    I took AUD in July and got a 72, since then I passed BEC and just took FAR. I started studying for my retake today and my retake is Dec 2nd. Should I focus on the areas that I did poor in on my 1st try and just skim the areas that I am still very comfortable in? I actually switched from Ninja to I-75 for this one.

    AUD - 81
    BEC - 82
    FAR - 77
    REG - 87
    Gotta get that bonus!

    What were your trouble areas? I take AUD on 11/23. Tomorrow I will wrap up chapter 5/6 and am on pace for 2 week review period. I am also having trouble deciding which areas I need to focus on in review.

    FAR - 80 (4/1/2019)

    BEC - 82 (9/7/2019)

    AUD - 81 (11/23/2019)

    REG - 94 (3/9/2020)

    I retake Audit for the 3rd time on 11/25. I got a 74 and then a 70. I am pretty much restudying every thing because I now realize I didn't fully understand the section as a whole. The first time, I used Ninja and Gleim and got a 74. The second time I think I just used Gleim and got a 70. Now I'm subscribed to Professor Farhat's lectures for a fee and using Ninja MCQs. I cannot believe how much better I am understanding using Farhat's lectures. I have been out of school for almost 15 years so I need the bottom line to help me understand everything as a whole.

    If I were you, make sure you know all the topics, whether you feel you are comfortable or not.

    REG - 78
    FAR - 79
    AUD - 76
    BEC - 75

    I have been on this journey off and on for over 10 years. I think it's about time that I wrap this up.

    AUD - 10/21/16 (75----07/2010 expired)
    FAR - 10/28/16
    BEC - 11/2016
    REG - 01/2017

    I'm doing AUD in a month, too, since I took FAR 2 days ago. I've been taking the exam since 2014, although I've taken a few breaks like when I fell out of a window to do some finance-related exams; and I keep doing tax ce for the IRS AFSP. If I don't get AUD or FAR (results Nov 22nd), I may take Series 6 & 63 or EA? My hopes are to go North of 75 as always and keep going with the CPA. I've been close to passing AUD before (73). Got to keep moving forward. Let's do this.

    AUD - 75
    BEC - 78
    FAR - 76
    REG - 80

    I love A1. Tim's videos inspired me to research ‘edgar' including the Unqualified Opinions for the companies I work for today. I also love SU1. Gleim's books have an acquired taste. I wish I could find the quote in my book, ‘..the online is better..?'

    1 month is more than enough time. I would go back into Ninja long enough to run the reports that will show you your weak areas, then hammer those hard. Also, keep up taking quizzes from the full body of knowledge so you don't forget the stuff you currently know well.

    AUD - 95
    BEC - 87
    FAR - 84
    REG - 90
