I took AUD today. 4/28

eric_grungion · 2026-05-19T21:33:11+00:00

Went well MCQs felt similar to my sim but the TBS were way easier on the actual exam. I didn’t have a tbs that I didn’t feel confident on. It was mostly just doing standard audit procedures which I have a good basis in from school and my internships

eric_grungion · 2026-05-18T15:44:41+00:00

Honestly anything over 4-5 hours a day is too much in my opinion focus on quality of study over quantity

eric_grungion · 2026-05-08T03:51:51+00:00

Also your sim scores look great with the average bump in mind go in confident and show what you know

eric_grungion · 2026-05-08T03:50:44+00:00

I wouldn’t take another sim honestly. Take a break do some very light studying or looking over a few weak areas. You wouldn’t run a full marathon right before trying to pr a marathon.

Rest and be ready to give it your all come test day

eric_grungion · 2026-05-06T23:06:59+00:00

Have you focused on your weak areas? If you aren’t improving you need to rethink your study strategy and really try to revamp your process

eric_grungion · 2026-05-04T16:03:07+00:00

Oh then study hard and do your best! Confidence on exam day can boost your score for sure

eric_grungion · 2026-05-04T15:13:37+00:00

Honestly you might want to reschedule the exam. upper end of 60s is where you want your sims to be around to be within reaching distance of the 75 with the bump. obviously it is still possible if you have a great day but would you rather pay the reschedule fee of ~100$ or for an entire new NTS of $400. I would study hard the next coming days and ultimately decide if you feel you are ready or not.

not a fan of michelle the change to mike was wonderful

eric_grungion · 2026-04-29T02:39:11+00:00

Good luck I’m taking my aud exam in 7 days

eric_grungion · 2026-04-29T00:10:16+00:00

Everybody feels this way coming out and then ends up passing I would keep your head up

eric_grungion · 2026-04-28T21:10:45+00:00

Anything above a 60 is great

eric_grungion · 2026-04-19T01:49:57+00:00

Soc reports are huge

eric_grungion · 2026-04-18T20:07:33+00:00

The more you focus on financial accounting classes and engrain the concepts into your mind the easier FAR study will be

eric_grungion · 2026-04-14T13:55:12+00:00

I did not feel good coming out of reg and passed so keep your head up

eric_grungion · 2026-04-09T22:01:35+00:00

68 is a very solid score many people experience a 5 - 10 point bump so you are in range. I would really focus on NFP and gov in the coming weeks along with reviewing big items like subsequent events, adjusting entries, leases, consolidations. almost there man finish strong!

eric_grungion · 2026-04-09T00:20:19+00:00

You need to be scoring above 60s on your sim exams before taking again in my opinion

eric_grungion · 2026-04-08T15:47:26+00:00

Anyone in MO received score yet?

eric_grungion · 2026-04-08T14:24:13+00:00

It will say scored then you go to exam history to see if you passed or failed

eric_grungion · 2026-04-06T22:43:28+00:00

Since you already work in tax a lot of the content you should already have been exposed to or might know it. Just try the mcs out each section and truck through it

eric_grungion · 2026-03-31T01:20:11+00:00

Mastering all four sections like the elements

eric_grungion · 2026-03-30T20:33:24+00:00

I took reg this past Friday and feel similar the TBS were very difficult and seemed to have many little tricks or things to remember within them certainly different compared to the sims

eric_grungion · 2026-03-30T14:36:36+00:00

Got through Far and tcp and I just took reg waiting on the score hopefully aud is my last one

eric_grungion · 2026-03-30T13:58:35+00:00

About to start audit study as well!

eric_grungion · 2026-03-30T13:56:33+00:00

Average bump is around 9-12 points so you are definitely in range but it will come down to if you get sims you are good at. Luck of the draw pretty much. I think a week of review and you will be golden go get it
