I'm taking audit tomorrow and I agree that nothing can really prepare you for the sims… I am just going to use the research tab to look up things I am not certain of
BEC - Feb 2012: 80
AUD - Feb 2012: 84

REG - May 2012: 90
I'm taking it Tuesday. Don't feel entirely prepared but not much else I can do at this point. Will try to get through some more MCQs tomorrow. Good luck!

I am taking mine on Tuesday. I will definitely be taking advantage of the research tab. A4 in Becker is killing me!! I have been looking over the sims, don't think it will help, but you never know.
Agree on Becker 4 – it's a killer; mostly the transaction cycles. I've given up on trying to understand all the cycles and focus on vouch/trace, overstatement/understatement and think what makes sense in terms of these.

What are you doing for last minute review? I will only have tomorrow night and trying to decide. Doing becker final exams since the questions are different than in the lectures (mcqs only). Then probably review ninja notes.

I'm taking AUD Wednesday. Going over aicpa released questions, reworking my notes and skimming the chapters. I'm practicing the sims no matter what (hopefully something hits and I'll get lucky). If I have time I'll go over the Wiley bank again.
For last minute review I will be reviewing my notes, the AICPA questions, and Becker MCQs. I could use another week or so but I am out of time. I do not feel as prepared as I should be.
Wednesday for me. I slacked too long so I have been relying on studying off Ninja Notes and Becker Flashcards and taking 20 Q quizzes from each section and retaking them until I'm at an 80. My final review I am going to incorporate Becker notes with Ninja and take comprehensive sim exams, and quiz myself with the AICPA questions
if I have time I may do some Sims just to strengthen some areas. Good luck everyone! Hoping this will be my first pass!

Becker, Wiley Test Bank, Wiley Text and Ninja Notes
"The fish who keeps on swimming is the first to chill upstream" -311
Experience - Done, like WAAAY done.
Still need 30 more credits, in basket weaving (gotta love new CA requirements)
Hoping for my 1st pass too. Failed REG with a 74 in January. For some crazy reason I though there were more sim testlets (yes, I have seen what the exam looks like prior to the test) so I exited the testlet and boom exam over in under two hours..bummer because if I spent more time to utilize research tab I may have pulled a 75.
Good luck everyone and keep the post going. I'm taking mine on Tuesday morning and will report.

HuslinHuslin in addition to quizzez I would recommend going both of the final exams. Some questions are similar, but some questions/answers vary. Not for the score, but to see what you get right/wrong and why – similar to the regular quizzes/progress tests.
