I was referred by a colleague to this website. I just got my results in Audit and I didn’t perform to well. I have taken the exam twice. I used Yaegar and Wiley Study material and Test Bank 2013. My questions are:

1. What other study material can anyone recommend which would complement my Wiley test bank.

2. The simulations have been getting the best of me. Any tips or study material which can help me with audit.

Audit- 61, and 60

Determined to be a Cpa.

Audit 61, 59, 65

The exam auto saves when the clock runs out. You should be ok.

I echo @slweal‘s advice. I used Yaeger and WTB also. If you've already watched the videos, I would just focus on getting your MCQs over 80% for each section. This is how I studied for all my exams. I would hammer my weaker sections until I was testing above 80% consistently, then move to the next section, and so on. Any questions or topics that continued to confuse me or that I didn't fully understand, I would reread the sections and rewrite the important notes to reinforce the material.

REG - 89
FAR - 84
AUD - 73, 86
BEC - 89

I will second what @Nevergiveup2012 said – Audit is probably the exam you actually need to KNOW the most, whereas FAR/REG and sorta BEC can, in my opinion, be passed if you can cram enough memorization in and can get by test day (then you pass and do a massive brain dump and never think about it again!!!!). However, Audit will trick you all over the place in MCQs and then sink your battleship in simulations if you don't really know concepts; memorization won't really cut it with this material. Like Nevergiveup mentioned, read the explanations for WRONG answers too – a great help for really grasping the concepts.

also second'ing what Baxter said about importance of notes for audit – MCQs are good/necessary but notes (Ninja or personally-written) will help bring your brain back to reality and out of the drone of MCQs on a computer screen, which gives you a different perspective on the material. Sometimes writing things down in your own words, how YOU would explain it, helps tremendously.

REG - 65, 70, 80!
BEC - 35, 62, 79!
AUD - 73, 75!
FAR - 65, 73, 70, 75! DONE.
