I’m seeking some advice on what to do in the next five days if it is at all possible to pass AUD. I’m using Becker and currently on the homework for A4. This is definitely the most trouble I’ve had with homework so far, with almost all my other first attempts being in the 70’s and 80’s. I still have to finish A5 and A6 entirely, and assuming I can get those done by the end of the day Saturday, I will have Sunday-Tuesday to review before sitting for my exam Wednesday.

Is there any chance in hell for me passing this? How do I approach all of this? Not passing would be horrible as I already failed FAR, my first exam, by 2 points. I will take any advice on what to do the next few days. Thanks!

daninad,

If you're only on A4 in Becker (a hugely important area with much potential testing on the exam), I would strongly suggest you push back your exam date. To finish A4, then study A5 & A6 sounds nearly impossible in 5 days, especially if you want to leave yourself time to review. I gave myself 2 weeks for review when I took it, doing dozens of progress tests and focusing on my weak areas. I passed with a 77, but it wasn't an easy feat. Unless your NTS window is about to close, I think you should push it to the end of the August (since September is a black-out month).

AUD - 77
FAR - 78
BEC - 68; Retake 4/25/16
REG - 5/28/16

Do as many MCQS as you can. Focus a lot on Compilations & Review and Professional Responsibilities.

FAR - 75
AUD - 78
BEC - 82
REG - 77

Our value does not come from our skills and abilities, as good as they may be; it does not come from our GPA, our job, a promotion from that job to a better job, our success on the CPA exam, or anything of the like; but our value comes from the fact that we have a Creator who loves us, cares for us, and desires to help us navigate the rough waters of this life in a way that provides security, hope, and true, everlasting joy while we anticipate the life to come, with Him.

I have to agree with @cmason.runner86. You're within the 5 day window to reschedule for only $35. If I were in your shoes, and I have been in the past, I'd push it back another couple of weeks.

FAR - (11/01/14) 71 (02/07/15) 79
AUD - (04/30/15) 86
BEC - (07/21/15) 73 (10/01/15) 75
REG - (11/30/15) 55 (05/19/16) 74

Thanks for the input guys, although I can't say that it made me feel any better. My options are

1) take AUD on Wednesday and have 2.5 weeks to study for BEC or

2) Push AUD back and take BEC, FAR retake, and REG all during my final semester of school before starting full time in January. None of my options look fun, but I don't want to fail both BEC and AUD

I studied all 6 chapters and still ended up with a 71. Chapter 5&6 is definitely important you to know.

You can take AUD on Wed. There is 50% chance you may pass. If not you will have to retake AUD, FAR and REG during your final semester. You are better off pushing back your AUD and BEC exams by couple of weeks. (just my thought)
