    Hey Joseph.Collins,

    I'm using the 2010 Roger textbook, with new updates and the 2011 Roger videos..I did get the Wiley test bank to supplement, as I have used it for Aud and Reg and found it to be very useful. I just wish I had a better idea of the content breakdown…this exam seems the most vague one of them all:(

    wannabetaxacct: Hi, the updates to your 2010 Roger study materials – is it mainly Corporate Governance, Strategic Planning, and differences in IT? I believe everything else is the same except for the difference in how much each section is weighted?

    Thanks!

    Hi Joesph.Collins,

    The updated materials are corp governance, Internal controls, ERM, project management, economic globalization and some IT stuff. It does appear that the cost acctng, esp variances are a lot more concise. I'm using the 2010 wiley test bank for the previous materials and the 2011 Wiley test bank for the new stuff…I wish I had just bought the new Roger 2011 textbook instead of printing out the updates, my study area is swimming with material🙁

    To all those folks who have taken BEC in 2011:

    Is the new exam now adaptive?

    Did you experience a lag while loading the sims?

    Thanks!

    It was probably adaptive. I couldn't really tell because the whole thing seemed easy to me. It could be that I just studied really hard and my strong sections before were all the ones with actual calculations and the rest was a lot better this time around. The lag wasn't too long at all – maybe 10 seconds. I had more than enough time. I felt bad moving on with so much time so I went over each MC question more than twice. I had about an hour and a half left when I got to the written parts and I left the exam with half and hour to spare.

    I took the BEC exam Monday and there was a lag in loading the simulations. I was prepared for that to happen because of posts I read from Jeff and others who have sat. It's really not that bad though. I couldn't quite tell if the exam was adaptive. There were a few questions from the first testlet that I could not figure out….and the same for the third testlet. It could be a sign that I wasn't performing well….I'll just have to see when I get my score….fingers crossed for a PASS!

    FAR - 75! 🙂

    Hi Lynn2007, thanks for sharing your BEC experience. How long was the lag? how was time management? did you have enough time for all the WC's? I'm sure you'll pass!
