I was weaker in section "INFORMATION" as it said on the score results. Can anyone guide me which chapter that would be from Becker.

Thanks,

I don't have the book in front of me, but isn't information Audit Evidence? Which is 30%+/- on the exam.

In the Becker book, A3 and A4 are by far the most heavily tested (so the instructor says).  However, I think learning A1 and A2 are very important in helping you to obtain an understanding of Audit, but I don't think they are that heavily tested.

Hi guys,

I'm just starting to study Audit.  I've already taken FAR but failed it by a point.  I was weak in the SIMS.  Does anyone have any advice for studying the audit SIMS?  Thanks so much for your help!!!

I don't know what study materials you are using, but Wiley has some great hard SIMS which really make you think. I think most people will agree that it's hard to prepare for the SIMS in Audit. Generally speaking, know your journal entries, reports and audit evidence. Also be familiar with the different types of SIMS that Audit will throw at you. Wiley really helped me with this personally.
