Hi Everyone I have failed audit twice with a 71 both times. I have used Becker and did all the lectures twice and mc questions twice and all of the Becker simulations and the final review. The first time I was weak on multiple choice and comparable on the sims and the second time I was stronger on the multiple choice and weaker on simulations. I am thinking I might need to supplement my studying with the Wiley test bank for audit to practice more simulations and extra questions. For thoes who have used Wiley, is the test bank helpful. Should I supplement with it or do you think Becker is enough. How similar are the questions for Wiley and Becker. I take the test 4/16. Any advice would be helpful.

Definitely a good idea to supplement with Wiley… I think that is what gave me a passing score on my 2nd attempt. Buy it from Jeff, it is cheaper on here 😉

You will find some similar questions, but Wiley has harder questions IMO, I also think their SIMS are a little more similar to what you'll see on the exam.

I totally agree with jenuno. Definitely supplement with the Wiley test bank.

On your first 2 AUD attempts, did you use the research tab for other SIMS besides the actual research one?

@jenuno01 Thanks 🙂

@ apbandj I did use the research tab for 2 of the simulations and the research question (I could not find the research question it was nothing I had seen before and was not an AU standard). I could not find the other 4 simulations in the research tab or they were too vague or it was my error and I did not search the right key words. I have been really working on how to better search with the research tab. If you have any suggestions on how to improve my research skills I would appreciate it. Thanks 🙂

I'll always say it was the Wiley Test Bank that got me thru AUD. And probably REG, too.

@ sarah – Great – just wanted to make sure you were using the research tab. That helped me tremendously!

The 2 best tools in the research tab are the Topical Index and the Search Within function. Using both of those should hopefully help you. Good luck!
