Hi everyone! I need some advice on how to handle my remaining exams. I just failed REG a second time with a 72 (received a 73 in November) – I felt like I knew the important topics pretty well but was tested on obscure things. So my question is: I have REG, AUD and FAR left, with BEC not expiring until February of 2018. Should I retake REG at the end of April (can’t take it any earlier due to tax season hours) and then try to cram AUD in by the end of May? I’m a bit of a slower learner so only having one month for AUD intimidates me, but I really don’t want to have to wait until July to take it. Any thoughts/advice is appreciated!

It just depends on how you feel about AUD. Did you take an audit class? If so, how did you feel about it?
I can tell you that I always knew I would struggle with audit because I hated my audit class. It was so hard to study for that section. I probably studied over 2 months for it. If I get a failing score today (or whenever the CBA decides they have tortured us enough) and have to restudy for audit, I will hobestly vomit.
Anywho, I know people who thought audit was easy and got it done in a month but they liked their audit class and did well on it.

I did take an audit class a little over a year ago; I didn't hate it or love it, but it definitely wasn't something I found easy!
Thanks for your input – let me know your AUD score when you get it. I really hope you passed!
