I’m preparing for my 3rd retake of Audit. Last month I got the Wiley Text book which has tons of MCQ and practice sims at the end of each chapter. I’m wondering if the questions in the text are the same as what’s in the online test bank. I’ve already spent a small fortune (as I’m sure most of you have) on exam fees and study materials. I’d like to minamize costs if I can use what I already have.

I'm not sure how 2014 looks, but they are different for 2013. There is some overlap but not a ton – at least from what I've seen. Someone feel free to correct me if you're seeing something different. 🙂

No, they are not just the same questions. Not sure about 2014 test bank yet (still working off 2013 book and getting ready to hit questions on 2014 test bank), but for 2013 I thought the questions in the book were actually a bit harder than in the test bank. I like to work through the questions in the book while really learning and reinforcing the material, then go to town on the test bank to get ready for the test. The Wiley test bank really does resemble the actual testing software pretty well, so it helps me get used to it before the actual exam. I would think you'd probably be ok without getting the test bank and just doing the questions in the book, but you would probably increase your chances of passing with the software.

FAR - 75
AUD - 72; 87
REG - 64; 74; 84
BEC - 88

Done!!
