This is my first exam so I’m not sure on how the Becker practice exams compare to the real thing. I just completed Becker practice exam 1 (for FAR), and I’m not sure how to feel or how I should use the results to gauge my studying…I only have 5 more days to study! I felt like the sims were REALLY easy, so I know I shouldn’t expect to see sims that easy on the real thing (I think?). There were no long complicated ones with dual tabs or anything.

Tips/comments/concerns/whatever! I’m really, really nervous.

How is everyone else doing??

Overall MCQ: 73%

Testlet #1 – M/C Questions – 80

Testlet #2 – M/C Questions – 67

Testlet #3 – M/C Questions – 73

Testlet #4 – Simulation 1–overall 91%

AUD: 98
REG: 91
BEC: 86
FAR: 83

DONE DONE DONE and DONE all on the first try! It IS possible, just keep on studying!

Your scores seem like you are ready. If you are hitting 70's on the practice test then i would say you are most likely going to get in the 80's on the real thing according to the stats on this forum. Search for Becker practice test vs real test, there's a thread where people lit their final practice score versus exam score. I would say you need to hammer out MCQ's until test day and take as many progress tests as possible to see where you weak areas are and focus on those.

BEC - 76 (1/24/15)
REG - 82 (4/13/15)
AUD - 89 (5/31/15)
FAR - 78 (8/16/15)

Starting right now I'll be strong
I'll play my fight song
And I don't really care if nobody else believes
'Cause I've still got a lot of fight left in me

I would also try to go through practice exam 2 as it is all new questions you have not seen before. If not to gauge time, to use as another 90 MCQs and some practice sims. If you can't devote 4 hours, do testlet #1, quit, review your work, take testlet #2 another time, and so forth. It is worth at least looking at those MCQs as I thought they were a little harder than practice exam #1.

Journey Started - January 2015
FAR - 4/2015 - Passed
AUD - 7/2015 - Passed
BEC - 8/2015 - Passed
REG - 11/12/2015 - Passed
