    I'm in for Feb. Hopefully not also having a BEC rematch in this testing window, but we'll see on the 6th. AUD will be my second test and I just started into the new Wiley 2014 study guide and DANG it is a big heavy thing.

    Hi, i understand this post is for 2014. However, i am taking AUDin dec 6 and really need help from you guys.

    Could anyone please tell me about the simulations (anything would help). I have done my research online but very little information could be found. My question are:

    How many sims (out of 7) that you actually use the authoritative (research) tab?

    I have done a few simulation in Wiley but i find that it's not necessary to do the research tab (or information is not available there).

    I am really in need of your help.

    Thank you

    BEC (11/02/2013)- 90
    AUD (12/06/2013)- 75
    FAR (01/04/2014)- 84
    REG 69, 74, (waiting for 11/23/14)

    It really depends on the type of simulations you encounter, you will be able to answer your research questions by using the AL. You can meet 2 research questions depending on how lucky you are ( that doesnt mean you will be able to find the right answer to all 2).

    I took AUD recently and I found one of my simulations word for word in the AL, Im not sure if I got my research question right cos its still haunting me whenever I go to bed.

    I also realised I could have utilised the AL for some two other simulations, but I only got to know that after the exams when I was going through my review materials.

    Give your self enough time for research on almost all the simulations, it will pay off.

    Dont be nervous, I developed the same attitude and it didnt work well for me.

    Even when I was using the AL, I though l was reading Latin because of too much info in the AL .

    My MCQs were ok because Gleim and WTB helped a lot in that aspect.

    I will go beserk if I pass on friday,

    Hey everyone! So I'm going to be taking AUD on Feb 1 and was wondering if this book would be ok to study for the new standards. https://www.amazon.com/Wiley-CPAexcel-Review-Auditing-Attestation/dp/1118734211/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1386115247&sr=8-2&keywords=audit+wiley

    I also got the AUD Ninja notes but there's only 3-4 pages on the new standards which really worries me that I wont be prepared since in 2014 the old standards wont be tested. Any advice on how I should proceed? I do have my 2012 AUD material but i doubt that would help me at this point. Am I unnecessarily freaking out?

    Hello everyone, I'm planning on sitting for the test January 17th. I purchased CPAExcel towards the end of October, but didn't plan on sitting until January due to my hectic schedule. This was prior to doing additional research, and now seeing that new material would be tested starting Jan 2014. I'm already about 40% through the material based on CPAExcel's projection and was wondering, should I postpone? I will also start a live CPA review course with my school in Jan for FAR since it counts towards my degree…I'd really rather not postpone, however does anyone believe it would be best to do so?

    Any guidance would be helpful!

    FAR - 89 02/27/14
    REG - 88 04/30/14
    AUD - 90 7/3/14
    BEC - 87 8/30/14 DONE!
