Hi there.
I will be taking bec tomorrow.
I was wondering which will be generally more effective in this situation.

Quarter ends soon and I will be eligible to retake if I fail next week. so study for like another 1 MONTH, so review and retake the exam while data is still stored in brain.

Or

start studying for new section.

start working on the next section and hope for a pass on this one.
If you fail, then you can determine if you should jump back to BEC, or keep proceeding forward with the next one.
If you don't get your grade for a month you should be halfway through the next section, so just keep plugging away, and then after you sit, circle back to BEC.
2 exams per section, always. more chances, more odds.

This is an interesting question. I think it depends on how well you think you did. If you're pretty confident that you failed, you might as well just keep studying BEC and take it early July. If you think it will be close, you can just move on to your next section or just wait until the score comes out. Your score will be out June 19th, so it will be about 11 days. Not too long of a wait. It's your call and it kinda depends on how fast you need to get them knocked out.

In all fairness, everyone always feels like they fail when they walk out of the exams.
I gave all of my exams a 50/50 chance of pass when I walked out. Was almost sure I would have to retake FAR.
If you are not prepared at all and sitting, then just keep studying that section. If you've done the work and put in the time, assume a pass until you see otherwise.

I disagree sir. I felt very confident I passed my first two exams when I left the testing center. However, when I walked out of BEC last week, that is a different story. I feel more like 50/50 on that exam.
