    Hey guys, so I took FAR a couple weeks ago and I’m pretty sure I didn’t pass. I have a full time audit position lined up for an early January start date and was wondering whether I should study for BEC or Audit to take in late November. I’ve heard from people taking audit after working in audit for a year or so makes the test a lot easier. However, since I’m going to be working in audit soon enough, I thought I would study for it and understand what audit is about via studying for the CPA exam so I can hit the ground running when I start working. What do you guys suggest?

    FAR - Studying
    AUD - 0
    REG - 0
    BEC - 0

    If it were me, I would study BEC next.

    I would study for audit while working in the field. Studying and working would feed off of each other. Also, it would be nice to have people around that could explain any concepts that you didn't understand while studying.

    AUD-PASS
    BEC-PASS
    REG-PASS
    FAR-PASS

    Audit. Or wait on FAR and study again before you start clock.

    BEC - 78
    AUD - 75
    REG - 74, 79
    FAR - 75

    I'd get a busy season in Audit under your belt before you take Audit. Start studying for BEC, with the intention of doing a refresher for FAR if you have to take it again. That way, you can retake FAR and BEC, if need be. Hopefully, you can start your new job in auditing with two exams under your belt.
