Hi guys, so got my audit score back this morning and got a lovely 74! This was my second time taking it.

The first time, I got a 63, which shocked me because I thought it wasn’t half bad and I’m an auditor full-time.

My first go around, I used Becker self-study, the second time, I supplemented it with Ninja. This bumped my score 11 points, so I will definitely try using it again (hopefully I don’t memorize the questions).

Second time, the exam felt more manageable in regards to the simulations – they were absolutely horrid on my first exam. It kinda sucks because I thought this exam was straight-forward enough to pass and I can’t imagine if they were to throw a hard exam like they did the first one, I would pass it, since I failed the second time.

What would you recommend in order to pass a third time? I heard some stuff about the Becker final review, but for $165, not sure if I wanna buy it since I already have the Becker self-study. I may just supplement with Ninja and Becker again, but take more time doing Becker questions (last time, I just read the book and took notes and did all MC via Ninja)

Any recommendations?

FAR - 71, 78 (Becker Self-Study)
AUD - 63, 74, 90 (Becker Self-Study + Ninja MCQ)
REG - 75 (Becker Self-Study + Ninja MCQ)
BEC - 80 (Becker Self-Study)

Not sure about AUD but using Ninja Notes for FAR made a world of difference for me. Don't expect them to get real in depth but they will give you the overview that you just might need to bump you up a few points. They're bite sized statements that are easy to remember and, mostly, painless to read. Only $67 so they're very manageable in price too.

FAR: 80 (Gleim, Ninja Notes, Ninja MCQs)
REG: 87 (Gleim, Ninja Notes, Ninja MCQs)
BEC: 87 (Gleim, Ninja Notes, Ninja MCQs)
AUD: 8/27/16
