    My AUD exam is on 10/1 (this coming Saturday). Here’s what my plan is:

    Tonight – review A5 in Becker text. I’ve already been through all of the material once, and a second read-through with light note-taking seems to help a bit.

    Tomorrow – redo all A5 homework questions/do progress test for A1-A5

    Wednesday – redo all sims/do final exam(s)

    Thursday – ?

    Friday – ?

    I work full-time, so my study time is strained. I am thinking the last two days will be full of Becker final exams and multiple choice on cpareviewforfree….does that sound like a good idea?

    FAR 07/27/11 - 87
    AUD 10/01/11 - 85
    BEC 11/15/11 - 87
    REG 01/03/12 - 92

    I would say scratch doing the sims on Wednesday… Just pound MCQs/Final Exam Qs hard… Focus obviously on questions/topics that you are consistently getting wrong.

    My overall advise on test day after taking and passing both FAR and AUD on my first attempt(s) is:

    — Go through MCQs as quickly/efficiently as possible. If you don't know what the answer is after about 15-30 seconds after reading all the answers, either guess or skip it and come back later if you have LOTS of time left. Looking at the big picture, guessing on a few questions each testlet will NOT hurt your score if you are doing well on the others. What WILL hurt your score is if you waste an additional 5-10+ minutes on each testlet going over 2-3 questions you were unsure about. That time adds up and will end up screwing you once you get to the simulations (I almost failed FAR because of this…). It's all about min/maxing from my experience!

    Anyhow, hope that helps!

    AUD - 85
    FAR - 78 (lol@ FAR Sims)
    REG - 85
    BEC - August
