    I took AUD on Saturday, and I’m not sure if I passed or failed. Should I move forward with studying for another sections, or should I wait until the scores are released on May 5th? I want to keep my study schedule going, but I don’t want to overload my brain with other section, to only find out that I have to go back to study AUD.

    AUD - 83
    BEC - 79
    FAR - 77
    REG - 90
    CMA Part 1 - 360 (Barely made it but I made it)
    CMA Part 2 - 360 (Made it by the skin of my teeth)

    REG - 74, Retook 6/10/16, scored a 72 (Hate this exam)
    BEC - 69, 79, 8/1/15
    AUD - 83, 4/4/15
    FAR - 77, 2/27/16

    Yes, move forward. You can take audit again after your next section if you need to.

    You don't want to give up a month of study time. Move on to your next section now and circle back to AUD if the worst happens.

    I also believe that it would be beneficial to continue studying for your next section. Some people have mentioned that knowing FAR material seemed to be beneficial on AUD SIMS so it may be easier to go that route if you have not already decided what your next exam is going to be. Either way, best of luck!

    Thanks for the advice everyone! I'm scheduled to take BEC on May 30, 2015. That gives me about 7 or 8 weeks to get ready, and like you guys said, if I fail AUD at least, I would have gotten another section out the way. Hopefully, I pass both AUD and BEC in this testing window, and then I can move on to REG in July/August.

    AUD - 83
    BEC - 79
    FAR - 77
    REG - 90
    CMA Part 1 - 360 (Barely made it but I made it)
    CMA Part 2 - 360 (Made it by the skin of my teeth)

    REG - 74, Retook 6/10/16, scored a 72 (Hate this exam)
    BEC - 69, 79, 8/1/15
    AUD - 83, 4/4/15
    FAR - 77, 2/27/16

    May 5th is pretty far away, that's a LOT of study time you could be wasting if you don't flip over to REG or BEC now.

    The only timing where “keep studying” makes sense is when you take a test at the end of the window, and the grades are coming soon-ish.

    For instance, the May29th test I've got coming up for REG,I'll keep studying REG after the test because grades come out the week after that, and I can re-take in July with 4 more weeks of studying. That's a good time to do back-to-back testing on the same test.

    In this instance I'd say to start up on BEC or REG for May!

    Far: 49
    BEC: 79 (Expired)
    AUD: 51, 67, 64
    REG: 59, 64, 59, 69
