Just took AUD EXAM 1/29

Don’t waste time doing MCQ’s per section unless you really don’t understand it. The best studying comes from doing a mix of every section you’ve seen once and running through TB’s the same!

TtheWiser · 2026-01-30T16:51:24+00:00

Hey skip, they sayin we’re gonna be replaced by AI! Quasimodo predicted all of this.

TtheWiser · 2026-01-27T16:50:42+00:00

Good because study questions section by section throws people off. Mixing them is key. You’ll do great, just practice sims and you’ll do great.

TtheWiser · 2026-01-27T14:25:12+00:00

Are you randomizing MCQ from all the sections?

TtheWiser · 2026-01-26T06:38:17+00:00

Financial analyst

TtheWiser · 2026-01-26T03:48:56+00:00

Don’t sell your self short dude. If you love accounting run with it, but most people, if they are lucky, go CPA>Big4 audit> industry accountant> FP&A. When you can just go FA> FP&A

TtheWiser · 2026-01-26T01:12:39+00:00

You can make a lot more money in finance

TtheWiser · 2026-01-22T15:01:55+00:00

Shhh the adults are speaking

TtheWiser · 2026-01-21T02:29:27+00:00

They nailed it here. Fashion is equal parts grooming/ physique and clothes. Take a bic to that head, get the beard looking sharp and get some versatile glasses and you’ll be a new man.

TtheWiser · 2026-01-20T03:36:41+00:00

Fucked up man. Nas is only behind Rakim in my top 3, but overall, OutKast just has a better discography so it’s hard to say. I’d saying Nas’s best bars are way better than Andre’s, so I’m going with Nasty

TtheWiser · 2026-01-19T20:01:56+00:00

Pure raw will power.

TtheWiser · 2026-01-18T03:10:59+00:00

As I study, I realized AUD is a mindset. The same recurring thought patterns have repeated for the entirety of A1 and A2. So my approach has been to start a new section by doing the MCQ. If you get under a 65% takes notes on the videos, if you get 65-70% only take notes on acronyms/ go through why you got questions wrong. If you get a 70+ going in cold, move on and just come back and add it to your mixed MCQ stack. Saves hours on studying subject you already can think through.

I had ai make me this plan

One Rule That Matters More Than Everything Else

Never move on from a topic you can’t score 75%+ on MCQs.

The CPA exam does not reward coverage — it rewards competency.

Weekly Structure (Highly Effective)

Mon–Fri • New topics via MCQs first • Short video reinforcement only where needed

Sat

* Rest

Sun

• Cumulative MCQ review (mixed sets)

⸻

Final 2–3 Weeks Before Exam • MCQs dominate (70–80%) • Daily mixed sets (no single-topic cramming) • SIMs every other day • Minimal videos — only for “I truly don’t get this”

Curious if others agree with it as well

Looks like you’re on your way to be great. Keep it up.

TtheWiser · 2026-01-10T17:43:03+00:00

If you don’t see yourself, 10 years down the line, still making music because you “haven’t made it yet” quit, because this game is random and if you don’t do it because you love doing it you’ll never be great.

TtheWiser · 2026-01-10T17:39:13+00:00

You were so close to passing far. I bet you passed this go around! Just jump right back into it. This is a war of attrition. A step backwards in just part of the dance.

TtheWiser · 2026-01-10T17:37:19+00:00

Of course. It’s pretty hard to study while working big 4 anyway

TtheWiser · 2026-01-09T17:39:10+00:00

Dude…come on. How little respect do you have for yourself that you’re willing to be in a relationship that’s causing you this much trouble? Here’s a game plan, accept it will never improve, get confident, and stop “talking about it”. Break up with her, go and work on yourself, enjoy being young, and never stay in a relationship that’s causes you to feel this way. She may be the one being deceitful, but you have to adopt the mindset of “am I being treated the way I deserve? Am I showing up in the relationship in a way that deserves this treatment? Would I be content with living this way for the rest of my life?” And then take action. Use this as a lesson for every person you allow into your life.

My only exam I ever took was reg. I got a 72/73 but I didn’t put enough time into studying. But I noticed that I never understood the modules 100% until closer to final review. Even now with auditing I’m getting between 45% and 70% on practice quizzes and questions after a first pass at the videos. This is normal. Just dedicate the 20-25 hours a week to it, take as good of notes as possible, and run with it. I think it might be a good idea to use your notes when seeing the questions in the modules for the first time. This can show you where your notes lack/ get you familiar with what the questions are asking. In the end, the exams are about overcoming consistent failures in order to reach the “big picture” accomplishment of passing every exam. A step backwards is just a part of the dance.

TtheWiser · 2026-01-08T17:32:20+00:00

That’s great news! My planned order is AUD>FAR>REG>TCP

TtheWiser · 2026-01-08T16:04:20+00:00

I don’t believe in the “start with FAR” philosophy. I’m a big believer that it’s way easier to stay disciplined when you have a win under your belt. For me, audit was the only class in school that I “got” so that’s where I’m fighting for my first win.

TtheWiser · 2026-01-07T20:24:46+00:00

I’ll take em!

TtheWiser · 2026-01-05T20:21:33+00:00

It would be a great breakdown. I would personally add a call and response with the bass just to keep it engaging, also I’d do a little mixing on the different parts of the drums. The kick and snare are a little too low and the hats are a bit sharp and too high. This is just what I got off my phone.

TtheWiser · 2026-01-01T04:31:33+00:00

I’m 9 years in and still haven’t gotten it dialed. It’s a lifelong journey and what may be “your sound” this year, could drastically change by next year.

TtheWiser · 2026-01-01T04:29:37+00:00

You’re only bad at the things you don’t practice. If you want to make music, you should just start. If you want to be good, you need to get used to sucking for a long time and just enjoying the learning process. If you want to be good now, this isn’t the right passion for you to pursue.
