  • Sherri – How do I prepare myself for the Written Communications portion of BEC?
  • Spencer – I watched your video on the changes in AUD for 2013. Within the video you mention that changes go into effect on July 1, 2013. My questions is do changes for the other three sections go into effect on July 1, 2013, as well?
  • Nicole – How many times should I rewrite the NINJA Notes as part of my studies?

  • Teresa – I am taking the Audit Exam for the 2nd time and I think I need to brush up on my accounting skills. What do you suggest I do to have a quick review of general concepts? Should I grab an Intermediate or Financial Accounting book to skim over?
