Hi guys, I need your advise on my study plan. I plan to take FAR and AUD in the Q1 2014 testing window. My plan is to take FAR on 1/16, then AUD on 2/28. I finished reading the FAR Wiley book. I like to briefly read though the material one time before focusing on each topic. I am starting Becker’s video tomorrow. With this plan, it would give me 5 weeks to study AUD. Do you think it’s enough time? What if i take FAR on 1/22 instead and give AUD only 4 weeks? I’m not sure how many weeks i should dedicate to AUD. I’m not in the audit field so it scares me. I’m in the corporate finance, working full time. I can study for 4 hours a day. Please help. Thank you.

BEC - 10/1/13 PASS
REG - 12/6/13 PASS
FAR - 1/21/14 PASS
AUD - 2/27/14 PASS

The first time I took AUD I did a 5 week plan. Felt it was enough and failed by one point. Second time around I got 6 weeks in and passed.

5 weeks should be enough for AUD IF you are dedicated and disciplined.

Good luck.

AUD - (74),78
BEC - 85
FAR - 86
REG - 84

Like you, I took FAR first then AUD. I was using Becker Self-Study review course which only had 6 chapters. I was able to pass with 3 weeks of studying about 5 hours a day. My score probably is indicative of how muh time I spent studying, but hey a pass is a pass. I think 5 weeks is good enough, as long as your disciplined with your study schedule. I knocked out 3 chapters a week and left myself 1 week to review. Audit was also foreign to me because I worked at a tax firm. It's going to be tough, but doable. There would be times I had to re-read a sentence/section because the material seemed like a foreign language to me. Hahaha. Lol

FAR: 77 (08/07/13)
AUD: 78 (08/29/13)
REG: 76 (11/07/13)
BEC: 79 (12/06/13)
