I had the pleasure of attending one of the "boot camps" for the advanced training.  I passed 3 out of 5 the first time I took the exam and am currently reviewing to take the 2 parts over again.  I wish I could tell you that this has been a pleasurable learning experience, but I can't.  At least with the CPA and EA exams, the study guides give you the answers and tell you what you got wrong and show you why.  QuickBooks wants you to have a deeper understanding of their product and changes the verbiage from the study guides to the test.  I have been working with desktop and QBO for years and have considered myself versed in the software and have been considered an asset to my employer with my proficiency.  This is not the CPA or EA exam, but it makes you feel that way.  Why are the "boot camps" not split into the 5 parts of the exam instead of condensing it to 3 long lectures?  Are they trying to make the test as difficult as possible?  Are the software geeks chuckling to themselves?  80% for QBO, 75% and 70% for the CPA and EA exams.
