ok i have the becker 2009 text book and software. I passed REG, FAR and AUD in 2010 using becker as well. Now with the 2011 changes for BEC im thinking I need updated material?? I called Becker and they want $600 for it, I researched Yaeger and its $400. Then I looked into Bisk and they have an option for $160 (which I would supplement with my 2009 becker material if I chose this route).

Im trying to figure out if I REALLY need to purchase totally new material for BEC. Where is it outlined the specific changes for BEC? That way I can assess rather I need to purchase totally new (and expensive) material. I wish I was allowed to do the 2011 software upgrade for Becker because I do have 2010 passmaster but it was not for BEC it was for FAR and REG.

I need to figure this out sooner than later because I plan to sit for my LAST part in February 2011.

Thanks in advance!

So, where is this illustrious, yet elusive Globalization information to study? I've read pronouncements from all of the International Boards and the likes – they don't tell you much of anything of use. I may just check out a book here in the library. Two & three hundred dollars for a cd seems more than just a little ridic – especially considering several folks haven't even produced the product yet.

I'm always looking for the best value as would most consumers in this day and age. Sellers always want the most for their product…yet, when they go out shopping they are always wanting to get a “deal”.
