    Hi, I know this is one of a long string of posts made after the score release this morning. I too failed Audit 🙁 and it’s an unfortunate feeling.

    I originally passed both FAR and REG in one try, but both were completed in the summer prior to starting work full-time. I didn’t study for AUD until after busy season but even then I found it challenging finding time to study efficiently while balancing work and life.

    I guess, I’d appreciate advice from people who were able to pass this while working full-time. I now understand why this exam is such a challenge. Trying to work and study is definitely not easy.

    Any advice on how you guys did it? And advice for restudying for AUD please. I got BEC in 4 weeks too.

    You can have Work, Life and CPA Study balance. Its all about prioritization.

    I passed REG and FAR while Working full time, being married, having a small child, a pregnant wife and owning a house. You have to schedule out your study time and stick to it. I too failed Audit, and I know where my mistake was, I had a lot of non-engaged study time. I did however have the time to do it.

    Just prioritize. Its easy for someone to say put your life on hold…. tell that to my 3 year old and 5 month old.

    AUD - 78
    BEC - 77
    FAR - 76
    REG - 80
    Texas CPA

    BEC - 77 (5/16)
    AUD - TBD (8/16)
    REG - 80 (1/16)
    FAR - 76 (8/15)
