    Need some advice… On my last exam (BEC) and I seem to be struggling. got a 66% on my last Becker practice exam and am averaging 73% on Ninja questions. I am scheduled to sit on Monday and am worried I am not ready. Plan is to keep taking multiple choice as much as possible but I am getting burnt out. Should I postpone until later in the testing period or just sit now? My first text does not expire until 1/31/2020 so I have 4 chances to pass BEC but for some reason have a horrid fear I wont be able to pass it.

    I was in exactly same position as you few months ago. Was scoring similar with Becker and supplemented Ninja too. I almost did postpone but ended up going anyway just for the experience. I got 79! the best surprise ever 🙂 I spent my last few days just drilling MCQ's and reviewing mock exams. Good luck!

    BEC 79

    FAR 78

    AUD 88

    REG 83

    Will, I know how you feel. I keep fighting the urge to reschedule reg because I just don't feel ready. I am studying and going over questions, notes etc. but just don't feel ready. I guess I don't want to say I didn't pass another time. And I guess I get a false sense of time because my nts has not and will not expire right now, but I really don't want to waste time either. So, confidence is all we have and just face it, if I fail, well try again. I guess I'll keep doing the mcq's, notes, audio and etc and take the test. In my opinion take it and get it over with.

    Sit. Your scores on Becker and Ninja are consistent with those who sat for the exams in the past and passed. Ultimately, they're just practice questions and not wholly representative of what you'll be tested on Monday. When I took FAR, my Ninja hard average was less than 60% and I trended 75 – my actual score was 93. On BEC, it was around 55/66 and I scored 91. Good luck to you.

    Sit. You can't let Becker mock scores influence you one way or the other because they don't reflect actual exam performance. If you are trending 73 in Ninja, you are pretty well prepared. I was between 72 and 80 before I took all of my exams and didn't fail any.

    Look at your Ninja progress report and see which areas you are struggling in, and hit those hard these last few days.

    AUD - 95
    BEC - 87
    FAR - 84
    REG - 90
