    So, I am pregnant and have not passed one exam. I want to try to get three parts passed before I have the baby. Which sections would everyone recommend trying to pound out first? Thanks for the help!

    I would say start with FAR, but considering BEC and REG will become 4 hour long exams as of April 2017, I would start with those.

    I would do REG, then BEC, then FAR, and then AUD. Since we are approaching Q4, you can dedicate a solid 4-5 weeks for REG and sit for it around Halloween. Then, you can sit for BEC in early December. Assuming you pass those two, you can use all of December and even January to sit for FAR. Then, take AUD at the end of Q1.

    The Exam should be taken as 1)BEC 2)REG 3)FAR 4)AUD.

    BEC – a lot of cost accounting and cash accounting – Once done, nothing useful for the other exams.
    REG – some BEC stuff is in there, the cash accounting for tax purposes.
    FAR – The monster, just a lot of material to remember
    AUD – the simulation might have one or two adjusting entries question. – I had two of those :/

    All Exam Done - FAR 86, BEC 82, REG 86, AUD 78
