I failed FAR with 69 in July and just failed AUD with 70 after recent score release. I was surprised about the one point difference because I felt much better after AUD exam. Now I really think it is not about how you feel after the exam but the effort you put. I spent much more time studying FAR and only studied AUD for around 2 weeks with fulltime job since I lost motivation after failing FAR.

Anyway, I want to retake both in the coming test window and I am struggling which one to take first. I have been reading postings from this forum and still can not make a decision. And how many more hours do I need to pass both of them from the second attempt? Please help with advise!!!

start with aud given its more fresh in your mind then take far at the end of the window

I'd suggest dong just the opposite. Dive into FAR first and then AUD. Audit will feel super easy right AFTER FAR

Thank you. I feel there is no real correct answer for this. Besides the exam order, can you advise how many weeks for each? I did not prepare SIMs at all for both at first attempt. Shall I still focus on MCQs this time or more SIMs? Shall I rewrite notes again or just go straight to MCQs and SIMs? Thanks!

FAR has a way of finding what your weaknesses are and exploiting them. I do not believe the material is excruciating, but there is just so much of it. I can honestly say that only one of the “Major Topics” that is “Heavily Tested” I actually saw in a decent amount. I'm sure you already know which topic that is.

I passed by doing a thorough review of all concepts and then 4k mcq's at complete random, along with a complimentary amount of sims starting from my weakest subjects.

MCQ's help you cover the Most material at a time, but SIM's force you to fill in the blanks that most MCQ's sessions may not cover.
