    I want to take FAR & Retake AUD (73) in the Q4 test window as these are the last exams I need to take. I have already finished the Roger course for both (most recently finished FAR). I did not watch any videos for Roger AUD though (this may have been where my 2 points went) so I will do that now; but my main question is how should I review for each test and how should I approach tackling two exams in a relative short period? Thinking of taking FAR 11/26 and AUD 11/28. Would have a little under 4 weeks. Any thoughts or recommendations are appreciated!!

    p.s. feeling confident with FAR (I am at the repetition phase) and I took AUD Q3 on 9/10 so everything is not completely forgotten.
    Thanks! x)

    Short Answer: MCQs

    Long Answer: Do a large spread of MCQs (like 100 random selected) and then see where you're weak and review those areas. Then take some MCQ tests specifically on those areas, and see if there's an improvement. Then repeat again and again. Don't neglect the long questions (do some samples questions) but from my experience the long Q's are all covered by the MCQ practice and its really only question format that will trip you up. Do the practice tests and AICPA tests on alternate days in the week approaching the exam (do full exams on Monday, Wed, Fri) and revise on the other days. This is my approach, but anything works as long as you have a plan

    FAR 11/26 and AUD 12/10 or as close as you can get to the end of the window.
    Focus 100% on FAR, massive amounts of MCQs. Watch the videos for sure. 40 hours of video for FAR, and the video lectures are 85% of the reason to buy Roger's course to begin with.
    That would leave you about 2 weeks after FAR to cram for your AUD retake. Again, highly recommend the AUD videos. I passed AUD in 3 weeks by watching the videos and doing 1000 MCQs and I have absolutely no experience in audit.
    The FAR materials, plus your AUD refresher should be enough to push you over the edge.
    If I were you I would watch the videos, then do as many MCQs as you possibly can before your exams. Also the AICPA sample tests are a must.
    Good luck!

    UPDATE: I was not able to schedule the retake in Q4 so did it last quarter. Took FAR on 3/7 and AUD on 3/9 and passed both with a 82 & 87!
