    Jeff_A…I am in the same boat. The first time I got a 70, the second time I got a 71. I have studied and studied and I am lost too. I only have audit and financial remaining but auditing is doing me in and I am so disappointed right now that I feel like just giving up because I don't know how to study for it now. Plus, my Becker materials have expired.

    As someone who failed Audit twice with the same score, I completely understand your disappointment. In my opinion, it's easily the trickiest exam. The first two times I took it I walked out feeling ok but the third time I walked out feeling like there was no way I passed and I did.

    I was using Becker the first two times, and then switched exclusively to Ninja products for my third re-take. In my opinion, it made all the difference. Seeing different questions presented in a different format helped me nail down my trouble spots and hone in on my weaknesses. And the adaptive learning sessions were key to my success. I was forced to tackle weak spots.

    So, my advice is to try varying up your study materials. And take MCQs super slowly and analyze every choice for each question. Talk through why an answer is right/wrong and then jot down important notes in a notebook to remember for later. Understanding the concepts behind auditing is definitely the key rather than memorization.

    But moreover, don't beat yourself up! It's a feat in and of itself that you've already done one re-take. You picked yourself up before, brushed the dirt off, and kept going. So, you just have to do it one more time before you can walk away with a passing score.

    I failed audit for 2nd time too. Got 62 (Feb)vs. 68 (Nov) attempt. Am not sure what to do again. I used Ninja MCQ's and below is my stats.

    Trending = 98%

    Avg = 82%

    Actual = 62%

    I don't think I memorized my answers. I was able to logically think it through and work it out.

    I failed AUD for the 2nd time (ARGGHHHH!!!). 1st time = 73, 2nd time = 71. I really boned up on concepts and MCQ for the 2nd go-around. My scores for the 2nd one reflected this — as my score went from Weaker to Stronger and of the 6 areas, I scored Stronger in 4 and Comparable in 2.

    However, my SIMs score went from Stronger to Weaker.

    What do you guys think? Bad break on SIMs?

    I got a 74 for a 3rd fail. I know it was the Sims without even seeing the detailed score report. So frustrating.

    I felt prepared in the exam and afterwards. I honestly thought this would be my best score. On prior exams I felt uneasy and like it would be close. And they were indeed close with 74, 72, 71. I got a 68 on AUD, my worst score.

    NInja notes, audio, and QUESTIONS, are very helpful tools and instrumental in me passing any my tests. The Questions are amazing, and I only had access to them for my 3rd attempt at FAR.

    REG- (1) 76
    FAR- (2) 64, (5)74, (7)83 (Over achiever!)
    AUD- (3) 70, (4) 75
    BEC- (6) 75

    @rp 12

    How many ninja questions did you complete? Our scores look very similar and I took the aud exam yesterday and felt BEYOND AWFUL. On Ninja I completed all the questions and then went through all the ones I got wrong and answered them correctly.

    Before I went back and redid questions My average score in Ninja was a 79% my trending score was bouncing between 82-84% I took two practice test one in gliem one in Ninja I scored an 87 and a 85. Once I redid questions my trending score went to 100% but a more accurate reflection of it is probably low 80's.

    @ajmallie – My trending score was 98%, avg was 82%, and total MCQ's attempted was 2,723. I did all the MCQ's except Sampling (just could not get it). Tried my best for that chapter. Also went over all the SIMS once. I also went over the wrong questions over and over again.

    This exam really frustrates me. I just feel like if the exam is really designed the way they say it is with this “item response theory” people who average 80%+ on over 2k questions shouldn't be not passing. Sorry you didn't pass.

    @CPA soon sorry to worry you. If it helps I just took the test yesterday and am still grumpy because I have two credits that drop off if I don't pass. So I could just be overreacting.

    yikes, I am getting worried too. this was my 3rd attempt at audit. I took my time and read every question very carefully. I felt like the mc was pretty easy, and my sims were the easiest i have ever gotten. I have been feeling so confident I passed, but this thread is sending some doubt. Come on 75!
