@Elle it really depends on how you learn (listening vs. reading). Audit is tricky, with the MCQ all the answers seem to make sense but you gotta select the best answer. There's a lot of memorization. Review all your notes/flash cards over at least 3-5 times and do as many practice exams as possible and read the answers to the MCQ even if you get them right.

@tosha i felt good walking out of audit this as well and the theory is correct lol

for those people who are re-taking it…whats your plan of attack? do the whole review course again or just focus on the questions and notes…i don't think i can listen to Gearty say “again” a thousand more times lol

I just got my AUD score 69 tonight, very disappointing. I felt good after I finished the exam, I thought I did great. Based on the score summary report, I am stronger on MC, weaker on simulations. It looks almost the same as my REG, but I got 80 on REG. I used BECKER to prepare for the exam, can anyong give me some advise on how to do better on simulations?

I failed AUD…first exam ever. Thought I was much more prepared than I actually was. Anyone who is re-taking or have done so, what should my approach be? Re-watch ALL videos? I am using the Yeager Homestudy and just ordered Beckers AUD flashcards. Also, I was wondering how to find my score summary report? Is that on NASBA? I would really like to know if I have any stronger areas. Only got a little over a month to get this AUD stuff down pat!

AUD(2/16/11) 51,64, retake Oct.

@hoping

i got the same thing…and i felt the same way walking out as well, although i thought to my self if i fail it would be because of the SIMS and thats what happened. My plan for the simulations is to practice more of them at the same time go over the whole course again in detail, just in case. Think its better to be thorough rather than just focus in on the simulations alone.

@wheresmyluckycharm

seems like your in the same boat as me. I would start off with your weak areas that your consistently scoring less in the MCQ and memorize all the reports and IC stuff. Then do all the MCQ and Simulations again and if there's time remaining watch the lectures. (depends on how you learn some people like to listen/watch and others like to read). With doing the MCQ you tend to remember it more than just reading it.

@Elsie

hows your experience with roger? i was thinking of getting it but was considering the costs.

[WheresMyLuckyCharm]

@ MM23, thank you for the tips! I am re-evaluating my study techniques and I know I wasn't putting in 100% the first time around, so this time I am not wasting any time! We are re-taking only a few days apart.

I failed AUD using Becker, however, I know I did not study enough. I work full time so it is really hard to find time to fully concentrate. The second time around, I am rereading everything and redoing all MCQ and I am scoring above 80. Hopefully, I am really getting the material this time.

Interesting for those studying audit;

https://news.idg.no/cw/art.cfm?id=5D248463-1A64-6A71-CE2C8ADADE10CE68

BEC - 60, 71, 79
AUD - 73, 66, 87!!!!! Yes! I am done!
REG - 74, 76
FAR - 75

Yaeger Review for all except my last AUD score (Roger)!

[Study Chair]

If anyone has time, I'd like your opinion. Audit will be my last exam. I'm using CPAexcel and Wiley online test bank for additional TBS's and MCQ's. I've never worked in audit. On practice exams, I'm scoring in the 90's and feel ready (except for a little more time I'll spend on the TBSs'). Any other suggestions…I'm really trying to pass this on April 21st. Thanks very much.

BEC 86
FAR 87
REG 86
AUD 93 DONE!!

Anyone have any suggestions for studying multiple choice questions for this exam? I do well with the sims, but get lost in the wording of the MCQ answers. Help!

[Anonymous]

Hi I just have audit pending I got 60 in it. I was confident in audit but now a bit worried should I go for a review, or prepare for a retake.

[magster]

ExamB1tes – between you and me we could really do well and blow this test out of the water. I always do well on the MCQ's and horrible on the Sims – for some reason I always seem to get the really off the wall stuff. Yesterday was the 3rd time taking the AUD and once again the MCQ's went well – lots of them I had seen before and was prepared for…the SIM….omg. Not confident I will pass it this time around either. And to top it all – 3 months before I will get the result.

To your question…..I prepared by doing the MCQs over and over and over and over until they stick and make sense why this one is right and the other answers are wrong.

REG - Passed
FAR - Passed
BEC - Passed
AUD - 2-25-12 PASSED - DONE !!!!!!!! WOOHOO

*** One day I will get my life back.... maybe today is the day ***

[MercyGrace]

Passing one of these exams would give me that confidence to push forward. Hopefully AUD will be the one. 7 days and counting. I actually feel good about the material on this one. Any last week study tips?

BEC - 75 (Prayed Hard)
AUD - 85 (Thanking God!)
REG - 77 (Yes, Lord!!)
FAR - 4/20/12
