    obviously knowing the material inside in out is the way to go… and if you have everything down you will be fine on the exam.. but.. I have found the audit SIMS via Becker to be extremely easy and straightforward.. should I expect similar on the exam or should I be doing more deep dives into the material, such as key differences between issuers and non-issuers, break down of control environment, etc… please share your thoughts on the difficulty of the actual sims..

    also, as a tip to people out there, I didnt really do the sims for FAR when I passed, I just skimmed them and actually printed out the solution and skimmed them occasionally.

    To vent a little bit, I really think BEC should have simulations.. there is way too much material in Becker and a lot of the harder concepts would be so much better tested via simulation vs multiple choice. I just felt so confident going into that exam, and walked out feeling I was tested on 50% of the overall concepts I learned.. and very little of the actual hard stuff. pointless venting…

    FAR 11/13 - 78, BEC 1/13 - 82, AUD 2/23 - 94, REG 5/15 - 86

    I found most of the Becker AUD sims to be pretty straight forward and easy. I found the sims on my actual AUD exam to be a bit easier than the ones in Becker. The topics weren't the same, but the look and feel was.

    While some of the BEC stuff might be better in a sim I'll take the 90 MC questions and 0 Simulations and be happy.
