BEC is the last test I need to finish. I've gotten a few 74s on this test before.
I only have two more shots at this test before FAR expires. Hoping i don't need the second try.AUD - 81

This will be my first time taking the exam.
What is everyone using to study? I'm using Becker self study, ninja audio and notes.

December 20, 2016 at 9:03 am #1396878QueenCPAParticipantHello Everyone,
I am taking my first exam, BEC, during the second week of January and have been using Becker plus Ninja MCQ's.
This is a great forum and have learned alot by reading previous posts and people's strategies.
However, Is there anyone who used the same combination (Becker + Ninja MCQ) and can you possibly provide me with any advice on how to maximize my chances.
Thank you

This will be my second attempt and hopefully last exam. I ended up making a 72 during the 4th quarter testing window and FAR will be expiring 2/28/17. My Becker study materials have also expired, was wondering if I should stick to Becker or go with something else? I study really well by watching the lectures, reading the chapters, and then doing the homework.

I'm struggling on section 3 of Ninja MCQ (Financial Management). Feel free to ask questions on that section. Teaching/explaining helps me learn!
Let's keep this thread alive and help each other destroy this test. I want to be a CPA in 2017!

Let me share with you my suffering with my first section in my CPA jurney
I have sat for my first CPA exam on 20 April 2016, it was BEC section and I scored 33,
Then I have retaken the exam on 5 July and the score decreased to 24!On 1st November, was my last and third attempt! unfortunately scored (65)! I am literally angry now !!
Anyway, my target now became to pass BEC and REG before the new version in next April,
My plan is to take BEC on 3 January and REG on 9 March,
Although I often failed with very low marks and always feel that I am hopeless, but I don’t want to give up.
So my next exam going to be after two weeks ( January 3rd )I am using Roger and Ninja MCQs this time
GOOD LUCK ALL!

If the plan doesn’t work, change the plan, but never the goalDecember 20, 2016 at 1:41 pm #1397168pharaohParticipantYes. Let's keep it alive. I am still in early stage (watching lectures), I will be here for sure when I start hitting questions.
@CPYay- Do you go through the IPQ before Ninja?
@QueenCPA – Do whatever works best for you. Some people like to watch lectures, some don't, some understand better when they take notes, some don't. For me I started with Becker, didn't like it, tried Gleim, didn't click until I came across Roger and it was there it is, this is what works for “me”AUD - 93

I don't touch the IPQs for the most part. Strictly use Roger for the videos while I follow along with the book and take notes.
I will go back to the book to understand a topic I need more guidance on. Other than that, Ninja MCQs are what I do once videos are completed. I'll maybe do a set of 20 IPQs just before my exam to see how I fare against Roger's (I feel like Ninja is harder).

Hoping to be licensed by year-end!December 20, 2016 at 4:03 pm #1397346Jsn3004ParticipantWilson Corporation has a major competitor that produces a product that is a close substitute for Wilson's good. If the coefficient of cross‐elasticity of demand for Wilson's product with respect to the competitor's product is 2.00 and the competitor decreases its price by 5%, what is the expected effect on demand for Wilson's product?
A: A 5% increase in demand.
B: A 5% decrease in demand.
C: A 10% increase in demand.
D: A 10% decrease in demand.The answer is D. Can someone please explain why the answer is not B? I made up my own numbers 200/100. I thought if the price (100) decreases 5% then the quantity demanded (200) would have to decrease 5% as well so the elasticity of demand remains at 2.00.
FAR: Pass
BEC: PassDecember 20, 2016 at 4:25 pm #1397372cpaMD86ParticipantWilson's coefficient of 2 is directly correlated to his competitor's product (substitutes). So, a 5% decrease in price would result in a 10% decrease in demand for Wilson. (2 * .05)
