How does grading work for AUD? I know there are 7 questions – 1 being a pretest question and another being a research citation question. So that leaves 6 questions for 40%. It has to be weighted right? I can’t see a research citation being worth about 7% of the score, while another question has multiple parts to it.

Also, is there partial credit for the citation question? I seem to always be off by 1 paragraph.

Your guess is as good as mine (or that of anyone else) regarding the point value for the authoritative literature question; only the AICPA knows for sure. With regard to partial credit, I *think* that I recall hearing that partial credit was given (for example, you wrote ASC 220-15-5 and the actual answer was ASC 220-15-10), but I can't guarantee that response.
