    @zomord thats not really something any of us can answer- we all get different exams with different material in different quantities… I know this isn't an answer you want to hear but its the truth- so my advice would be to know it as well as you can…

    and they ask me why I drink...

    FAR- 61-next time I'll ask for lube instead of a calculator
    REG-75- Never been so happy to see such a low grade
    BEC- 8/11
    AUD- 9/2

    Posted this in the BEC exam thread.

    Took it today for the third and hopefully last time. Wasn’t as IT/COSO heavy as past exams, but it had a bunch of tricky calc questions. First testlet seemed pretty easy, but the second one was nuts. Flagged maybe 8 or 9 and had no clue on at least 5 of them. The third one had some tough ones as well, but didn’t seem as hard as the second.

    The IT questions seemed more straightforward than past exams and didn’t include a bunch of foreign terminology. Had maybe 3 that used terms I wasn’t sure of, but was able to make an educated guess. The COSO questions weren’t too bad, but there were a couple that may have tripped me up. It’s frustrating because I knew what they were asking about, but never seen it asked that way.

    I feel the WC’s will be the deciding factor if I’m going to take it again or not. I swear I have no luck with them and keep getting random topics that are tough to answer. I had about 50 minutes and wish I gave myself an extra 10 for them.

    Overall I felt better about this one than when I got my 73, but you never know with this exam. I’m just happy I can move on to REG and study something totally new.

    FAR: 75 Roger & Ninja (notes/flashcards/audio/MCQ)
    AUD: 73, 81
    BEC: 71, retake 8/29

    I would honestly rather do 30 AUD simulations than take that exam again. That was so freaking difficult.+

    Hello All,

    3rd times a charm! or so they say. I am scheduled to take BEC (for the 3rd time :[) November 26th. I really hope I get to pass this time. Who else is taking the exam on that day? Any suggestions?

    Thanks All!

    Just a quick question for people that have taken the BEC exam before. For COSO, will I be fine with the answering the questions if I know the main components (i.e. control environment, risk assessment, etc.) and then knowing the 17 subsections that make up the different categories? Or does the exam go even more in depth then that? Also, does anyone have good advice on how to study for the IT portion of the exam?

    Hey everyone, this is my first post on here. I'm taking BEC in a week, and I'm a little nervous because I can't seem to get more than 75% of the questions right in Roger CPA review. Has anyone else had something like this happen to them? How did it turn out?
