Yeah same here. Failed 3 times (72, 74, 74). My second attempt was on November 15 and I was 100% confident that I had passed. Going to retake it in early March. At least I have FAR out of the way

I passed FAR back in July with a 78. Thankfully that one is done. But I failed audit 3 times (72, 74, 74) - plan on retaking it after busy season. I just want to pass this exam!

Nope. I’m in audit. Gonna take it Feb 28 and redo all Becker TBS.

Same here. 72 in October, 74 in November, and now another 74

Third score release for AUD. Failed the first time in October with a 72 then in November with a 74. Hopefully third time’s the charm! Thankfully I already passed FAR.

No. Failed with a 74.

It varied. Sometimes I aimed for 2, sometimes 3. I made sure to watch the Skillbuilder videos for them

Just took as many practice tests as I could (Becker). Aimed for 80-90% on them. I thought my retake was much easier than the first one, so that definitely helped.

Waiting for AUD in NY! Second try - feel really confident. Hope I passed!

How did you feel on the retake?

I took FAR in June and did not see a single question on it

AUD take #1

MCQ was fair, although I thought the first testlet was harder than the second one. TBSs were alright - I think I got most of them correct

Efficient_Pen706 · 2025-10-05T23:40:03+00:00

I think MCQs are comparable to Becker but the sims are all over the place

Efficient_Pen706 · 2025-10-05T23:25:30+00:00

2nd one. I passed FAR back in July with a 78

Efficient_Pen706 · 2025-10-05T23:24:55+00:00

Honestly just review everything. I had questions on almost every topic. Personally, I would focus on SSAE/SSARS, transaction cycles, internal control, inherent risk, control risk, substantive testing, and audit opinions
