Hi ebeid_mahmoud,

Did you use Becker for your studying? If yes, how do you think about Ancillary materials in Audit? Did they test a lot on those like REG or just some questions like in FAR?

I saw just 3-4 questions in Ancillary part in FAR exam but a lot in REG exam. Can you please give me some hints based on your experience?

Thanks a lot,

I used Becker and it was more than enough, Ancillary materials were not tested at all in Audit, but as you know this is not the rule, you may get some MCQs on them, but if your time is limited, It will be better to ignore them inorder to not get confused now

Thank you very much, ebeid_mahmoud.

By the way, do you use any recent Aud Notes like 2011? I tried to search one but couldn't find any except 2009 Audit Notes from FutureCPA. I found that notes were very helpful after taking two other parts.

Took Audit today -- studied with Becker.

Found the MC to be pretty straight forward - very reflective of what was in Becker MC. The same 3 questions or so were asked multiple times on the test....weird. Of course, there were a couple I had to flat out guess but most of the ones I had to guess on I could at least get down to 50/50.

SIMs were more difficult. Even the research was challenging, but I think I finally got it. Another tab I nailed because I was able to use the research and nail it. A couple tabs seemed to be more FAR related than anything. Even the audit related ones were pretty challenging.

I actually took AUD a couple years ago and passed with a 75. I remember thinking the test was pretty easy and was surprised I had passed by the skin of my teeth. Can't really tell with these tests.
