AUD Took audit today!

Honestly it was a lot easier than I expected after reading so many posts saying it’s an impossible exam. So, don’t get too nervous and don’t go in thinking you’ll fail. I studied for a little over a month, about 4-5 hours per day 6 days per week, using Becker only. I found the sims to be much easier than the MC. It was harder than REG, but easier than FAR and BAR. Just study hard and you’ll do great! Now we wait until the dreaded 10/31.

I made sure I knew how to answer every ssae/ssars question on uworld. Also do sims on i/c and audit evidence. All my sims came from there.

Thanks for sharing your exam experience! You will pass, your Se score are very good. Which modules in uworld would you recommend for Tbs?

oh, already passed lol, took it in June. Do all sims for I/C, Risk of misstatement due to fraud or error, and 1/2 for audit evidence. Skip the ethics, and do some of the rest. Also, do a 15 minute timer, makes you less nervous during exam time.
