Here’s How You All Did on the CPA Exam in the First Quarter of 2012

Posted on April 11, 2012 by Adrienne Gonzalez

NASBA has released the Q1 CPA exam data for 2012 and I have to say… uh… well… it's not as bad as last year around this time, I guess.

Of 40,709 candidates who sat in Q1, 45.5% of the exams taken were passed.

2012 Q1 Candidate Performance

Ten Most Expensive iPad Apps List Includes Becker’s Mobile Flashcards

  • June 27, 2011

The Most Expensive Journal recently came out with a top 10 list of most expensive iPad apps and – surprise, surprise – it looks like Becker’s mobile flashcards made the list.

The mobile flashcard set includes over 950 cards with questions on the front and brief answers on the back, which will look familiar to any of you who have used Becker’s regular flashcards.

The app works on iPhone or iPad but you don’t have the option to use it on both if you happen to own both devices; you’ll have to buy two copies of the app if that’s what you’re trying to do.

Curious to hear what your most expensive app is and whether or not you’d buy these.
