almost_there…I concur with blondeaccountant….which is know everything…sorry i couldnt be more help…But like you even said you should know why the answer is right/wrong….I supplemented my Becker study with the Gleim Test Prep CD…really good stuff for $55 ..the key is practicing MCQ and once youve memorized becker or whoevers MCQ they are kinda useless at least for me….the Gleim CD gives you more practice and analyzes your weak/best parts… By the end of it all I mustve done 3000 MCQ as practice (5000 for FAR) so this formula worked for me once before hopefully again….but once again…every topic was tested but I cant recall which one was more so.

FAR(11/09) - 83; AUD(1/10) - 94; BEC(2/10) - 83; REG(2/10) - 88

I am taking AUD on saturday, after failing in November with a 74. I am starting to feel pretty confident this time around, but I am worried that I am simply recognizing or memorizing the questions. An area of particular concern is planning, as all of my experience is in tax. Is there any advice anyone can offer? This is my final exam, and I am hoping not to take this exam a third time (for obvious reasons). Thanks and good luck to all!

audit was def the hardest for me. The other tests you can memorize information. This test, every single questions was all about thinking and doubting that i was being tricked. I hope I did okay

[shm_cpa]

Please can anyone provide the types of study materials published by wiley and its price. Is Wiley Review material and WileyTest bank seperate and has to be bought seperately.

FAR - 87 (10/01/2009); REG - 85 (10/05/2009); BEC - 88 (10/06/2009); AUD - FEB 2010

Those of you who are using Yaeger to study, are you reading the whole audit Wiley book? Do you think it's worth it? I'm thinking about doing it. If you did how long did it take? IMO Gary's lectures are ok but a bit all over the place so I think I need a better wrap-up and I don't want to buy the cram ( because I'm not a fan of Gary) so I'm thinking of reading the whole thing. Any feedbdack would be great!

will it ever end, if you are not spending two minutes on most AUD questions then two things could be happening. you are continuing to get medium hard testlets or you are not reading the questions enough. AUD questions should be where you can get down to two correct questions. it is deciding which one is the more correct answer. if you have three medium hard testlets that you can fly through then that is not a good sign. I took AUD three times before i passed. the first time, i motored through and left with an hour to go. I got a 66 for my troubles. When i finally passed with an 80, i took every minute. no subjects i didnt know but 1/2 questions i had to debate in my mind because the answers were so close.

REG 75, BEC 77, AUD 66,74,80 FAR 62,71,85 feels good to be done!!!!!

Blonde, i used the Becker Final Review to help me get over the top on AUD. you have to know the difference in compilation/review/audit down cold.

I took audit exam today. But does not feel good abt it. 1st testlet was hard, 2nd and 3rd testlet were relatively easy. 2 simulations were OK. I don't know wat do i expect. I found some questions too easy and some questions were difficult, where it seems every answer is correct. Tough part of the exam was duration. Its darn long exam and in addition u have to think too much for audit. I feel this section to be tough of all 4 sections.

I have a question about the research tab in simulation. Let's say my communication question in final exam is a compilation report. Will I be able to find it in the research tab? I tried with becker but it says wrong path. Do I see a wrong path sign in final exam when I find the right info like becker?

BEC - 82 Reg-87 Aud - 86 Far - 81 (THANX THE LORD)

rahulcpa – dont worry abt wrong path. u will not see that in real CPA exam. May be Becker has limited data, thats y.

[rahulcpa]

Question–I am seeing MCQs which require you to know ratios. Should I spend the time memorizing the ratios?
