Our students love us
I was super lost before this crash course, but Brandon explained everything in a way that actually made sense. The examples were straight to the point, and I finally understood Audit. Honestly, saved my midterm. Highly recommend.

Mike helped me achieve amazing grades in all my accounting classes. His teaching style helps students actually understand the material being taught. He will not stop until you fully understand the concept. He is very approachable when you have questions. All his material gets you super prepared for your midterms and finals.

If it wasn't for Mike I would've never been able to get through my business and math classes. I ended every class he taught me with an A and he made the learning process so interesting and enjoyable. I definitely recommend him!

Honestly didn’t even open the textbook, I just followed Brandon’s crash course and felt way more confident going into the exam. He breaks things down really well and makes the boring stuff less painful. Wish I found it earlier.

How can Grade Grinders help me succeed in ACCO 465?
We offer weekly tutorials, crash courses, Quiz 1 and Quiz 2 prep, final exam prep, and full-semester bundles mapped to the ACCO 465 course outline. If you’re in weeklies or a crash course, you’ll also get access to our private Discord server to ask the instructor questions anytime.
What are the prerequisites for ACCO 465?
You’re expected to have completed ACCO 320 and ACCO 360 (or equivalents) per the program sequence in the course outline/flowchart.

Start with weekly tutorials early in the semester to keep pace with the course outline. If you’re short on time, use our crash courses to catch up quickly and focus on the most heavily tested areas. In the last 2–3 weeks before Quiz 1, Quiz 2, or the Final, use our mocks to pinpoint weak spots (e.g., control design vs. operating effectiveness, sampling justifications) and fix them before test day.
How is ACCO 465 graded and what assessments should I expect?
Grading is typically based on Quiz 1, Quiz 2, and the Final Exam, with possible additional quizzes or case assignments depending on the instructor. Expect both theory (standards, concepts) and application (cases, sampling, evidence evaluation).
What kind of exam practice do you provide for ACCO 465?
You’ll get mock versions of Quiz 1, Quiz 2, and the Final Exam, plus case-based problems and worked examples for planning, risk assessment, controls testing, fraud scenarios, sampling, and reporting, so you can practice both conceptual reasoning and audit judgement.
Which auditing standards and frameworks are emphasized?
You’ll see CAS (Canadian Auditing Standards) for planning, evidence, fraud, and reporting, plus COSO for internal control frameworks and audit risk models in case work.
What support do I get if I’m stuck on ACCO 465 concepts?
If you’re enrolled in weekly tutorials or any crash course, you’ll get access to our private Discord server, where you can ask the instructor questions anytime and get quick clarifications on tricky audit problems.
