Planning to sit for AUD the first week of July, maybe even July 1. I am in auditing right now and will get an A, I am fairly confident I can pass this test the first time if I allocate my study time wisely and have a plan.

I have been studying MCQ everyday, multiple websites, cpareviewforfree, I cut out the AICPA released questions from 2006-13 and pasted them on notecards and have been reading them everywhere!! (thanks cpamommy for that info). I plan on using ninja notes and wiley test bank also.

When should I start hitting it really hard? 6 weeks out? Now?

I’m scared about the SIMs.. I have no clue what they are or what to expect..

After I take AUD I plan on sitting for BEC before the end of August so I will roughly have all of July and most of August to study. I am thinking about buying Yaeger review for that, I heard Cindy is good. I really need to pass these 2 exams this summer.

Thanks in advanced for the advice, I trust everyone on here for the best help, you are going through it or have recently. Thats important to me.

For the SIMS–Do the ones in your test bank and get familiar with the codification. It is extremely important that you leave enough time during your test for the SIMS and that you utilize the Authoritative Literature on EVERY single question. You may be able to find some of the answers word for word if you search the AL. I think hard studying for 3 months is going to make you burn out. Is there any way you can take the test at the end of May instead of waiting until July or are you waiting for your class to end so you can be eligible to sit? You should be fine doing BEC in 6 weeks.

I'm waiting for my class to end may 9 to become eligible. I haven't started studying hard yet, I am just reviewing the flashcards when I have free time in between classes. I am thinking when may rolls around I will start hitting it hard. Maybe 8 weeks out.
