Totally overwhelmed!!!! Many thanks!

@MylifeisCPA–thank you so much…and yes, trying to finish it off with REG!!! Crossing my fingers. I will be looking for good news from ya soon 😉

@Baseballcpa,75,– I can hardly flipping believe it. Monster is dead! Thanks guys!

@katie—WOW!!!! Nice cheer!!!! Thanks for all the support 🙂

@cpagenie– This was my 4th time, so I am not sure I am the best person to ask. I did all the q's in Becker first, then used the Wiley test bank, and supplemented with Bisk on sections that I felt weak on. Their audit book goes into great detail. I also reread the notes from the Roger Cram about 4 times in the last few weeks. I did this since most of the mnemonics I knew were from Roger. They stuck better than what I got from Becker in the first two rounds!! Honestly, be on the lookout for a thread by jenuno01. He said he was going to write a detailed post on how he went from a 74 to a 97!!! I think you probably want to see how he did it. Best of luck to you, Audit was really tough for me. Thanks!

@RedRage and Acct–Can you guys believe it???? Redrage–I am waiting to see how your Audit went, I am sure you will be celebrating too!!! @ Acct–thanks for always being so supportive!!! I hope my journey will end soon!!!

@yankeeaccountant,

Thank you for your suggestion. Do you mind sharing how you prepared for AUD simulation? Thank u.

@cpagenie,

That is a good question. The first 3 times I took Audit. I did every sim in Becker and then in Wiley. I think I used the AICPA released questions and sims the third time. This last time, I only reviewed some sims in Wiley. I wasn't methodical, I mainly did them in the last two weeks of studying. I have a hard time with this questions because most people on the forum generally say that spending time on mcq's is a better choice. That doesn't mean ignore them, just in comparison, spending more time on the mcq's is key. BUT, the consensus on Audit (and REG) seemed different in that people were saying they were so hard to prepare for, so i made a point to do as many as possible. So, I couldn't figure out what to do this last time, and well, time dictated that I couldn't spend alot of time on it, so I chose to work on mcq's mostly. I went through about 15 sims in total. I think the one thing I would say for certain, that reviewing the most recently released sims and mcq's from the AICPA is a great idea. I am definitely going to incorporate that for REG.

Again, best of luck to you!

You are so nice for giving me a detail advice. I totally agreed with you that we shouldn't ignore sim. I do agree that if we understand the concepts from practicing MCs, we will have easier time on sim. Sim is like a summary about things we learn from AUD. I have practiced Wiley for 3 times. Just got another software from Gleim to enhance my skills. Good luck on Reg to you, and you will do fabulously on the exam.

Oh my freaking gosh. I have never seen that video before. Had to watch it three times. “I feel….I feel….I feel…..happy of myself!” I hope I can feel the same way when the second wave of scores comes out.

Congrats Yankee! It seems like a good start to the year for a lot of people on here! Your dedication is inspiring!
