Not sure how much it has to do with it. But I studied for AUD about 2 months exactly. Bought a condo in between – and moved in. I was billing an average of around 60 per week.

I got my highest score…Granted, I do assurance so that helps some, but the overlap is not as significant as one would believe.

Just a timing to idea for those out there in public. Might be a good test to fit in.

That's a great score! I am studying on AUD now. Hope to do well in that!

What do you think is the most difficult part in AUD?

Encouraging people to take exams at a time of year when they will have the least amount of available study time doesn't seem like sound advice to me. With your 60 hour weeks, how much study time were you able to put in?

@JMG i think hes implying that less people will be taking it, making it easier to be part of the 43% who typically pass audit.

Maybe so…I scored a 96 w/no assurance experience

Not always true. I studied 3 hours a night during busy season (6 on weekends) and scored 72 which is not what I expected. I was trending higher on Ninja for the retake. Having less time and stress from work didn't go too well. Its doable but not for everyone. I studied for 7 weeks.

Hi, @cjsoccer3, can you please share how you manage time during the period when you have to look for houses to buy and at the same time do the CPA review and work?

I am currently in the exact same situation!! Looking for a condo to buy and move in.

Any advice is appreciated. Thanks!!
