ExamDragon is independent exam preparation. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or reviewed by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), the National Association of State Boards of Accountancy (NASBA), any state board of accountancy or Prometric. Uniform CPA Examination and CPA Exam are names of the AICPA, used here only to name the exam. Every question and simulation here is our own, written from the AICPA's published Blueprints; none is adapted from the AICPA's released questions or any review course.
Mock exam, FAR practice form 1
The rules, as on the day
- 50 multiple-choice questions and 7 task-based simulations in 240 minutes, in five testlets: two of 25 questions, then simulations in testlets of 2, 3 and 2.
- Inside a testlet, Previous, Next, Flag for review and the review list move between its questions. When you submit a testlet it closes: you cannot return to it, as on the exam.
- After testlet 3, the standardized 15-minute break: the clock stops, and you may end it early or skip it. One clock runs for the rest; there is no time per testlet.
- Simulations hold exhibits and parts: enter amounts (negatives as -1,250 or (1,250)), record journal entries line by line, choose from a list. A calculator is in the bar. An unanswered question or part counts as wrong.
- Your progress is saved in this browser; a closed tab comes back to the same question with the clock still running.
Built to the AICPA's format for FAR: its length, testlets, weighting and break. The screen is our own, not the test centre's, and the scoring is ours: percent correct for the questions and for the simulations, each part of a simulation one point, combined 50/50. The AICPA does not publish how it scales scores.
