There's another post floating around about this. Generally, you can expect to do 10-15 points better on the actual exam than your becker practice. For example, my first and second practice exam scores for REG were 75% and 77%, respectively, and you can see my actual score below.

REG 2/26/14 - 90
BEC 4/08/14 - 92
FAR 5/31/14 - 90
AUD 7/09/14 -

I bet you're going to score 90 or higher.

Good luck!

I think your scores look pretty good for Becker. The review material is intended to be more difficult than the exam. Keep working MCQs through tomorrow and I think you're good to go! Good luck on the 10th!

I am not sure if this is a good score….i know becker is supposed to be harder and i got a 65% on my BEC practice and scored an 86 on the actual. I emailed my boss about his thoughts (he is a cpa) and he only responded with “Cram”…not exactly encouraging

He's right to tell you to cram because every moment is valuable and you can sharpen up on your weaker areas in the couple days you have left until the exam. So use all the time you can use because if your score is on the borderline, a few questions might make the difference.

Having said that, if you are scoring in the 70s on your Becker practice tests, that should absolutely give you confidence. As people have already said, it is pretty common to score 10-15 points higher on the actual exam…that has been my experience as well (aside from maybe once out of my 6 or 7 attempts). The two times I passed my exams, I got high 60s/low 70s on the Becker practice tests and ended up with an 82 (BEC) and a 77 (FAR) on the real thing, so I think you are probably in pretty good shape.

BEC - 69, 70, 82 - DONE
FAR - 59, 77 - DONE
REG - 53, 70, 85 - DONE
AUD - 66, 68, 70, 85 - DONE
