    same boat as you, taking it the 29th.

    today – im currently re reading the first 5 becker chapters today with a focus on the 5th chapter and hopefully completing all the ch 5 multiple choice questions along with a 30 question, 5 chapter progress test to gauge where I stand.

    tomorrow – im studying chapter 6 and doing all the ch 6 mc questions and then skimming through the chapters again and doing another progress test.

    sunday – im reviewing the first 3 chapters together along with practicing the written communication section

    monday – reviewing the last 3 chapers and also practicing the written section again

    tuesday – becker practice exam 1 along with shoring up any weak spots

    wednesday – becker practice exam 2 along with shoring up anymore weak spots

    thursday – 8am exam time

    dont know if that helped you but it helped organize myself haha. good luck to you!

    FAR: PASSED
    REG: PASSED
    AUD: PASSED
    BEC: PASSED

    Yes. I am taking the test on Thursday, May 29th. At this point, I don't feel fully prepared but I will try making the most of the next few days. Plan is to tackle MCQ's non-stop. I haven't touched WC so I will spend about half a day reviewing examples and maybe some practice for that area. I thought FAR was really hard but it looks like BEC is tricky as hell! If I don't feel prepared by Tuesday, I will postpone it for July sitting.

    I guess I'm the only genius who didn't look at a holiday calendar when scheduling and instead of taking advantage of the holiday weekend and taking BEC on Mon or Tues I am scheduled for tomorrow. If I pass I'll be thrilled that I got to enjoy my memorial day weekend….If I fail….especially by a few points I'm going to kick myself. Oh the JOYS of the CPA exam

    MBA,CMA,CPA, CFF?, ABV?

    My schedule is all over the place. I'm debating on whether I should re-read or skim through each chapter. My goal each day is to focus on one chapter, either reread or skim, do MCQs across each chapter, read formula notecards and read notes. The day before the test I'll spend the day reviewing WCs. I'm debating if I want to do one of the Becker finals.

    Becker, Wiley Test Bank, and Ninja 10 Point Combo!
