Overall I am scoring 80% using Wiley. Doing well on most, but weak on variances and cost when the problems are multi step. The performance measure stuff is starting to click. Should I just keep studying for a month or move it up.

Honestly, I wouldn't move it up. I took the exam on 4/16 and the questions were very obscure. I would go back through the Wiley book and zero in on the small details.

Have you practiced your writing? Focus on the writing which could be your saving grace. Have you reviewed the AICPA recently released questions and essays?

I wouldn't move it up either. It looks like you have a your FAR set up already too, so you have a good plan on how you're going to schedule your studying and whatnot.

I'd use the extra time and do more and more mcq's.

Good luck!

If you think you can pass it, I'd move it up a couple weeks. You could risk forgetting information you've already learned and more importantly miss out on a memorial day trip to the beach. BEC should only take about 5-6 weeks to study for.

I was weak on variances until I looked hard at the visual diagram in Wiley's book and then found the example and just pounded those MCQ's until I understood them. Seriously find a good multistep and do it 5 times in a row. You'll get it.
