Hey everyone! I have been reading comments on this site for a while but finally joined! 🙂

I recently found out I passed FAR which leaves only BEC and AUD remaining for me. So I want to gain some insight on what to expect coming up.

What were your guys experiences on REG/FAR compared to BEC/AUD? Should I refine my study habits differently for these exams?

Thanks everyone!

REG - 76 (pure luck)
FAR - 80
BEC - January
AUD - February or May

You've passed what most consider to be the two hardest sections, so keep doing whatever you're doing.

Just don't underestimate AUD and BEC and you'll be fine. It seems like many people forget that the pass rates are similar to FAR/REG, even if they are “easier”, then give themselves something ridiculous like 2 weeks to study.

I just started aud and im finding it harder than Reg but i was never good at any of my audit classes. So i might be no good.

Reg: 84
Aud: 84
Far: 81
Bec: 83

No more long nights...well due to studying for this test...

I kind of liked AUD (or at least it was my least least favorite exam), but my boss tells me (in fact he mentioned it again today) that AUD was the hardest for him because of there not necessarily being one right answer.

I liked that it wasn't all pure memorization and some parts required a little common sense.

I think that BEC and AUD are (or seem to have) less material than FAR and REG, so perhaps that contributes to people feeling they are not AS difficult (they're still hard) as FAR and REG.

Audit is easy, i really don't know how i failed last time 🙁 must be the sims, arg…………

but BEC, OMG, it was one of the hardest, don't under estimate BEC, you will be surprised.
