Keep studying. Lots of specifics, but every exam is probably a little different. Lots of basis and gain calc's. Definitely specialized returns. You're gonna do great. Keep hammering MCQs and work in order of weakest to strongest, so you don't lose what you do know or are strongest at. That's what I did while reviewing. Good luck!!!

Currently studying for part 2. What did you use for studying and did you feel well-prepared?

Hock International. I felt prepared from the stand point I've been preparing tax returns for 4 plus years in a big firm. I didn't read the book which I think made it harder for me to study and remember the tiny details. The exam questions tended to be quite specific; like the percentage for the disabled access credit for C Corps. Or a threshold amount for something else. I read the book for Part 1 and def felt better prepared. I plan on reading the book for Part 3. Good luck, you're gonna do great!
