Hey, when you guys say you tried to sign up but couldn't, are you guys talking about at the prometric testing website or through your state board of accountancy? Also, do guys know if the loop hole works for folks in Oregon? We have to do everything through snail mail, and it's so slow.

@Ashley–No talk about being old! I've got more than a decade on you : ) Remember, learning is a lifelong process, so just enjoy the ride. I also work full time, with a hubby and 2 kids. I used Becker for AUD, but supplemented it with Yaeger CRAM and Yaeger audio. I listened to the audio when I was sitting in traffic in the am and pm (I figured listening to the audio would help reinforce items I studied). During my final review, I reviewed the Wiley chapters (that I ordered with Yaeger CRAM) and worked as many MCQ/SIMs as I could. I plan to use the same combination for FAR (Becker, Yaeger audio for the car/walking, and Yaeger CRAM for final review). It's probably overkill, but I've been out of school for a very long time. Good luck!!

AUD kicked my butt too. I too failed AUD on my first try with a 64.

My attitude when I failed AUD with a 64 was that my AUD exam score was just a progress report! I got to try again in the next testing window and I raised my score 10 points to a 74. I was within spitting distance! I studied AUD again for only 8 days and I passed with a 75.

Go back to square one and start all over again as if you had never taken an AUD exam. Failure is a better teacher than success. Now you know what does not work.

Amend to a long journey. Unlike most of you, I loved studying for the CPA exams. However, I have had enough for the time being. It feels great to be a free man! I am no longer chained to my computer. I, with God's help, passed all of the CPA exams within the 18 month time period, barely.

P.S. I am 64 years old! Next year I will be a licensed CPA! It feels great to start a second career.

Thanks so much, CPAexaminPA. It says”All or some sections of your NTS have been attended but scores have not been received.” Whatever that means……………

Someone mentioned this before, but is it confirmed that NASBA received the AUD scores? I have nothing on the VA Board site as of now, but I would expect it to show up Monday if the scores were already received. Thanks all,

FAR: Took 7/1/10 VA: 90
REG: Took 8/2/10 VA: 96
AUD: Took 8/31/10 VA: 96
BEC: 10/10/10

@ angela:

I am waiting on my REG score and OASIS says the same thing for me. Maybe the AICPA released some scores for AUD but not all? I know REG scores haven't been released yet. I am hoping to have them released by Wednesday or Thursday so that I know if I need to start studying again.

Good luck…hopefully you passed!

Good luck to you too! I see that a few people were able to re-register in GA, so I'm confused since it doesn't look like NASBA has officially released AUD scores. Oh well. I tell myself every time to not use the loophole, but I NEVER listen to myself (of course). Good luck to everyone. Hope we find out tomorrow.

Wow @Antarctica and @75 CPA, thank you very much for the inspiration and advice! I definately feel better. @Antarctica I think I would do well with using two study tools, I currently use Becker and my problem is that I have memorized the answers.

@gabitza

Thanks a lot. Wish you good luck on your results. I know how it feels to wait for the results through the weekend. Hope you will get your results early on Monday.

FAR 76 (04/10)
BEC 80 (07/10)
AUD 81 (08/10)
REG NOV 2010

IL candidate here. I have seen on here that candidates from IL have received their scores as early as yesterday. I checked once again tonight and it still says waiting for score!! So frusterating seeing that AUD is my last test! I am hoping I will find out early tomorrow morning? I have always received my scores as soon as other IL candidates and never have had a waiting for score message when NASBA has released scores!

[gabitza]

@Subam99

Thanks so much. Good luck to you too with REG in Nov. If I pass AUD, I will also sit for REG in Nov as my last exam. See you on the REG forum.

@JumpShot231

I am also an IL candidate and it looks like we are both on the same boat. I have not received my AUD score yet from IL (still saying waiting for score) and I have always received my scores as soon as they were released by AICPA. I guess we were not as lucky this time. Good luck to you on the AUD score!

[Ramona]

I am a NJ candidate and took the exam on 8/31. If AICPA released the scores on Friday, would we be able to see the results starting Monday morning or we have to wait until late at night? I have also tried to re-register in OH and it did not allow me. Hopefully this is a good sign. Good luck to everyone.

[gabe1475]

I believe you have to wait until tomorrow night. If you are in one of the states where the loophole works, that is a good sign.

FAR - 95
AUD - 82
REG - 94
BEC - 84

[Ramona]

Thanks, Gabe1475! I hope the loophole works, I have no idea for which states it works but I hope Jersey to be one of them and to be right:))
