!! Yitzchak

3. Your reg notes say NOL for 2018 and beyond are limited to 80% taxable income and carried forward indefinitely. I believe this is wrong. Because of the cares act, this changed to 2018-2020, has no limit on taxable income, and can be carried back five and forward indefinitely. Then beginning 2021, it has the 80% limit and is carried forward indefinitely. Am I correct?- Josh
