    I/T is a bunch of non-sense.

    Every subsection has like 15 subsections. 500 different job titles all are similar but at the same time different.

    @littlenumberrobot How many hours did you put in into BEC the first time? I am shooting for 100 hours, about five weeks. Sometimes I wonder if it is enough.

    Back from my test. I posted this in “exam experience” but I'll repost it here:

    First testlet: Very Easy

    Second Testlet: Pretty hard (good sign), marked about ten, a lot of theory questions that I had to guess on

    Third Testlet: Moderate

    I went into written communication with about 1 hr 40 min still left on the clock. I took my time organizing and writing those.

    Overall, not too bad. Based on previous exams I am guessing (hoping?) I passed.

    Without giving anything specific away, I'm glad I didn't spend too much time on some of the difficult calculation problems, because I didn't end up seeing a lot of them. The ones I guessed on were more theoretical. But any test could be different, so who knows?

    Good luck to those yet to take it.

    Taking the BEC section on tuesday, try to concentrate on B1-B3 today and B4-B6 tomorrow.

    For me BEC is the most scarring section of this exam, because you cannot prepare yourself 100% to succeed. A lot of those questions on the exam are not covered by any review course I guess, there are a lot of MCQ which require a general understanding of business.

    So I try to relax myself and keep doing the lectures for the next two days, progress tests and the final exam from Becker.

    By the way the passing rate at the BEC part is the highest one in 2012 😉

    Goodluck to all you who just took it.

    Everybody in exam experience is saying there are so few calculations. Im mostly worried/studying B2-B3 with all the different formulas and such. I'll be pretty bummed if I spent so much review time and none show up, hah.
