should I retake this in the next testing window or try to take FAR before IFRS is put on it?? I am on the fence.

FAR - 56,65
Audit - 73,86
Reg -
BEC - 67,68,71

Can you take FAR on 11/23 or so, and take AUD on 11/30? Times will fill up quick, but if you live close enough to multiple testing centers, you could find availability.

I don't think AUD will take much time to restudy for, especially if you dedicate your holiday time off to studying. You're close enough, and it's just a matter of memorizing. Not too many concepts/calculations to learn…

Personally, that's what I would do. I would reapply for an AUD NTS as soon as possible.

No, I have to take BEC by November or else I will lose my NTS for it since I signed up for it a while ago….

So I guess my options are this:

a. take FAR in October, BEC in November and AUD in January

b. take AUD in October, BEC in November and FAR in 2011

c. lose BEC NTS, take AUD in October and FAR in November

FAR - 56,65
Audit - 73,86

Those are tough options.

Since September is a closed month, you could schedule AUD on October 1 and FAR on October 31. That gives you 1 month to study for each section. If you want to maximize your time studying for BEC, you could reschedule it now for ~$35 (not sure), and push it back to the end of November.

My Becker instructor recommended taking AUD and FAR this year because those two exams are changing the most. I believe the grading split will be 60% multiple choice and 40% simulations. You do not want 40% of your test to be graded based on those simulations; it's 20% now (excluding writing).

BEC is changing a lot too, but in my opinion, it is getting easier. I believe (not 100% sure) BEC will just have multiple choice sections and 3 writing sections (of which 1 is graded). I believe that writing section will be worth 10 points. Considering the way it is graded, it is essentially 8-10 free points.

That's good advice…. I am gonna try my best to do that…. I am waiting on my AUD NTS, I applied this morning and I hope it comes soon….. now all I have to do is go into a study coma for the next 3 months……
