    Can someone please share your thoughts on navigating the AL for the audit exam? Everyone says with enough time you can look up all the sims, but I am having trouble finding the answers in the AL except for the research question. For my practice exam the sims were to either identify the types of risks or identify management assertions and the type of procedure to mitigate the risks. Can you look up these types?

    AU-C 315 .A128 refers to the assertions.

    I haven't used the AL on a test for anything other than the research question. I don't think it would have helped anyway.

    I have used the AL on my passes, especially for AUD, and it helped. I would suggest knowing how the AL is structured. You can go to the topic you need and see examples of useful documentation. If you do not know the section to find what you need, it is difficult to use the search feature and have any luck. It wastes too much time.

    How can you look these up to practice if Ninja and even Becker does not have AU-C 315 .A128 in the software?
