    I’ll be taking BEC on Wednesday of next week. I have watched the videos (Yaeger) twice, written notes, studied flashcards, and am now in the process of pounding out as many MCQs as possible every day. I am feeling more and more confident each day.

    I have not practiced any WCs. My thought is that if I know the material, I should be able to handle any WC that is thrown my way. I am a very good writer (or so I’ve been told), and I frequently write memos, letters to clients and the IRS, etc., at work on a daily basis.

    Is my strategy of focusing on MCQs correct? It seems that practicing WCs may be more for people that have trouble writing. What do you think?

    Focus on the multiple choice… If you are decent at writing the written communication should not be a problem given you allow enough time at the end of the test to complete all of them. I knew that to do three written communications exercises that it roughly took 50-55 minutes including time to proof read. Therefore, I made sure I was done with the multiple choice with enough time to finish the written communication.

    I haven't taken any of the final exams yet. (using Yaeger, not Becker). I think I'll give one a try tomorrow, just to see where I stand.
