    I have passed FAR/BEC and am waiting on scores for REG/AUD. Unfortunately my bec exam will expire this week, so I am in a position of limbo where i may be done or have 3 exams to pass. I will find out my reg score next week and audit later in February, so i am unsure if i should start studying bec or wait until i am 100% sure ive failed an exam.

    Should i purchase an nts for bec and schedule an appointment at the end of february to insure a spot for me to take bec?

    One positive for me is that FAR expires in 05/16 and i passed bec on my first attempt with an 82. So i have a general idea how to pass unless there are drastic changes on bec 2015 vs. Bec 2013.

    Any insight is greatly appreciated. Apologies for any typos typos, i am using my phone.

    BEC: 86
    FAR: 77
    REG: 82
    AUD: 84
    Ethics: 96

    I would wait it out. Next week isn't that far away, and if you passed that exam, you may have just wasted money on an NTS that you don't need. If you're really worried about it, keep an eye on your Prometric sites. For what it's worth though, I have never had a problem getting in, even when I've changed test dates around at the last minute. I'm in a smaller market, but there are only two in my state, and a lot of folks from other states come in as well so the demand is definitely there.

    I'm pretty sure you can't get a new nts unless you know you have failed (or your passing score expired)

    You can't get an NTS until you officially fail. I know where you're at though. I took REG and FAR in October 2014. I had both BEC and AUD expiring in that testing window. I actually took FAR the day before my BEC test expired. So, if I passed both FAR and REG I was done, otherwise I had 3 tests to go. I actually passed both of them and was finished. It was probably the hardest wait for scores ever. It will be okay though and at least once the waiting is over you'll know what you have to do or not do. Hang in there.
