I am sitting here stewing hoping that I passed BEC that I took on the 31st. One day I think I passed, the next I am sure I failed…..I obviously REAAALLLLYYYY hope I pass!

I have REG scheduled for July 18th, but I had taken and failed AUD with a 68 a few months back. The thing about the 68 is that I study much better when running MCQ’s and for AUD I just studied and did very few MCQ’s.

My question is this. I still feel solid with the AUD material, but just need to run MCQ’s out the wazoo! So do you think I could do AUD at the end of July if I rocked MCQ’s and SIMS the 7/19-8/13? Then that would give me a little over 8 weeks before going after FAR.

What do you guys think?

Whats wrong with your original plan of 8/29 for AUD, why push it up to 8/13?

REG- (1) 76
FAR- (2) 64, (5)74, (7)83 (Over achiever!)
AUD- (3) 70, (4) 75
BEC- (6) 75

I hate that feeling. I feel that way too. Felt I knew the material and then second quess myself. Sometimes it's just best to wait to see what you scored and then move on from there.

Except for those times you take one test the first week of the window, and then need to study the next test that you are taking the last week of the window.

AUD - Passed - 82 (10/1/13), Expires 4/1/2015 (57,62,64)
BEC - Passed - 77 (7/14/14) (53,67,70,74) Half way to CPA!!!!
REG - Passed - 81 (8/23/14) (68) 3 down 1 to go!!
FAR - Passed - 75 (11/11/14) I'm DONE!!!!!

Study as if you're taking it 8/13 but take it 8/29! By the time you get to 8/13 you will say to yourself only if I had one more week I'd nail the material. Better over study than under study.

FAR - 71, 68, 74, (8/31/14) 78 ✔
REG - 67, 71, 71, (10/18/14) 78 ✔
BEC - (11/29/14) 86 ✔
AUD - 73, (4/4/15) 86 ✔

I can't believe this is over! 2 years and 3 months..

Unless you're moving it up to make an earlier release wave then I don't see much point in moving it.

Yeah I guess you guys are right, I am just eager to finish…..maybe I should not count my chickens before they're hatched since I haven't even seen my BEC score yet 🙂

I understand the want to finish quickly, but I also think if you don't get take the adequate preparation time for each exam you will set yourself up for a higher probability of having to retake exams. I couple of weeks could make the difference between passing and failing. Take the time to ensure you pass on the first try.
