I have a question that I hope you can help me with…. I purchased the Becker CD’s and installed them on my PC. I have taken and passed all but one of the exams (BEC left).. I was checking to see if my software was up to date and noticed an expiration date of November 2013.. Does this mean my software ( downloaded from my CD’s) will no longer work after November….or will it no longer be supported but I can still take practice exams and do study questions etc?

My exam is Friday and I've lost motivation after passing FAR. The main motivator I have is the fear of a 74.

AUD: 84 02/22/13

FAR: 84 07/12/13
BEC: ? 08/30/13

I just saw I passed FAR too I am excited and I want to jump up and down but I need to sit down and study 🙁

I am so tired from the stress in the past few days regarding the scores now I know BEC is my last one I need to give everything I've got to pass it but I am so tired.

lawlypop how far are you on your review? I just started about a week ago to study and I am almost 1/2 done reviewing my second round of MC, I feel like I don't have much time 🙁

When studying segregation of duties in IT, I feel like my real-world knowledge is limited to the fraction-of-a-penny scheme from Office Space, as I often day dream about it when the topic comes up.

@oilgaslb Here's your positive reinforcement! I've been using Becker self-study for all four exams. And let me tell you… when I was studying for FAR… I would get in the 50 range on progress tests, and consistently made around a 60 when I would try the practice tests. I passed the real thing with a 79. Not that FAR is the same as BEC… but I find (from personal experience and reading this forum) that studying and real test experience are hardly similar! My personal best study plan is just continuous practice questions, especially in my weak areas. That's not super novel, haha, but I'd say you're definitely on the right track! Good luck!

Currently waiting on my Aud and Reg scores in Texas… so I probably won't get them until Tuesday morning 🙁 And Tuesday morning is when I take BEC!! I know what you all mean… this is my fourth test. I've been killing myself all summer and it's just SO HARD to motivate myself to study… Currently going through notecards and then I think I'll do some progress tests….

@mickeywanttopass @lawlypop I'm having the same problem. I was pretty sure I failed FAR but needed confirmation. Then after those few days of stressing and refreshing I found out I passed! I knew if I failed FAR failing BEC couldn't be an option.. well I passed and now I'm feeling more sick of studying than ever..
