I always got mine 2-3 days after I got my score. Just remember that you basically need to start from scratch and not focus on the score report results very much because you don't know how many questions of each topic were asked on your exam to come up with those results. Study all the sections like you don't know anything to begin with.

@Ninja Juice–I'm sorry about your REG score and your AUD expiration. The good news is that you've passed AUD once, you work as an auditor, you can most certainly pass it again. My suggestion is to start studying REG again right away. Start from scratch like you didn't just take it. I had to read the book for my REG retake, but I only read the tax chapters and skimmed the blaw sections that I was weak on after I started quizzing. I used the Wiley book. I read each section and stopped to answer the book MCQ. i didn't do any SIMS from the book. I went through the entire tax section of the book that way then I jumped to the Ninja MCQ. If I got it wrong I made notes on it. Go to the Q4 REG thread and look at our quizzing. It should help too. The most important thing is to make sure you are devoting enough time on your weak areas and not repeating the strong areas just to build your confidence. That was the biggest mistake I made when I failed REG in Q3. I didn't pound the weak areas until I understood them. I suggest going through the test bank in sections until you get through all the questions once, then move on to the next section instead of doing a bunch of random quiz sets. Focusing on one section at a time while you are doing the test bank MCQ helps reinforce the concepts over and over until you have a better understanding of them. If you start studying now you could be ready in the middle of January because you already have a good foundation with just having taken it. Then you could have a shot at AUD at the end of February. That leaves you April/May to repeat either if you need to, but I think you can get them both knocked out in Q1. I've never done my own taxes and I don't do taxes for my company. I only took one tax class in college. I had ZERO experience before this and I passed. You can too!! I jumped 18 points so don't let your score discourage you at all. Come back with a vengance!!

Congratulations to all who past and finished the CPA. I found out I got 61 AUD 🙁 on my first ever CPA exam, I thought I understood the material well. Does anyone have any idea how I can retake the exam?

[Anonymous]

passed* lol

[blueberrycpa]

@cpamommyof3: Thanks a lot. Can you suggest me how should i schedule my exams for the remaining? I have reg on 1/5/2015 and my nts expires in April. I don't work so I have pretty much all the time to study.

FAR- TBD
BEC - 75
REG - 76
AUD- TBD

[Karmash1986]

@Omarini, if I am not mistaken. It means that our scores are between 72-78! A human grader will regrade our written communication manually. They might push you above 75 or pull you down below 75! depending on how good you did in WC. they take into consideration your grammar, keywords, how well your essay/ memo is structured… etc

FAR- 79
AUD- 86
BEC- 27/11/2014
REG- ??

@CPAmaster–I failed AUD my first time through with a 65. I got an 85 on the retake! This is what I did.

1. I listened to the Ninja Audio every chance I got. It was a godsend for AUD!

2. I got the Ninja notes and rewrote them (combined with my own notes) once before the exam

3. I read the entire Wiley book to get the foundation I needed.

4. I quizzed over and over and over in my test bank and made sure I understood why answers were wrong, not just why the right one was right.

5. I used the AL for every SIM, not just the research ones. You can find entire answers in the AL for AUD.

6. Leave 2 hours for SIMS to give yourself time to search. Practice searching in your test bank, but know that the real exam will have the full literature and most practice test banks do not so don't get discouraged if you aren't able to do much searching while you are studying.

7. Practice the SIMS in your test bank. It's not a good idea to go into the exam without having some practice on SIMS, even though I know there are people that pass without doing a single one for practice.

AUD wording is tricky and the most important thing for AUD is to read the entire question and all the answer choices before making your decision on which one is right. Usually there are two good answers and you have to know which one is MORE right.

While doing the real exam I was miserable. i could always narrow it down to two answers and then had to make an educated guess. I really thought I failed. I cried a lot after that exam and then wound up passing. This exam is tricky and messes with your head. Try not to let it. I know, easier said than done.

Good luck! You can do this!
