My NTS runs out April 16th for BEC, which is my last section. I was considering not taking it then, and scheduling it for sometime in May. I'm just worried that with it being tax season I wont have enough study time to be able to pass. If I fail I would have to wait until July to take it again, and still have to pay the $300.

I studied for two weekends and in the week between (while working) for BEC and that was sufficient. Chapters 1 and 2 should not take you much time to grasp...chapter 4 is kind of impossible to actually study...you get all kinds of questions on IT....focus most of your time on Chapter 3 and 5. Definitely worth cramming and shooting for 4/16.

I don't think I want it hanging over my head that long. I've passed the other 3 sections on the first attempt and feel like I could do the same on BEC.

offlineMemberI ran into time contraints in that I received my NTS earlier than I thought I would (it only took them a week and a half to get it to me) so I opted to take BEC and do the best I could. I'd hoped to study for it during June and take it in July. I studied for two and a half weeks, the last week about 6 hours/day and passed on the first attempt back in January. I did have more time though, since it was during the holidays. Good luck with whatever you decide.
