    So I failed BEC in september and my retake is in a few weeks. I used Becker first time and while plenty of people pass just using Becker, I feel like Becker was bad with IT and the IT questions were foreign to me on the exam. Has anyone had more success learning IT from ninja or roger, etc?

    I’d just not recommend Wiley. The BEC lectures for IT are super long. Normally, Wiley videos are about 4-15 minutes long. This guy talkS 20-40 minutes in the lectures. I appreciate that he follows a presentation guidelines: intro, body, conclusion, but his intro and conclusion are easily 5 minutes long each. Before I started studying for BEC, I was wondering why it was showing me I needed more time for BEC than for REG. Now I know. I didn’t find his lectures useful as he often would be telling a side story and by the time he would get to the main points, he would lose my attention. He would often sing, make weird noises, bring squeaky toy animals – annoying as hell when you’re trying to study after a long day at work. I felt like he was treating the lectures more like class lessons. He needed to be short and on point. Wiley is good (minus the glitches), don’t get me wrong, but I was totally disappointed with their BEC section.

    I had Wiley and personally did not find it effective either. I felt overwhelmed with it. But, if more information is what you're looking for I would suggest it. Maybe try a free trial for it. If anything, just read the IT portion and maybe some of their mcq. I just retook BEC on 10/28 and had a few IT mcq. Pay close attention to the the options and rule out the choices you feel can't be right. They throw in some of the most random IT terms I wonder how they expect us to know the definition of them. I'm using Becker now and feel much better with it. I Failed BEC with a 70 last time hope I passed this time, but we will see.

    Curious to know how you went from a 44 to a 76 with FAR. I will start to restudy for it and am sitting for it 1/27/2020.

    @F the 44 and 40 with FAR and AUD were 2 years ago when I graduated. Did not take it seriously and was not dedicated at that time.

    FAR - 76

    BEC - 84

    REG - 86
