Becker Question –

Hey everyone,

I am taking the Audit exam January 3rd and will be starting to study next Monday.

My schedule now is to do Chapters 1-3 next week with 4-6 the following week, leaving me around two weeks to review.

Are the chapters manageable to get through when compared to FAR lets say? I just finished up BEC and I feel like I could easily do 3 chapters but FAR chapters took my a bit longer.

Thank you!

Considering there are only 6 chapters, you get by them pretty quickly. I definitely didn't think they needed to make this into a 4 hour exam and this is the reason why so many people finish quickly with a lot of time left on the clock. However, you should treat this exam just like you do with any other exam. Take your time and over study. The outcome will always be the same!

FAR - 86 7/2014
AUD - 95 10/2014
REG - 87 1/22/15
BEC - 84 7/2015

Great thank you for the reply! Will do the usual over study as much as possible as mentioned so I don't have to do this twice!

Definitely nowhere near FAR. I did two chapters a week while working full-time. You'll have no trouble doing this if you do not work or work part-time. If you work full-time, I would try to reschedule.

Like another poster said, treat this like any other exam and over study. I studied hard and still felt completely lost until the final chapter.

The AUD stuff is nowhere near as bad as FAR. It is, however, waaaay more boring. You might fall asleep once or twice.

I studied for my AUD exam in 3.5 weeks, too. Doing it in less time is definitely doable – I'm guessing you won't need the full two weeks for review.

FAR: May 1st, 2014 - 91
AUD: May 29th, 2014 - 97!
BEC: July 16th, 2014 - 91
REG: August 29th, 2014 - 88

Great thanks everyone, nice to know I will be ok. I won't have anything to do but studying for this since I am finishing up my last semester at school now and starting to work in January. Thanks again!

One of my friends, a Becker instructor, told me that the meat and potatoes of Audit is B3 and B4. B4, in particular, is tough to go through but if you can understand that chapter, you're on the right track.
