I am waiting on FAR and AUD results, but wondering what everyones game plan is for Quarter 2 and the loooooooong wait to find scores. I am hoping to bounce back from a 69 & 67 for a victory in FAR and AUD this quarter, and then have BEC and REG for Quarter 2. If all goes as planned, I will take BEC and REG in quarter 2, but wondering if I should then take a break until score release or just keep studying those topics for a possible retake mid August. What is everyone else’s plan?

I plan on taking AUD in very beginning of April then possibly REG by end of that testing window (if I have time). There is no sense in taking a break, might as well keep going…

[Good Lordy Me]

I'm pressing on too, who cares about the wait, we have to move and move on to the next one folks.

My game plan is to pass AUD on March 9 and not have to worry about it. I'm seriously gonna need to go to a shrink if I have to suffer through the new exam and long score release period..

Goodluck @needsa75! I guess I should have clarified my question on game plan…looking for what people are doing if they are waiting for that long score release to see if they are done. Ex: Passed AUD & FAR, and take REG and BEC in quarter 2…then are you going to study for possible retakes during those 10 weeks or relax for those 10 weeks then study depending on results..

I still have three more exam to pass and am stressing over the long score release time. My firm is super busy during tax season, so trying to take an exam then would not be a good idea. I am going to take REG ASAP after tax season and then plan on taking BEC and FAR during the third quarter. I have until July of 2018 which isn't too bad for time, I am just hoping I pass at least two of them the first time!

BEC ?
REG?

So I'm about to rant a lil bit… If i don't pass reg tomorrow night during score release… I should have 3 more shots at it in theory. but if i take one in april/may… I wont get my score back until the end of the Q3 testing window with little to no time to get an NTS/sign up and take the test. I passed the first 3 easily ill be pretty ticked off if I lose a shot to pass the whole thing.

Did they ever say if they were pushing out the 18 month window? Total BS that they could have a score release this long and not extend the 18 month window

[ShutUp]

i mean the 18 month window is one thing, but why do they have to make the long score release cover an entire window?

It makes the process extremely unfair for those with 1 test left. Noone said this had to be fair, but this is a pretty big disadvantage

its nuts, I take my first exam at end of April and will literally be 2 weeks before my 3rd exam based on my current schedule before I know if I have passed FAR and REG (beginning of July) than be studying for BEC at end of Aug which is a week or so after the Aug 16-18th score release for Q2

Last test is AUD that I already failed for the 4th time on Q1 (72). If I do not pass AUD this time, my REG expires on 8/20 so I am doing everything I can to pass this time around. I am not currently working so I plan on enrolling in a MST program.

[NeedsA75]

^^^Your post does not make me feel better as my last test is AUD! What material are you using? Why do you feel its been a struggle for you to pass this section?

[jivexturk3y]

I think I am having the most difficult time with this test because it's so conceptual and 0 math. AUD was the first test I took and I have continued to take it every quarter, and failing, while passing the other tests in the process (passed FAR and REG first try, failed BEC with a 73 first time when I spent 2 weeks on it). What really sucks is that I was using my friends Becker that expired in Nov so I am only using my notes and NinjaMCQ.

To start with, I'm really hoping I pass FAR this quarter. I'll find out March 22 I think so I'm waiting until then to register for my last two sections. If I don't pass then I'll be taking two sections in Q2.

I'm planning on testing probably in May and then in July. I know you never really know how good or bad you do until you see your results, but I'm going to go with my gut. If I think I did poorly, then I'll probably keep reviewing material after July. I really want to be done in July though so I can have one month of summer to enjoy, so I'm hoping I'll have a pretty strong gut feeling that I passed both so I can just hope for the best and relax until I see my scores.

I wonder how difficult it will be to get a Q4 test date with so many people waiting until August and September to find out scores.

Good luck everyone!

I just took audit this past Monday and am currently studying to take FAR in April. If I fail audit, I will have to take it again in May which will fall into the long score window as well (including my FAR score).

I think I am going to take a look at my study materials in August just in case I need to schedule a retake with the 10-15 days I have left in August after the score release. I imagine a lot of people will suddenly schedule a lot of retakes in late August, on top of the people who are just normally taking the exam, so I hope that there will be spots open. If not, then I will have time to study in September while I wait for the Q4 window.
