    Becker Question –

    I’m studying for AUD right now. I’ve been reading through posts on here and I keep hearing that you can use the AL to assist you on the SIMS test let. Obviously I know how to use the AL for the research questions, but can someone explain how to utilize the AL to help with the SIMS? The table of contents in beaker’s AL tab only includes the AICPA Professional Standards..does the actual exam provide more than just this?

    Thanks!

    The actual exam has a lot more than the review courses.

    Yeah, when I took REG after practicing it on CPA Excel I was surprised at how much more was on the exam and the different formatting of the search results. This was the case for Audit also. Sometimes SIMs in Audit ask for exact wording of some form of a letter and you can look that up in the authoritative literature.
