    I just took my BECKER BEC practice exam and only scored a 72. My exam is in a week, and I’m really worried. A friend of mine told me that I should add about 8-10 points to my practice score on Becker, bc they make their practice tests harder than the real exam to encourage people to study harder. Is this true?

    The forum has a topic covering this. It looks like you generally will score higher.

    A 72 on a Becker practice exam means you are in pretty good shape for the actual exam. Becker puts some of the most ridiculous twists in their practice exam problems. Take a look at that thread posted above, it will give you a good idea that you are not alone. Remain calm, don't let those things ruin your confidence.

    I think there are lot of threads talk about the practice test scores. Also there is a google spreadsheet in REDDIT forum comparing the actual score vs becker score.

    I scored in test 1 – 91,67,67 and test 2 – 62,71,71. In the actual BEC scored 80.

    You are doing great 🙂

    I got a 75 on the first BEC final, 72 on the second, which I took yesterday. For the other three exams, my actual exam score has been about 10 – 15 points higher than my Becker final exam average. I've seen people's Becker final exam scores be in the 50s and still pass the actual exam. You're in a good position to pass.

    look at the Becker vs Actual score thread.. it's very reassuring. It helped me during the 3 week waiting period for Audit.

    I actually also scored a 72 on my BEC Becker Practice Exam and passed the actual exam! I think you are in good shape. Remember you will still get points for the essay questions as well!
