So I am taking Auditing again in 2 weeks. Last time I got a 74% and completely lost it. I mean I was numb, I couldn’t breathe, They had it wrong! Mentally, I was drained and I even more disappointed in me. I knew all the answers it seemed, but those damn simulations. DAMN SIMULATIONS! I didn’t have time to finish and just put any answers in the last 3. So I started from scratch studying and this time I can’t even focus as much as I did before. I felt like I went in the exam last time knowing everything there is to know about auditing. I am telling you, I made up CPA songs about FAR (74%) and AUD (74%) since I took both and failed. I feel a little doubtful because I hate being an Accountant. What the hell was I thinking? Well, now I have all types of pressures to pass. I just keep telling myself I would make enough money to do what I really want to do once I pass this exam. I really need the strength to stay focus and keep going, I don’t think I can handle another failure.

When I took my last try at Audit, I said to myself I wont even know where to start studying again, because I thought I have done everything I could! 74 told me otherwise and boy was I wrong. I also started from scratch and bought videos(Yaeger cram). Never studied with videos before and passed the others, but audit is just so different. Try your best, it's all you can do, and don't give up. that's worse than failing.

Bless your heart. Just breathe,…..maybe it was the songs. I want to pass too but I don't feel like I am, but hey it's just a feeling. Come on you can do this no matter how many tries……

It begins with a 75
Been here too long as a cheerleader....ready to pass

Auditing is the devil. There are no words I have to accurately describe how much I truly hate auditing. It is slippery, sneaky, tricky, and ambiguous. As a lover of all things tax I despise anything I can't compute, schedule, reconcile, or journalize my way out of so I can 1000% empathize with your audit troubles. It took 4 attempts to finally pass auditing, so I promise that it CAN be done!!!!

Keep grinding out MCQS and Sims and be sure to RTMFQ 2-3 times before you look at the answer choices!!!!

REG: 75 DONE 🙂
AUD: 61, 71, 68, 92 DONE 🙂
BEC: 76 DONE 🙂
FAR: 72, 74, 79 DONE 🙂

I agree with everyone.. I sat AUD last week for the 4th time.. Each time i saw my result and i had failed i was mad too. AUD should be my stronger subject since i have done Auditing exams in two different countries and it was never an issue for me. CPA exams have taught me otherwise. Its frustrating and annoying.

Littlenumber is right, the worst thing you can do is give up. Just say i am going to get this exam done one way or another.. I shall concur it no matter how many times I have to sit it ! Say this to your self and mean it. You will succeed.

FAR 05/27/14; 786/110 - Done !
