[Scared-cpa]

I sat for AUD on 03/08 and found out I failed last week. Tomorrow I begin restudying. Should I go back through all the material as if I’ve never done it before or just do Ninja MCQ until I am trending like I need to be?

Since I’m wanting to give myself as much time as I need, I thought it would be best to start over from scratch. This is also what Jeff says to do. My only worry with this is that since studying wasn’t enough to get a pass the first time, why would it get me a pass the second time through? I’m just afraid Wiley CPAexcel isn’t fit for me, but I bought it and can’t afford another course.

However, I do have Ninja MCQ and will be utilizing it to the fullest. With my FAR retake, I literally only did Ninja MCQ so that is why I wonder if it’s what I should do for my retake with AUD, I’m just terrified of failing at this point.

So should I (1) Start over from scratch then finish the review with Ninja MCQ, (2) Only do Ninja MCQ until I am trending 85 and feel ready, or (3) Start over in studying AND simultaneously work through Ninja MCQ?

Since FAR, the only section I have passed so far doesn’t expire until 07/31/17, I’m wanting to take my time with the other three sections and give myself the bet chance possible of passing. So I am devoting all of Q2 to studying AUD. Ideally, I want to sit May 10, but I can extend that date until the end of May if I feel like I need to.

BEC - 82

Wiley CPAexcel + Ninja

I cannot believe I am done.

Man I sure hope so. With all these new changes, it feels like the AICPA doesn't want anyone to pass or something.

Just checking in….how's the studying going? I finally finished reading the entire book and I'm still writing the Ninja notes.

I'm tired of operating in fear and mediocrity. It's time to try. It's time to do. It's time to go.

I'm on lesson 105 in Wiley. I'm behind a few days, as I had a work trip this past week. I brought my laptop along thinking I would get time to study, but we literally were doing stuff all day long and into the night. So no studying 🙁 I've got a work function tomorrow night, so there goes that. Plus, found out today that one of my coworkers is quitting, and I back up her job. They're going to list the job asap, but I'm still going to have to pick up the slack. I was feeling good until today. My exam is scheduled for Friday, May 5th. At this point, I really can't move it. Here's to hoping!

How's studying going for you? Are you feeling pretty good? I see that you're going to take your exam just a couple days after I am.

Aww man, Meg267! You have a good amount of stuff on your plate right now, but I have faith in you. You can do it! Somehow some way you just have to find the time to “get it in”. I know it sucks, but it will suck even more if another 3, 6, 9, or even 12 months goes by and you haven't completed AUD.

You are completely right. I'm just sitting down now to study for the rest of the night. I still have a couple of weeks until my exam. I can catch up!
