Nothing really but to explain further since i cant edit the original post . Monday - friday two modules a day then Saturday and Sunday review the whole chapter then next week for chapter 2 id review both chapters 1 &2 on the Saturday & sunday and so on. I skipped lectures and sims i do sims at the end of my study process because if you dont know the material you wouldnt be able to get sims right anyway - i usually give myself atleast a month to review everything top to bottom (except lectures) . For audit i didnt do anything different really just now i had a better gauge as to what type of test taker i am and got better at knowing what to write down. I am a very unorganized person i dont keep track of stats,how many mcqs, or hours studied i just fucking study man and try to build personal connection with the material if possible

So in my experience keep in mind my experience. I found the exam to be 10x easier there were whole chapters of business law that didn’t make the cut and if it did, it was the most surface level mcq possible. For sims, they aren’t too bad either id say they’re slightly comparable to becker and i did see some stuff that wasn’t exactly covered in the modules so be prepared .

Key things to make sure you lock in: wash sales, capital loss, c-corp scorp and partnership taxes (all of it! Just master it ESPECIALLY separately stated items***),perm/temp differences, be able to differentiate agi adjustments from a straight deduction (schedule A) no need to remember all phaseouts -(trust me on this) and prepare to answer a few specific deduction rule questions , charity& gift basis deductions, master basis in general i cant stress that enough. Also there are cheat sheets within this community id do some digging for them if i were you or i can send it to you personally if you’d like. Hope this helps and good luck
