AUD Study Group – Q2 2018 - Page 15

@jsdailey – Jeff recommends above 80 for the average trending score, but I think you should be fine with 75+. Here is how the average trending score is calculated if you're wondering:

@Isabelle – thanks for the list!

@Big4BeanCounter Thanks!
I'm still trying to make sense of my scores though. Besides transaction cycles and a couple of Specific Audit areas, I am missing most of my questions on very unlikely to be tested stuff. Like the things that have 4-10 questions on my test bank because they showed up on that one test that one time.

Thanks @allsheneeded.
For that exact reason I do MCQs in sets of 20. What I learned with FAR and it's still true with AUD. There are some questions that if you're not in a good pace, you're going too fast, you'll miss the key detail. I'm doing my very best to make sure and read the question thoroughly. Goal has been to do questions around 45 seconds each. That should leave me with around 3 hours for the Sims. And I'm taking notes off my MCQs trying to make info blips for each questions and starred the ones I got wrong to review Wednesday and Thursday.

On the practice AICPA sim can someone tell me why we would have to make an adjustment to inventory for the 10mm widget? If the goods are in consignment as of year end shouldn't they be included in our inventory and not the consignor's?

Ignore – got it, in one of the documents it says it should be moved from the perpetual inventory account to consigned inventory account -____-

Hello All,

Just took FAR last Thursday. Taking Audit May 31st.

So far so good. Finding out we are the keepers of the truth and are held to standards in order to up-hold public honesty for ethical financial reporting. I put a spin on it to convince myself I am serving a good purpose and that's what I came up with.

Good luck everyone.

@jsdailey: I struggled with my MCQ scores changing a lot in between testing. I found when this happened, my self-esteem and fell and my scores kept going down.
During these times, I stepped away from MCQ’s and re-wrote my ninja notes. My notes were combo of Ninja and some Becker stuff I had written into my ninja notes. This helped to take the pressure off the low scores and put stuff in my head that I had forgotten.
I know people say take a break, but I don’t because I think it takes the momentum away.
@big bean: you are so good for this forum and a great cheerleader! I hope you stay here.
@Fam: how are you doing? push it back. I did and it helped , with my confidence
I have been missing my CPA peeps!! Had to do serious marriage damage control – only studying and working makes me a witch. With a capital B. Needed to spend non-study time with the family
