I lean towards option C as well, but I wonder if revising the plan ourselves, like in option A, could be more efficient in some cases.

I’m torn between C and D. I feel like benchmarking could be useful, but it might delay the process too much. I wish I could recall more examples from our study sessions.

I remember a practice question where we had to notify the auditee about issues. So, option B seems familiar, but I feel like we should be more involved in the revision process.

I think option C makes the most sense since discussing deficiencies could lead to a better plan. But I'm not entirely sure if that's the only step we should take.
