Okay I failed Audit... what should i do retake AUD in like 3 weeks, mid-July and the do Reg end of August.

My NTS for REG expires at end of August, so I have to take it before that. would 3 weeks be enough to restudy audit, I missed it by 7 points last time.

I haven't taken audit but I would assume 3 weeks would be enough time to review the material and give it another go.

I think 3 weeks is way more than enough time, especially since you already studied once. There comes a point after a while of sudying the same thing over and over again where you jsst dont really learn anything but waste time. I am studying 3 weeks total for Audit. Taking it on July 2.

REG is a bear of an exam. No way would I try to squeeze a "quickie" AUD re-take in first. That maneuver could cost you BOTH exams this time.

My advice: Focus on REG now. Solely on REG. If you are COMPLETELY prepared to take REG by the end of July, do so, and then you will have 4 weeks to prep AUD with a new NTS.

But if you are NOT comfortably prepared for REG at the end of July, you will still have a few more weeks to prepare -- AND PASS --without being boxed in. AUD can wait.
