OK, so I have decided to give it a try for BEC since I will be in the US for REG mid-November anyways. I will have 2.5 days following my REG exam to prepare for BEC, or abour 30 hours (I will be able to study 12 hours a day).
Since I am so focused on REG now, I have no time to look into the structure of the exam i.e. what it topics are the most crucial/difficult and hence worth spending my very limited time on – I need your advice on this. Based on your experience of BEC, what would you focus on if you had only 30 hours?
This is my starting point:
– Becker book is read about 3 weeks ago
– Got about 60 pages of printed-out notes, covering all topics in Becker
– Pretty confident with the content in general
– Haven’t done any NINJA or Becker MCQs yet – could probably do 20-30 of them an hour
My plan is to combine review of notes & NINJA MCQs (or Becker?) these 30 hours. I know it will be tough, and not the best strategy, but given my situation it is worth it. I know a colleague of mine who did this a couple of months back (she put in about 30 hours), and she passed!
Thanks
