Please share how hard were the testlets and SIMS and was there a DRS. Was there any topic more heavily tested than others?
Testing on Mar 10th and extremely nervous. Would love to get some inputs.

That would be considered an act discredible under the AICPA Code of Professional Conduct Rule 3.8 if we told you details of SIMS on the actual exam. lol just giving you a hard time. The SIMS were very manageable and the DRS was a little messy unless you have audited before. It was very unclear what they were asking and I ended up only having like 10 mins to figure out and I ended up running out of time. Scored an 81.

btw there's a whole thread on AUD Q1 experience. I think you'll be able to get some valuable insight there

Thanks Cruzer.. u scared me @ first. :).
Thanks goingallin for directing me to the thread. Was wondering where is everyone.

@Motiani I agree with @Goingallin. There is a few threads for Q1 AUD under AUD Exam Experience that were helpful in calming my nerves when I took exam on 1/13. Leave yourself plenty of time for SIMS but you really don't need more than an hour and a half. Be comfortable with AL as well. Helped a ton and I was able to check my answers by using it appropriately. I would also read SAS on AICPA website for the bigger sections or areas you are struggling on. This helped me big time. Purchase NINJA Notes for AUD and write them 2x and you will pass.
