    Hey guys so I have my Audit exam this coming weekend. I am just wrapping up A6. Starting Final Review tomorrow. I just started a new job and have no PTO days to use yet. Should I just continue on and give it my best shot or take it in July. One thing Im afraid of is thats too long and overstudying would probably will just be as bad and second it eats into my FAR study time. I really need to finish these 2 exam by october.

    I appreciate any feedbacks. My NTS expires right on July 2 if I were to postpone. Im planning to put in 6 hours (6-12) everyday from Mon-Friday. Exam is on saturday at 10AM.

    It would be so nice to have June back for the 1st ten days. 🙁

    BEC- PASS (Expiring in DEC 2017)

    REG- PASS (Expiring Feb 2018)

    AUD- PASS (Expiring Oct 2018)

    FAR- 65, 60, 59, 77!!! -GOD BLESS

    If I can do it, anyone can do it!

    I would say continue and give it your best shot. How is the material feeling at this point? I think being at final review with 5 more days and an additional 30 hours planned to study should be enough to get comfortable with the exam by Saturday (I would focus mostly on your weak areas and do tons of MCQs/SIMs at this point). Plus, if you extend it sounds like it might make both AUD and FAR more stressful to study for, since you mentioned it would eat into FAR. I can imagine it would stress me out studying for AUD, while in my mind I “should” be studying for FAR. I think taking the test now and then taking a week or so study break before hitting FAR sounds like the better plan. I'm taking my next test two days after you and then also FAR in the July, and I know I'll definitely need a week off between!

    Thanks Natty. I feel comfy on some topics and obviously not so comfy on others. I was able to recall a lot of the materials being it my 4th time. I appreciate your input. Hitting Ninja MCQs/ SIMS hard the next few days. I rather give it my best as u mention and not worry in the back of my head while studying FAR even if I need a retake. Just hoping I pass at least one of these and focus on the last in OCT so I can avoid and dropping scores. Thanks!

    Good luck to you too. Nice score with REG. Im sure u will do well with BEC.

    Thank you, I definitely think working in tax helped me on that one though! Even then, I didn't feel that comfortable with the material until about 3 days before my test when most things started clicking, so I assume that's normal. Currently not feeling comfortable with BEC at all either haha, but I'll keep doing what I did last time and do my best. Good luck to you too, we got this!
