Did the exam today and don’t know what to think.

What did you think about the New Software Changes?

Taking it tomorrow, any last minute things I should focus on?

Damn, I'm taking the exam on Saturday. That's no good to hear.

I took Audit yesterday as well and I have to say… the 2nd MCQ testlet seemed like a whole different exam than the other 2 times I've taken it! Hopefully that just means I did well on the first testlet, but those questions were very… unique..

Did the sims seem harder or easier

I took Aud yesterday and if I had one piece of advice it would be to do the AICPA practice exam, especially look over the SIMS. Unsure about the MCQ, had about 3 MCQ in the 2nd testlet that seemed foreign but other than that felt good about the exam. Which probably means I got like a 34 on the exam. I felt better about this one than I did about FAR and I got an 83 on that exam so we will see.

I took it today, finished with about 40 minutes left (not sure if that's a good thing). This was the first time taking it, so I have nothing to compare it to. The sims varied in difficulty, had two moderately difficult ones. The other's weren't so bad, was able to utilize the AL. 100% sure I nailed the research sim. Agree about trying the AICPA sample test (there was one sim that was the same concept in the sample test) and know the individual IC/substantive (TRACE/IRON) procedures for given situations.

@The_Benjamins – I believe I just saw your post on your AUD exam experience on the Ninja Dojo as well! I hope you passed it. Taking mine later this month.

Yup that was me. I hope so too. For FAR i walked out feeling terrible and ended up passing, so who knows. This one was just much more subjective, so i'm feeling 50/50. Anyways, good luck brotha!

Did you see any examples of AUDIT SAMPLING requiring calculations?

I have come across a sampling simulation … so it does get tested

I took the exam on 3/5 and had no idea what to think when I was done – after 3 exam I'm numb to it I think. The second testlet was tough, and I felt like I guess on like 20 questions between testlet 1 and 2. SIMS were okay but I always get one or two where I have a hard time even understanding what the questions are asking. Came out on top though so definitely don't count yourself out until you see your score!

Super nervous about this exam. I took it once in Nov/Dec period, and blazed through it in under 2 hours. Felt super confident; made upper fifties. Sat for it this morning, and finished in a little over 2 hours, after re-reading questions a few times and looking to narrow down answers. Sims were much different than last time I took it. But seeing that I still had 1:42 left on the clock to click submit I'm just an anxious wreck now. Fingers crossed though
