Taking BEC on August 25th. Just took REG on May 26th. Probably didn't pass it to be honest. Hoping I can knock BEC out of the park so that I can fully focus on REG if I need a retake. I've got until May 28th next year to pass these two or else I lose FAR and I ain't looking to take that beast again.

Hey I'm taking BEC on July 15. I'll study from July 2 until the day before the test. I took twenty days for FAR and 14 days for AUD so I think I'll be able to pass.

My FAR and AUD exams were this may, so I won't get the scores back until August. I'm pretty sure I passed FAR but I feel like I failed audit. Studying for Audit was more challenging than FAR. The material was dull and the becker lectures were horrible (at least compared to hen FAR lectures).

Hopefully I'll be able to pass them all on the first try.

AUD - 96
BEC - 99
FAR - 97
REG - 91

Becker Practice: FAR (75, 78) AUD (78, 84) REG (80, 69**) BEC (N/A)

**Computer glitched and made me skip a simulation so I had a 0% for one sim.

Becker Flashcards are key!

What's up everyone. Took FAR on May 12th and I'm currently scheduled for BEC July 17th, thinking of bumping it up to the 10th or 3rd if I can find a slot near me. @jdb7643 I feel like BEC is pretty dull, too. I'm on section 6 of Roger right now and disappointed since everyone said his lectures are interesting but I have a hard time keeping focused. Good luck to all this quarter!

I took Audit today and will be taking BEC (again) some time in July. I have been using Roger but saw that Becker has a live online class, I was thinking of giving a try. Has anyone taken a Becker online live class?

Just keep trying.

Just took auditing yesterday, worst part is not finding out the scores until August. Now i'm starting FAR. I used becker for auditing and actually have bought all 4 sections (received a discount). What are these ninjas review things I keep hearing about? How are those? Any tips for FAR?

Thanks all!

@rivasgirl13

you may want to sit for FAR first. It has the most material and takes the longest to study.

I don't feel as though I have enough time to study for FAR. I feel as though I barely have enough for BEC. I was planning on sitting for far in December when I should have less work (I work full-time).

Hi everyone. Does anyone know how to solve this question? It's from Ninja MCQ. The explanation doesn't help. The answer is C.

The full-employment gross domestic product is $1.3 trillion, and the actual gross domestic product is $1.2 trillion. The marginal propensity to consume is 0.8. When inflation is ignored, what increase in government expenditures is necessary to produce full employment?

A. $100 billion

B. $80 billion

C. $20 billion

D. $10 billion

I took BEC (again) on 5/01 and FAR on 5/31 so I will be studying for both until score release just in case. I lose audit score 10/4 so I have to turn the application process over as fast as possible upon score release.

Hi everyone, I recently started studying for BEC using Becker. My exam is on July 8th, I work full time in public accounting and have other commitments outside work. I don't think I'm studying efficiently since I take forever going through the video lectures and I feel I'm running out of time. At this point I want to skip the lectures and go straight to the skills practice and then MCQ. I've been studying a lot for 2 weeks and I'm still in chapter 2. Any suggestions?

Thanks
