bakagal – So helpful. Thank you. I am a very determined studier and I do exactly what Becker says to do. I do every multiple choice question and I try to make sure I'm learning the concept and not just memorizing the question. (that's difficult though). I agree, some of the lectures are not extremely helpful, but I still try to watch them. One thing I don't do however, is read the notes. I can't believe I'm not doing that. I will start doing that tonight. Thanks again!

Sure. I did write a really long post somewhere in here after I got my score (probably around page 100 or so). Although it takes forever (at least for me) to read through the notes, I think it's really important as the lectures sometimes skip some material or details. Good luck!

south0085 – If you get a good grasp on the basic formulas, you will be able to work any of the problems. If you need to, make a sheet listing all the formulas, study it and then refer to it if you need to as you are working problems. It will help you to understand the formula which is key. I also take my own notes while I'm reading the chapter. It helps me to remember things and I read over them often as I progress through the other chapters.

connieCPAin2010 – Thank you for the advice. Writing the formulas down is a great idea! I print off questions that I have trouble with and keep them in my car. That way, while I driving, I can go through those questions in my head. Wow, I just realized how dangerous that is. ha.

I've found that of the people I know taking BEC using only Becker, generally speaking the people that did the best were smarter people that I know. It seemed like on average they passed more frequently.

south0085-

sorry I didn't get back to you sooner. Looks like you got your questions answered though. As for memorizing the formula, personally I try to write down the formula when I do each questions. You'll have the formulas memorized before you know and w/o much pain. You can do this!!

thank you very much guys… all your response and feedback has been very helpful and motivating.

i have the exam on 4/19 and i am just finishing up the last lecture tonight. personal issues have really gotten in the way of this one, thats for sure.

i will work all the problems over and over, do the sample finals, and read all the appendix stuff. as olinto would say “i gotta know it inside and out.”

thank you all once again, and good luck to everybody!

I am doing the questions for BEC 3 with becker right now and i swear i feel like the biggest idiot ever. none of these questions are making sense and when i look at the answer i wonder how they figured that out.

has anybody else had this issue as well? and if so, how did you get around it and overcome this problem?
