    Field report – BEC contains some of the most useless info of the four exams.

    So, I think I'm doing well with the becker material. almost finished with B2 and pulling 75+ on all the sections, however, variance analysis keeps tripping me up. I don't feel as though Becker explains it very well. Does anyone else have this issue or is it just me?

    How is everyone else doing with their studies?

    Hello all. I have been kicked by BEC and will be retaking sometime in late October (not sure when exactly).

    I am using becker and can answer to ya'll that B2 and end of B1 was definitely the hardest information for me. I had to review these a few times and obviously need to review them more. I also think B3 is very important. I am thinking about purchasing Ninja MCQ to supplement but haven't decided yet. I am going to see if my score breakdown will help me out to see where I need to improve or where my strengths are. This test is just tricky. Is anyone using Ninja MCQ here?

    AUD - 73,91
    FAR - 79 - Thank you God!
    BEC - 73,79!!!!
    REG - 92 whatttt??!

    I used Becker review + flashcards, Ninja Audio, Ninja MCQ supplement on BEC and REG.

    Done! Praise God!

    @Lauren, to answer your question from the score thread.. I am using Becker. I had used Gleim in the beginning and determined it was sufficient for my studying.. i just didnt like the way they outlined it and such. B1 and B2 went okay for me; however, variance analysis is a little whacky and I'm not sure I like how it's expalined. I will finish that section tonight and begin B3 soon as well. I'm really sorry you have to take it again, a part of me think it's my fault. lol
