So, I passed FAR in Feb and BEC in May…

Any recommendations on which to tackle next? I think I’m leaning toward AUD. I’m probably looking at either the very end of August or the very beginning of October as a target date.

I wouldn't say AUD is “easy” by any means, but it's less material and more straight-forward than REG. If you're looking for a little relief, take AUD. Also, there isn't any overlap of FAR information with REG, so no biggie if you postpone it until later. But, honestly, if you already succeeded in FAR, nothing is going to be that difficult 🙂

AUD: 84 - Oct. 2013
BEC: 83 - Feb. 2014
REG: 91 - May, 2014
FAR: 68, 96 - Oct. 2014...DONE

Theres a little bit of info overlap between FAR and REG if I remember correctly…deferred taxes, partnership accounting, and nonmonetary exchanges. I would take REG first to get it out of the way and then do AUD…I took FAR a year ago and failed, then came back to it a year later and I still picked up bonds & leases fairly easy as my memory came back. You wont forget enough that the overlap in audit will be hard to pick up in a few months.
