Hey guys. I took my second practice test last night and got a 62. My MCQ’s were an 84% but my SIMS were a disaster. How should I go about reviewing today and tomorrow?

AUD - 78

FAR - 53, 85

BEC - 79

REG - 77

Do practice SIMS and try to understand what the question is asking for and then understand why the answer may be wrong. If you are doing so well in MCQ's, you should be able to score higher in SIMS. Have you answered all of the practice MCQ's too many times or do you know the material and calculations? Also, possibly try to find some YouTube videos on BEC SIMS and see if any of those can help you. Good luck! You got this, my REG exam is on Monday so I feel your pain.

AUD - NINJA in Training
BEC - NINJA in Training
FAR - NINJA in Training
REG - 82

@Job

At this point you want to give yourself the greatest chance of passing without overworking yourself. By continuing to do MCQ/SIMS till the finish line will exactly be what you do. The more you do between tonight and tomorrow can hurt you rather than help you (Burn Out).

My advice:

Do MCQ/SIMS through tonight ONLY!. Tomorrow work on solidifying what you know and filling in the gaps where you might need some help. This will be done by reviewing notes, audio classes and/or watching lectures. Whichever way you feel comfortable but I suggest not doing ANY MCQ. Take it easy tomorrow as well, enjoy the day-go out to lunch, exercise, or something of enjoyment. Then get good night sleep and wake up Monday knowing you did the best you can.

Also some words of encouragement:
i know you are using Becker (I have no experience with it – using Roger and Ninja), however I do know from experience and from posts on here that most people do better than their scores during practice regardless of the review course.

Good Luck.

BEC - Passed

REG - Passed

AUD - Passed

FAR - Passed
