Hi everyone,

I’m new here but I could really use some advice. Found out today I failed AUD with a 62 🙁 I’m not surprised because I didn’t study nearly as hard as I did for Reg which I passed in July with an 85.

My dilemma:

I’m scheduled to take FAR on 10/15 and BEC 11/27. I can’t push either back because my NTS’s will expire before I could take them in January, so I’m definitely stuck with those 2 next testing window. So when should I retake AUD? I have read a lot about how you should retake a failed exam as soon as possible while it’s still fresh. I really don’t want to start from scratch in December once FAR and BEC are done. Is it crazy to study for FAR and BEC one at a time as I originally planned while also working in review of AUD to possibly take by 11/30? 3 exams in one window seems crazy but if one’s a retake I’m hoping it won’t be impossible. At the same time I don’t want to risk failing one of the other exams because I’m trying to do too much.

Any advice will be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much!

I am no expert here, but if you started study FAR can you take audit first week in January? I'm just basing this on the advice I was given (I failed audit too) and it was suggested if I started the other material already to push audit back.

A - 61, 91!!
B - 78!
F - 76!!!
R - 71, 73, 74, 69, 77!!!!

Finally done!

This is my 2nd attempt at the exam, I had two parts passed (failed many) and I stupidly quit, big mistake. Now I'm back and with a vengeance!

I'm in the same boat, I just found out I failed aud. I have far scheduled for Oct 24 and Bec on Nov 28.

@LSNYC Yeah it looks like it's going to be January. I didn't want to sacrifice my December and everything that goes along with it for this godforsaken exam, but I guess I'll have to.

@taupat2012 I feel your pain. Sucks doesn't it?

It's one of the worst feelings that I've been through. I'm starting to get somewhat over it. I'm thinking about squeezing aud in this window, it's going to be tough with 3 exams in one window but it is doable.
