I heard audit is closer to FAR. I'd taking audit next and studying right now and i can kinda see that some of the stuff hints the material from FAR on the high level though.. like you get to apply general understanding that u get from FAR.

FAR - 80

AUD - 78

REG - 76

BEC - 56 (April 2019); CREDIT (September 2019)

 

ALL PAU PEEPS!!!!

I think it is kind of same for both too. I am studying for REG now and consistently run into things from FAR. Thinking to myself “oh i know this” 🙂

AUD - 81
BEC - 79
FAR - 76
REG - 78

Always chose the road less traveled.

I'd recommend FAR then AUD. Worked well for me.
The only wrench in the mix is the upcoming changes to REG. But if you don't work in tax, or know current tax law, then either way you're learning it all from scratch anyway.

Memento Mori - Kingston NY CPA & EA (SUNY Albany 2002)

FAR-93 11/9/17 (10wks, 250 hrs, Roger 1800+ MCQs, Gleim TB 600+MCQs, SIMs)
AUD-88 12/7/17 (3 wks, 85 hrs, Roger 1000 MCQs no SIMs hail mary)
REG-96 1/18/18 (6 wks, 110 hrs, 1400 MCQs, no SIMs)
BEC-91 2/16/18 (4wks, 90 hrs, 1240 MCQs)

@Recked: Can you tell me the exact name of the FAR book you bought for Roger? and where can I purchase it from? Thanks.

If I did it over I'd do FAR->REG->BEC->AUD.

I personally feel like FAR and REG are the most intense sections that require the most committed studying. I had almost no knowledge of auditing and I still found that section super easy. I'm feeling the hurt of saving a tough section like REG for last.

This is disregarding the impact of the tax law changes.

FAR - 97 (10/12/17)
BEC - 95 (01/15/18)
AUD - 88 (04/06/18)
REG - 89 (11/16/18)
