2026 AUD format
AUD is a Core section with 4 hours of testing time. Its first two testlets contain 39 and 39 MCQs. Its final three testlets contain 2, 3, 2 TBSs.
MCQs carry 50% of the score and TBSs carry 50%. These are official score weights, not a suggested study-time formula.

Commit to one answer before reading the explanation. After answering, review every distractor and follow the cited primary source if you need to verify the rule.
AUD - Audit Evidence
Which statement correctly distinguishes the sufficiency and appropriateness of audit evidence?
How to review this AUD sample
Choose an answer before opening the explanation. Then review the correct-answer reasoning and every distractor, including when your first choice was correct.
A useful AUD practice set asks you to identify a control problem, choose the procedure that responds to the assessed risk, and connect the evidence to the reporting conclusion.
If you recognize audit terms but miss scenario questions, stop memorizing labels in isolation. Explain why each procedure addresses the stated risk, then practice a TBS that requires you to organize evidence.
What one AUD question can and cannot show
This sample can reveal whether you can apply one reviewed rule and explain the alternatives. It cannot estimate a CPA Exam score, predict a pass, or represent the full Blueprint.
Use the official Blueprint to verify scope, the section guide to plan coverage, and a larger set of unfamiliar questions when you need broader evidence.
Choose the next AUD practice step
If the rule was unfamiliar, return to the AUD guide before doing more questions. If the rule was familiar but the scenario caused the miss, continue with changed-fact practice and explain why each wrong option fails.
