  • How long does it take to get your scores back on this section? I took it July 1, in Utah. Does it take longer if you take it at the beginning of the two month testing period? Thanks!

  • They release the scores in waves, there are 2 waves per testing window.(typically the first month is the first wave) They release first wave scores around the 17th of the following month. Therefore you should be getting you scores mid to late August. Here is a website that updates score release dates and predictions: http://www.another71.com/cpa-exam-scores-results-july-august-2009-wave-1-wave-2.html

  • Just curious, if Auditing is one of the easiest parts, then why is it the longer?

    Thanks.
