    ok. Long story short I work in a busy CPA firm. Our busiest season was over 10/15. So my plan was to take a week off and start studying right away. Unfortunately, last week into October two employees quit and I was left with foundation work due today!. My test is November 30th. I just started studying last Nov 12th. I skimmed through 60% of Roger’s lecture and I’m making flashcards as we speak. Is it doable to to pass BEC with roughly 2.5 weeks of study? Should I reschedule for January, or take it and if I fail take it again in January. Right now I’m getting 60% in most areas for my quizes. and extremely low percentages in cost accounting.

    it is doable, is it advised… No!

    Hammer questions on IT, COSO, Micro/Macro Economics, Cost Accounting until you are sick to your stomach.. Do not procrastinate.. make a schedule & stick to it.

    Go through your MCQ and understand why the answers are correct/incorrect

    It is doable to pass BEC in 2.5 weeks, I've seen many people say that did that on this forum.

    I'm not a fan of pushing your exam back, as I feel it is a way for you to put off studying. If you do put it off, I wouldn't go until January, I'd look and see if you can take it around December 10th, that gives you another 10 days to study which increases your odds.

    Good luck!

    I'm so lucky. I found a seat available for December 9th. Hiya! I think I will be more confident with 10 more days to study. Thank you both!!!
