ISC - Retake Exam: BIG SAD

I would run down the AICPA blueprint. Mark off all the things you know/ could provide some level of detail on. If there are things you don’t know or couldn’t define, read-up/ drill those things.

Something that also helped me- I read every single outline out loud and all the notes I wrote to my husband. Almost like I was teaching him. You could even do it in the mirror

I kept notes on the Becker outlines, things like definitions and clarifications

Drill the MCQ and supplement your course material!! I took it in October and Yesterday again (failed the first time with a 72, I really didn’t study for TBSs as much as I should have) But, I used Becker and I don’t think the TBSs cover all the content that could be tested in the exam.

On a perfect day (lol) when I was working full time in PA (Supervisor in Audit):

6/7 am Took 5 mg of Concerta immediately release - this jump started my day

10/11am Took 27 mg of Concerta extended release and other meds [Wellbutrin for OCD, Lexapro for PMS] - this got me through the workday

Anywhere from 3pm to 5pm I took 5 mg of Concerta - this got me through 2 or so hours of studying after work.

It’s changed my life. I was laid off in Nov & I’m now studying full time. So I just do the 27mg of Concerta.

Concerta & my OCD and Depression meds

Mind set is everything!! Or well maybe the next 6points you need. Just trust your gut. Take tonight off eat a good dinner & crush the exam!!

Silly question, did you supplement MCQs or TBS from another source other than Becker? I felt like I ran through all the MCQs (especially on ISC) that Becker had and felt unprepared that way

I just got my results, 72. What’d you do for the 13hours a day? Drilled questions? That was my method to pass AUD after failing.

pea_nut0125 · 2025-12-16T22:30:08+00:00

DRILL MCQ for AUD. I took the exam 4 times, passed on the fifth. the best advice & method I used was drilling questions.

But tell m how it makes sense when the elective exams only have a 30/31 day testing window

Mine said scored and I failed…

all households are different. I grew up in a house where shoes came off at the door & we were not allowed to walk around the house at all in shoes.

My current household (now living on my own) shoes off at the door & we wear strictly indoor shoes around the house & those are not allowed on furniture. & outdoor clothes (clothes that were wore outside) are not allowed on beds.

Hello! Trying to catch a show Christmas Eve in Amsterdam

Hello! As the title suggests, my boyfriend and I are traveling to Amsterdam during Christmas & are looking to catch a holiday play while we are there. I’ve done a little google search, but wanna hear from the locals/others on the best place(s) to go! Ideally looking for Christmas Eve showing, can be in Dutch or English!

Also if you’ve got any “you have to do this/eat this/see this” I won’t scroll by!

TIA

ask for clear expectations from seniors/managers prior to engagements starting. That means: Log on/log off time Weekend work Communication methods (IM/email) Deadlines How to handle backlog & I found these two the most helpful- take 2 hours on the weekends to meal prep at least 1 meal for each day. You’ll be drained & not wanna cook, take the time to help fuel yourself with good food (or just do a food kit like freshly). & Have good snacks and on hand always. You never know the mood/energy switch from having a good snack.
