    And knowing there are pretests on BEC gives me a little more hope. But if they made one of the easy ones a pre-test I am screwed.

    BEC - 88
    FAR - 84
    REG - 90
    AUD - 92 - 4/13/2018

    I have all old reference materials with me. Which is a good option for SIMS ?

    Need suggestions in this area as well..

    I always feel that I cant relate the SIMS and hints/documents/details given ? I keep thinking how to strike a connection between them…

    Please guide.

    Shout out to Jennifer – I am ALL DONE as well!

    To the rest – best of luck on your study. From ordering my materials to my last part of exam taken day, it took me 489 days! It took me almost 4 months to study FAR alone, and I failed once on every part, but the retake goes much better. So, don't give up. You can do it if I can (with a full time job, a toddler and a crazy work schedule reminding me of my big 4 years…)

    For BEC specific – For preparing the retake, I spent a lot of time working on IT questions (combination of Roger materials and Ninja test bank), with a passing score of 85, i scored higher on IT. However, for all the IT questions that showed up on the exam, I for sure missed at least 5 of them. The night after I took the exam, I just couldn't sleep, so I went back to check the answers, that's why I was sure I missed a bunch. So, not sure how the grading is done…Having said that, if you know you miss a few questions, don't panic, it might not be as bad as you think it is, just focus on the rest of the test.

    FAR - 83
    AUD - 79
    REG - 87
    BEC - 2/10/2018

    Study with Roger and just purchased NINJA question bank (for BEC) as well.

    Hello. My name is SNOWMAN from an asian country. I failed BEC test in FEB 71score, even I got 95% target met in ROGER CPA. One reason is I was not good condition.( Just after I cured PNEUMONIA!! OMG) Second is I had trouble during my 1 st testlet. Computer shutted down for 10 minutes. I tried stay calm, but probably, I paniced. Well, my question is what should I do for next BEC test?
    I did ROGER, little bit BECKER. But I only passed FAR at first try. DRS of ROGER is wonderful.
    I like his lecture. BUT I failed BEC anyway. I should try AUD internal control, some people say. But I don't know what is essential to BEC . Please advice me.

    Do you know any good material for BEC TBS section?
    Today I got candidate Performance. I was shocked , because my MCq is COMPARABLE BUT TBS ‘WEAKER'
    I failed BEC because of TBS………
    Actually ROGER has only 1 TBS others are all DRS.
    I thought bit strenge, so I took some part of BECKER. That gave me 11 TBS, but I found out these are not enogh. Please give me advice

    I am still getting destroyed on these BEC MCQ's… The Becker questions specifically are absurd at times – very lengthy and confusing. I even had one question that admitted so in the answer choice! Lol. Hoping to see the light at the end of the tunnel very soon. Sorry, just needed to vent a little…

    Good luck to those who wait for the score today! I never had a chance to finish my exam due to a computer shut down 🙁

    Guess, my question is mainly to Becker users…

    Just called Becker a couple of minutes ago and I was informed that BEC material for Q2 is the same as for Q1. This means there is no update for BEC about COSO. Is this correct? I know someone mentioned something about an update for COSO, starting from April. Now I am confused.

    Any clue?

    Have never been so confused in my life…I studied rigorously using Becker, finished all the chapters, did all the MCQs. Even after taking the exam I felt pretty darn good, feeling that I put in enough work to pass. To my surprise I received a 59 on BEC, I think I refreshed my page 100x was in complete awe. I did numerous progress tests on Becker, I was landing consistently in the 80s, I felt I understood and grasped the material well and the formulas. I am just so confused how I got a 59 I mean if I got in the low 70s I would have said ah just got to push a little harder next time. Even when I took BEC last year I barely studied (crammed) and got a 63. I don't know where I went wrong this time? Anyway I only have till 04/03/2018 to pass BEC within the 18 month period. I am extremely stressed, also waiting for NASBA to update CPA Central so I can re-apply for BEC and get an NTS.

    Not sure if I should continue using Becker, or purchase another test bank. I used Ninja MCQs a bit towards the end but mainly for COSO. Also does anyone know when we'll receive a score report? Thanks!

    @aimhigher I am sorry… BEC is challenging for some of us.

    At least you got your chance to take the exam in Q1. I could not finish because of the computer shut down. Today instead of waiting for NASBA to get back with me, I decided to study.

    Good luck next time! Be positive! I am sure you will get the chance to buy NTS in the next two or three days.
