    Took AUD today and felt very confident before exam as last time got 70 and knew about some silly mistakes.
    First testlet was medium – took 45 minutes ,yes gradually took more time.I wanted to finish in 35 minutes but couldn’t do.all questions correct.
    2nd testlet : too much ,long and wordier , some calculations .OMG it’s AUD or FAR ? checked it ,yes it is AUD. took long time as questions were A4 size. ,finished 100% correct.
    Third testlet :hardest : took long time to read .I had doubt on 2 questions ,came home and one was right .can say 99%
    Time remaining :1H38minutes.
    OMG : 1.Brutal ,so long and subjective ,could pick 2-3 right.
    2. Research :Found it fast but took some time because got confused with para number.Finally that was 100% right.
    3.One simulation got it right but after 2-3 selection came to know sequence were wrong (some one in forum found out the way to delete the selection ) hence wanted to delete the selection but couldn’t figure out how to remove the selection.Finally selected all the correct options but sequence was wrong.Knew it that it should be in sequence but couldn’t .
    4 and 5 :80% correct
    6-7:Was computation and I feel I have good grasp over topic but couldn’t figure out the missing puzzle .Just filled zeros .Finally these 2 questions punched me on my nose and referee counted 10-to-0 and declared time up.
    I believe I prepared myself most for AUD but performed worst ever.Believe me I have given too much time for SIM (80%) and was expecting to solve 5 SIMs 100%.
    Don’t know what else I can do to pass AUD.

    All I can say is I'm going to be really pissed if after I take AUD I feel like I should have reviewed my FAR material instead. Why do I keep hearing this? Sounds kinda ridiculous that so many detailed FAR topics would be tested on an AUD exam

    AUD - 96
    BEC - 86
    FAR - 76
    REG - 92

    First time I took AUD I got a 70, I retook it on 1/22 this qtr and passed with a 75, hold out some hope. My SIM experience sounds similar to yours. Don't think about it until the results come I freaked out and felt the same way after the exam. I was so happy when I found out I passed AUD and don't have to take it again.

    BEC – 77
    AUD – 75
    REG – 3/9

    “OMG it's AUD or FAR ? checked it ,yes it is AUD.”

    ROFL!

    Well if it went bad it usually means you did well. Nothing you can really do but wait and see what happens. On my FAR pass i thought it was insanely hard and passed. When i took BEC it seemed so easy on ever testlet and passed. You never know with these exams. Just gotta wait it out and see what happens. Best of luck to you!

    FAR: 74 1/15/16, 72 7/2/16 -_-
    BEC: TBD
    REG: TBD
    AUD: TBD

    I still cant recall the drs questions I had for AUD and FAR belongs to which, since they were so correlated. I so agree with u saying that u had to check if it was AUD lol.

    But sounds like you have done enough to pass the exam for sure.

    AUD - 75
    BEC - 76
    FAR - 78
    REG - 79
    ALL PASS PLEASE!
