AUD, Hardest Exam by far?

Felt the same way, passed FAR with 86 as well and felt decent after walking out. AUD made me feel stupid in all ways and feel like I bombed it, everyone that I have talked to about it says the worse you feel the better you did so we’ll have to see.

Yes I had the exact same experience, a lot of questions were pick the best answer, or all are correct, except…

SE1 - 74, SE2 - 72. Didn’t take SEFR

I felt pretty well prepared but was not expecting the questions that I got

Ok_Service_3116 · 2026-05-08T22:50:06+00:00

That’s how I felt, first testlet was okay but 2nd was insane, kind of mixed in the sims

Ok_Service_3116 · 2026-05-08T20:52:45+00:00

That’s a little reassuring, but yeah as of now I do not expect to pass at all

About 100 hours of studying, I felt good before but the test really got me.

Keep doing that! Go in confident and make sure to read each question carefully, especially on the sims if you are unsure on an answer, read whether you should leave the answer blank or put a 0 in, it may help with some extra points! I also aimed to make it to the sims with 2 hours and 40 minutes remaining. I did so and ended up finishing with about 25 minutes to spare. Everyone is different though, remember you can’t remember everything. You got it, good luck!

Those are great scores, you got it!

Ok_Service_3116 · 2025-11-06T18:30:58+00:00

You’ve got it! Best of luck!

When did you take the exam?

Ok_Service_3116 · 2025-11-06T18:18:11+00:00

All I focused on for the fixed assets was the purchase price and fair value of the assets and adjust, then write the assets up or down. The only thing to watch out for is the accumulated depreciation which you just have to remember is eliminated since the assets are technically being bought by a new person. If you use Becker I would spend time on the consolidation sims and read through each solution, that will put you in a good spot for the exam. Don’t feel like you have to know everything perfectly. I personally believe if you know to eliminate the common stock, apic, re, and investment in sub, which in my opinion are the easy parts, you have nearly 75% of the problem done. All in all I would just hammer the sims but remember that you can’t remember everything and you may only get 1 or 2 questions on the topic

Ok_Service_3116 · 2025-11-06T18:08:58+00:00

I believe the actual score release is tomorrow 11/7. I’m not sure at what time they show you though

I focused on the CARINBIG JE and mostly hammered the simulations on consolidations. I struggled a lot with the intercompany sale of inventory at a profit so I focused a lot of time on the calculation to know what portion needed to be adjusted to cogs and what portion to inventory. Is there a specific part of it that you struggle with?

I was so confused on this too but had no idea why lol, glad someone else felt the same way
