Took BEC yesterday. Coming out of the exam, I thought it went well, only took me 2 hours to complete (which is what I would expect), but the content was really bazaar and of course now I am starting to think of all the ways I could have failed it…IT questions were off the wall, in fact they all kind of were. I don’t think I could have done anything differently in my studying. Now I wait until February 28th. Giving myself a couple of weeks to focus on my work, and then going into AUD prep….

I took BEC on 21st too. I wish I checked the score release dates before scheduling it, now I have to wait till Feb 28th for the results. If I fail it I have to take it with the new CPA format, which adds simulations.
for me the first two testlets were easy but the third one has the weirdest questions which for some I had no idea what chapters are they from, so I just followed my gut.
do you have any idea if writings also include pre-testing question? do you think if my writings are on point but does not have strong vocabulary, I'd still get decent score on those?

I feel so depressed right now, BEC is my third one. Based on my history of scoring I am afraid I'm gonna fail the first attempt, but this time its no joke cause the second time fall in the new method.:(

FAR 73,85
AUD 74,75
BEC 1/21/17
REG I would have scheduled it if I was sure I'm going to pass BEC

I took BEC on 1/21 and wish I had checked the score release schedule also. Waiting for Feb 23 is going to be torture.

My exam experience was similar to to FAR and I passes that with an 84. First testlet was very easy followed by a much harder second testlet. Third testlet was somewhere in between. No idea if I passed but felt the same way after FAR too.

Overall I think this exam was was very tricky with both conceptual and computational questions. Memo questions I knew enough to at least get partial credit on all of them. Not sure why this section got the reputation of being easy. Was just as difficult if not more so compared to FAR for me.

AUD - 90
BEC - 84
FAR - 84
REG - 86

Yeah, the score release will take a while which stinks…I agree about it not being easy if for nothing else then the fact that it's all so random….

WC does have one pretest question, and I think those, as long as they relate to the question and are written well, should be fine.
