Last revised: September 28, 2026

Open live U.S. Certified Public Accountant (CPA) exam practice pages for AUD, FAR, REG, BAR, ISC, and TCP with Finance Prep question banks, samples, drills, and explanations.

Use this hub for live U.S. Certified Public Accountant (CPA) Exam practice pages. AUD, FAR, REG, BAR, ISC, and TCP are all available with public samples, the free-practice page, full-length multiple-choice question (MCQ) diagnostics, timed practice, detailed explanations, and section-specific question banks.

Mastery Exam Prep is independent exam-prep software. These pages support exam preparation and practice routing; they do not provide licensure advice and are not affiliated with AICPA, NASBA, or any state board of accountancy. The live U.S. CPA pages use original Finance Prep sample exam questions, practice tests, topic drills, timed practice, MCQ diagnostics, and detailed explanations. They are not official AICPA, NASBA, or state-board questions, copied live-exam content, or exam dumps.

Core and discipline sections

The U.S. CPA Exam route includes three core sections and one discipline section. Use this table to choose the practice page that matches what you are studying now; then use the official exam administrator and your state board for current scheduling, eligibility, and licensure rules.

CPA route role	Sections on this site	What to practice first
Core sections	AUD , FAR , REG	Required section-level knowledge: audit judgment, financial reporting, and tax/regulation.
Discipline sections	BAR , ISC , TCP	Your selected discipline: business analysis/reporting, systems/controls, or deeper tax compliance and planning.

Choosing a CPA discipline section

If your discipline section is already set by your study plan, open that exact route. If you are still comparing BAR, ISC, and TCP, use the table below to choose the practice preview that best matches the work you want to test first. This is study-section guidance only; use official CPA Exam and state-board materials for eligibility, scheduling, and licensure decisions.

If you want to test…	Start with…	Why this route fits
data analysis, forecasting, technical accounting, reporting analysis, and state or local government accounting	CPA BAR	BAR is closest to business analysis plus deeper reporting and accounting judgment.
systems, data, security, privacy, controls, SOC reports, and technology risk	CPA ISC	ISC is closest to IT control, data reliability, security, and assurance-style systems reasoning.
individual planning, entity planning, property transactions, tax compliance, and client tax trade-offs	CPA TCP	TCP is closest to deeper tax planning and compliance beyond the REG core.

How to use CPA practice without overtraining

Use the free full-length pages as MCQ diagnostics, not as a promise that every CPA Exam item type is represented. After each run, sort misses by section and topic, then use the free-practice page to repair the weak area before another mixed attempt.

If you are using…	Best use	Watch out for
Public sample questions	Quick fit check for question style and explanation depth	Do not judge readiness from a small public set.
Full-length MCQ diagnostic	Baseline pacing and rule-application check across one section	A high MCQ score should still be paired with simulation-style exhibit review.
the free-practice page	Repair one weak blueprint area before returning to mixed practice	Do not stay in one topic so long that you memorize stems instead of reasoning.
Timed mixed practice	Examine application and pacing across varied questions	Review weak domains and task-based simulations alongside MCQ results. See practice-score guidance .

For simulation-style preparation, pair MCQ misses with exhibit-reading habits: identify the document, account, taxpayer, control objective, assertion, or reporting consequence before choosing an answer. The section pages below include section-specific notes for what to practice alongside MCQs.

Which CPA section should you open?

If your immediate study problem is…	Start with…
audit evidence, independence, risk assessment, reporting, or attestation judgment	CPA AUD
financial-statement recognition, measurement, consolidation, leases, revenue, or governmental accounting	CPA FAR
individual tax, entity tax, business law, ethics, or federal tax procedures	CPA REG
data-driven business analysis, financial planning, cost accounting, reporting analysis, or state and local government reporting	CPA BAR
information systems, security, controls, SOC, IT governance, privacy, or data management	CPA ISC
advanced tax compliance, planning, property transactions, entities, or personal financial planning tax issues	CPA TCP
