I need some advice, or at least, some opinions.

I have passed FAR and REG, but I failed AUD, and I am taking BEC on 4/1. The scores for tests taken 4/1-4/20 will be released on 5/5, and I am trying to decide if I can revisit AUD from 4/2-4/19 and take it on the 4/20.

I started studying for AUD after the score release on 12/9/15, but with Christmas and NYE, I only studied about 16 days based on my records. I received a 71 on AUD, and I left with 1:30 on the clock. I felt good about the MCQs, but not so good about the SIMs, but obviously I didn’t do too well at either. After reading many posts on this forum, I now know to try to use the AL for the SIMS, which I will take advantage of this time.

If I start studying on 4/2, and the material is still fresh, can I up my 71 to a passing score in this short of a time frame?

Anyone have any similar experiences?

Thanks,

Why not be safe and just take it towards the end of May this way you definitely give yourself sufficient time to pass? I rather have a guaranteed pass and never have to look at the materials again than half-ass it essentially then be forced to fork over another $250 and dedicate even more hours to studying.

That's up to you but remember you have to get a 75, not just 4 more points.

It will most likely be a totally diff test from before.

-----------------------------
BEC - 77, 03/2015 (first try)
FAR - 79, 05/2015 (second try)
REG - 83, 12/2015 (first try)
AUD - 84, 03/2015 (first try)

I got 99 problems but the CPA ain't one.

i'm with Biggie62, it's better to reschedule if you aren't ready. i took audit 5 times all because i undermined it. look at the pass rates, it's neck to neck with far rates. i spent the most number of hours studying for audit than any other exams.

Licensed CPA since Apr 16
Order in sequence of passing
FAR-71,71,79
