Here is my AUD test experience. Test center staff very friendly and informative. I had been preparing for the exam for 3 and 1/2 months and felt really comfortable with the material. First and for I had plenty of time (4 and 1/2 hours) finished with about 40 minutes remaining. I felt the MCQ and Written part was fairly start forward had most my trouble in the simulations. For any first time takers I would recommend eating a healthy meal before the test (I started getting very hungry at the end of the exam). Now I am waiting for the my score which should be released in the 2nd wave around mid to late March!

Congrats on getting through the exam. Hopefully the waiting won't be too bad.

I took AUD yesterday and have no idea what hit me! This was my 2nd exam (I passed REG in Jan). When I took REG each testlet was I'd say medium difficulty. This thing was all over the place! I finished the 1st testlet in 17minutes and thought to myself “WOW, can this get any easier”? I even took a break to go to the bathroom and grab a drink of water. When I came back, it was like my computer said “Okay, Imma show you smat @$$” That 2nd testlet was from hell! I had to go to my take away 2 answers and pick best 1 from the other 2 several times. Then the 3rd testlet I'd say was medium difficulty. My SIMS were suprisingly stright forward and I guess we'll see how that translates into a grade at the end of the month… on to BEC & FAR

REG 1/26 (78) FAR (this spring/summer)
AUD 3/2 (praying)
BEC 4/2? (Studying for now)

I'm taking AUD tomorrow. I've done all HW questions 5 times and my last scores were all in the 90s. I've done the supplementals twice and ended up in 90s. Now I am doing the progress tests. Any other suggestions? I tried the Final Exam and was scoring in the 70s. I have heard the Final is way harder than necessary and am hoping thats the case.

AUD 95 (3/5/10); BEC 83 (5/28/10); FAR 71, 72, 74, 82 (10/16/10); REG 65,80(11/23/10)
ALL DONE 🙂

It sounds like you are prepared LSU….did you work on the flashcards? I went through all of the flashcards one more time the night before the exam.

I haven't had much luck with the flashcards. I do write my own notes and review those right before bed (night before test) and morning before I walk in to testing center. I am NERVOUS because I am coming off of getting a 71 for FAR in Jan (got score last week) and I am an auditor. I would like to say that just because you are auditor doesn't mean you know all the reports, etc. I audit federal compliance and there were maybe three pages on A-133 in the Becker materials. Still, if your an auditor and you fail audit people look you crazy.

AUD 95 (3/5/10); BEC 83 (5/28/10); FAR 71, 72, 74, 82 (10/16/10); REG 65,80(11/23/10)
ALL DONE 🙂

I think I have heard people say in this forum that they were auditors and had trouble with AUD. 71 on FAR….I know the feeling. It is a beast of an exam. I was relieved to see my 76 the second time I took it!

Hope I will have the same luck. 🙂 Audit tomorrow and FAR (again, ugh) April 5th.

AUD 95 (3/5/10); BEC 83 (5/28/10); FAR 71, 72, 74, 82 (10/16/10); REG 65,80(11/23/10)
ALL DONE 🙂

[Shawna]

Good luck on both!! You will do great on AUD this time!

Thanks, I sure hope so. Good luck to you as well. You took yours recently? Hope so, because I know waiting for scores is the WORST. I'm just glad I am taking mine on the second to last day of the window. I'm sure I will be posting my thoughts on my exam tomorrow when I get done. Hopefully, we can all move out of the AUD forum on the next one.

AUD 95 (3/5/10); BEC 83 (5/28/10); FAR 71, 72, 74, 82 (10/16/10); REG 65,80(11/23/10)
ALL DONE 🙂

Thanks Shawna, I guess we'll know by the end of the month that we passed! Good luck to you if you have any left, for me its on to BEC… Took AUD on Tuesday, I'm chillin until Sunday then going hard for 4 five weeks and hopefully will only have FAR left at that time, I'm looking forward to my summer without studying.

REG 1/26 (78) FAR (this spring/summer)

The only one I have left is BEC…..I think it will take me about 6 weeks to prepare for it. I too am looking forward to not studying this summer!
