AnonymousInactiveNo you don't have to be stronger in ALL topics. However, it says on your score card that compared to others that got a 75+ you were comparable in all categories. So I'm saying, that maybe if you got stronger in one category and comparable in the rest you could've passed. I'm not sure and everyone has their own theory of scores are curved or not. The AICPA says the scores are not “curved” in the sense of what a college curve means. But they are weighed somehow based on the level of the questions (easy,med,hard) and how others answer it. You can go to the aicpa website and read more about it. That's just my interpretation. Don't look to much into it your studying for a whole new exam now. So start fresh and don't focus to much on that score card. Good luck!

highlightnumbParticipantHi Everyone I took BEC today. First testlet was like med, Second was med to hard and the Third Testlet was the easiest. I know people get nervous when they see an easy testlet but I didn't mind at all because I feel like I did well on them regardless. There were about 3 or 4 questions where I just threw a hail mary but other than that I felt decent about the questions that were given to me. My WC's were such a blessing all 3 were topics that I knew about so I was easily able to put my 2 cents down along with a little BS'n. All I have to say is that I love the WC's and thank God there are no Sims on the BEC exam because that would suck. I definitely know which WC will be a pretest but whatever, I answered it anyway. I gave myself an hour to do the WC's which was just enough time for me. Like someone said before on here, if you study hard, you will pass. I can't say I didnt have calculations on this exam but I can definitely say the calculations were not that bad. They were not nearly as long as the ones we have been practicing on not even close. My exam was not COSO and IT heavy like other people have stated but I do remember Variance Analysis standing out. All and all I walked out of the exam feeling pretty good matter of fact, better than the other exams. I feel awesome right now because I think I passed, It's the end of the week, I can relax tonight and for a couple more days before I tackle Audit. Good Luck Yall. Cali Boy here!

AnonymousInactiveI took Bec before in November but I only took it because my NTS was expiring. I did about 300ish ninja mcq and listened to the Becker lectures half-ass on my way up north and I got weaker in every category including WC I got a 55. So hopefully now that I'm actually studying I can raise my score 20 points lol. I will have to look at variances one more time that seems to be my nemeses
