    Just wanted to know what i should be trending when completing the Becker MCQ Progress Test?

    This is my last exam and in my experience, to truly be in the “Safe Zone” or have a key indicator of how your doing, 80% + is usually the norm.

    The only reason i ask is, since Becker- BEC MCQ are actually extremely harder than the actual exam (Especially for B2,B4, B4) i do not want to get upset if i am trending a score of 60%.

    I usually score 80% or above during my review phase for all exams and it has worked so far.

    But Becker BEC MCQ are something else, especially for the cost accounting sections.

    Let me know whats a good guideline to follow by based on yalls exam or review phase experience with Becker.

    @IGOTTHEKEYS I was also wondering this. The first time I went through Becker MC I was averaging a 67% for each module. The cost accounting MC are ridiculous. Now that I have reviewed, I am getting 80% or higher on all my progress tests, now that I understand it better. But part of me feels like I am starting to memorize the answers because I am doing terrible on the BEC mock exams. I have gotten high 50's on both. Which is weird to me because how do you get 80+ on progress but 50's on mock exams. I am getting 70% for MC but like 30% on the SIMS for the mock exams. I am taking the exam tomorrow and don't know how to feel going in. i guess i hope the SIMS dont kill me

    @IGOTTHEKEYS Honestly, it was so much harder than I anticipated. The first MC testlet was more calculation based, and the second testlet was a disaster of conceptual questions. The given answers for the IT questions were terminology I have never heard of or felt like judgement based questions. The econ and coso questions all required in depth understanding. Not just identifying what goes with what component and not just supply/demand questions. I think I knew 10/31 and educated guessed the rest. On all my other exams, i have rarely ever had to guess. The sims were not as bad as the other exams but i had 2/4 sims on the same topic. I really feel like this whole exam was a hit or a miss for me. Pretty disappointing because I studied 6.5 weeks using Becker and was getting 80+ on the progress tests. Becker did a bad job preparing for this exam because it didn't go in depth enough to prepare you for the questions, that or it was written in the fine print in the text or was gone over in 1 or 2 MC. My advice would be to fine tune the areas you are weak in, and if you think you are ready, keep studying.

    @ImJustHereToPass I'm worried that they're going to make Q1 impossible since the pass rates were so much higher after the changes last year… Any advice for someone who's got 3 weeks and is only halfway through studying? My FAR credit is riding on this test

    @Emily Looking at your scores I’m sure you will be just fine! Rereading my post it does seem really scary, but I should clarify that it wasnt as horrible as I guess I made it sound haha. If you are using Becker, I would suggest not spending a ton of time on cost and IT. I was really worried about cost accounting because that is my weak area but I don’t remember having much on it, but also that’s just my experience and yours may be different. As far as the IT, 90% of the IT questions I got was not covered in Becker. I feel like there is no good way to prepare for them.
    I do feel like there is a chance I passed, but I wouldn’t be totally shocked if I didn’t because of the amount of guessing I had to do on the multiple choice.
