I took REG today and I’m pretty sure I failed. Almost certain in fact… I have AUD scheduled exactly 4 weeks from now. Should I move on and study for AUD now and then retake REG in January?

Or should I immediately go back to studying for REG for the retake while the material is still fresh in my mind and reschedule AUD for 2018?

It it bad to start studying for a new section?

I rook REG last week and I'm not confident I did well enough to pass. I'm still moving on to take BEC in 4 weeks. Figure that way I have a chance to maybe pass one. But until I know for sure I didn't pass I don't want to spend time studying for it again. I'll go back to it if I need to.

if you're 100% sure you failed, then keep at reg. one of my biggest mistakes was not sticking to a test until passing. you forget a lot of the info and have to go back and restudy again which wastes time. especially if you're not sure you'd pass audit in 4 weeks.

I'd keep going ahead with AUD, for one you don't know how you did for sure. And two 4 weeks isn't very long to step away from reg. I also think you should study for retakes like it's the first time. This doesn't mean you need the same amount of time but that you need to cover all material again, the advantage of it being fresh is that you won't need as much time the second time through to understand and internalize concepts.
Anna is on to something about sticking to one test till you pass, but with the delayed score releases this year the strategies of trying to do two tests per window till you pass them makes more sense, that way you don't lose previous months of your 18 month widow because you took an unnecessary break.

You'll never succeed if you never try.

Since you can not retake Reg in this window I would go ahead and take AUD next month and in Q1 of 2018 get back to REG.

You won't know whether you passed of failed until 12/19- imagine studying for an exam you actually passed!?!

I was in this same situation – took Reg July 8th and Aud 9/8. I wasn't convinced I passed REG but I took AUD anyway. Anticipated that even if I passed one of the two I was still half way done. To my surprise I passed both!

Good Luck!

BEC - Passed

REG - Passed

AUD - Passed

FAR - Passed
