    Becker Question –

    Hello A71 community,

    Is it worth the additional expense? How does the finale review differ from the main course?

    Thank you.

    Funny you should ask, I am doing the “final” FAR review as we speak.

    Some people have considered buying NINJA MCQs instead. Now that I am taking the course, it is completely unlike doing MCQs like a machine gun. It is more lectures and more MCQs and SIMS. The focus is on more lectures and going over another book. It is, in fact, a review course.

    Personally, I am very glad I am taking it. It is clearing up some govt/NFP issues I had and sprinkling over every topic. I would say it goes into a bit more detail than the regular course. I really like Peter Olinto’s explanation of CF statements and this Brown woman is way better than Tim Gearty for govt stuff.

    If you have the cash, buy it. It will take about 4 days to complete-this you should know. It means I wont be doing as many MCQs leading up to the actual exam, but I would rather get an understanding of the concepts.

    I guess I will have an accurate assessment if I pass 🙂

    I used the FAR final review and thought it was beneficial. I imagine that if I took great, awesome notes while reviewing the Becker text, it would look a lot like Becker final review. The additional SIM's at the end are helpful.

    I think a good blend is to do the Final review during the day and do a few hours of NINJA MCQs at night.

    I've read that Becker's regular Review Course is enough on this forum. Would you disagree? Just curious. I ask because I am just starting off in my FAR studies using Becker's regular Review Course.

    I did the Becker final review. I liked it 🙂 Unfortunately though I only had four days of final review for far and didn't get through it all…I would leave at least a week for final review ..maybe even longer. And the mcqs were great for the final review too!!! It helped me with some questions during the far test..however if u r going to purchase it leave one week for the becker final review and at the least a couple of days to do progress tests. I didn't get a comprehensive final review and i think I'll have to take the test again :/
