is it ok to prepare for Auditing & FAR together. I am using Becker & planning to spend 2 months (togehter) & 40 hrs a week. Plz give me your valuable tips- will it be sufficient?

[ScruffMcGruff]

Are you intentionally trying to take both tests near the same date? Why not just study FAR one month, take the test, then study and take AUD the next month?

If you are simply studying for one test each month (and studying 40 hours a week), I think you should have plenty of time to do both.

AUD - 85
FAR - 78 (lol@ FAR Sims)
REG - 85
BEC - August

B'coz I can't keep on studying the same subject whole day & i feel Auditing is very boring( so many words………….)

that's why I thought of preparing 2 subjects together. that's it

@Jasbeerch – I don't think “b'coz” it's boring is a good reason to cram them together like that. If you unintentionally set your NTS up that way and you were running out of time, that's one thing, but this seems a little silly. I think you're setting yourself up for failure…these exams require your entire focus and energy and splitting your study time seems like a bad idea, in my opinion. But then again, that's just my opinion…

I think you're better off studying for them one at a time. I know you may not like it, but you may just have to wrangle up all the adult focus you can muster and bang it out. Best of luck to you.

(if i dedicate 40 hrs a week for 3 weeks). please give me your suggestion

I think AUD in 3 weeks is possible if you have that many hours of quality study time available. The key word is “quality” and not just half-a$$ studying for the sake of getting in a certain # of hours. AUD goes the quickest because there's hardly any calculations, and you can fly through the practice MCQ's. Like others have said, I would not recommend studying for more than 1 section at a time unless you have no other choice. In my experience, I've had a hard enough time keeping everything straight for one section and know I'd be in the looney bin if I was doing more than 1 at a time. Remember slow and steady wins the race!

Thanks for the suggestion apbandj.

I am planning to watch lectures & then prepare my notes. after reading my notes, work on MCQ's. go for next chapter.

Is this plan good.? give me suggestions for how to study? appreciate your help

[jasbeerch]

i have one more question apbandj.

Do I have to just concentrate on whatever gearty mentions in the lectures?

Or shud I go through the book myself & read all the material?

I used Yaeger, so I'm of no help to you regarding your specific course. Are these your first exams or have you already taken BEC and REG? An important element in passing these exams is figuring out how you study best, and it will really take you some extra time during your first section to identify that. I discovered that I learned best by listening and watching someone else do it. So I watched most lectures at least twice and even bought the Cram courses for FAR and REG. I also learned that taking notes didn't do much for me. I took pages and pages of notes for FAR and never looked at them again after taking them Talk about a huge waste of time! There does seem to be a general consensus from most people on this site that you should supplement your study materials with the Wiley online test bank. Good luck!
