@jenuno01-I missed you too! I didn't think anyone noticed my little hiatus. 🙂

I got so busy with work that I had to push all things exam related to the back burner. Then I had to hurry and dive into BEC. I've been lurking here and there but I had to take a break from posting because I get addicted! Aren't you going to Mexico??

Just got my score back unfortunately and did not pass again. I have taken BEC 3 times now and have not passed. My scores have been 64, 65, and now 57! ughh It is so frustrating becuase i feel like i know the material so well (obviously my score doesnt show that), but then i get to the test and i get thrown off by something in a question. I have been using MDS and know his questions inside and out. It has gotten to the point where i almost have everything memorized. i dont know if that is a bad thing. Would anyone reccomend getting an additional study materials so i don t just memorize anwsers? Any other suggestions would be grealty appreciated!

@Shay his name is Steve Martin. He use to work with Becker and then started his own review course. Pretty similar to Becker. Do you think the Wiley helps seeing difference questions and formats?

I haven't taken BEC yet, but am having a hard time getting through the material. One thing that's helping me with the calculation problems is when I get one wrong, I look at the answer and then do the problem again on my own without referring back to the solution. The first time I went through the questions, I just looked at the solution and thought I understood how to do it for next time, but when the next time came around, I still got it wrong. Don't know if that will help you at all, but I thought I would at least mention it b/c that approach is working better for me.

Wiley does help see topics from different point of view. I will only know more once I take the real exam for the first time. but I cant say, which is better, because I think it all depends on individual basics. I like Becker, because I have videos, problems etc. With wiley, its only me reading the book..

BEC is INSANE!!!! What's the best way to study for this section? I'm using Becker. I took the exam back when it was paper and pencil and obviously BEC wasn't part of the exam back then. This is my last section to pass but seems harder than all the other ones combined. How do you get this stuff to stick??? So exasperating that there is such a lack of motivation to study yet I know I'm on the home stretch with just one section left. So many formulas, it's just crazy…ughhhh
