Just wanted to share a few things on my AUD experience (scored a 93)

1) Do not waste your time trying to gauge your testlet difficulty. It means nothing. I felt the testlets went easy/easy/easy. A hard question will be easy if you are prepared and know the answer. An easy question will be hard for you if you don’t know it. Stop thinking about testlet difficulty!

2) Studying for the SIMS is impossible. I was able to answer the SIMS based on audit/accounting work experience and using the authoritative literature. No amount of studying would have helped me on the sims.

3) I did about 4,000 MCQ (a lot of repeats) and felt it helped a lot. Seeing the same question 5 times enabled me to nail down the concepts.

@allaboard
SSARS provisions does not apply if you are an employee of the company. independence is not the onlyy issue, compilation of FS doen't require independence but requires disclosure, howver if you're an insider (employee) you don't have to disclose such info

As for the lower AR turnover ratio, option D says that the employee was lapping in both years, so it's unlikely that a significant decrease in AR ratio would be due to Lapping. which makes option A the best answer

@crush- I never memorize. I try to understand all concetps. By doing thousands of mcq, I'm able to recall any important formulas. Sitting there with 90 indexcards trying to memorize things is a bad startegy IMO.
