Exam from outer space…

    Just took BEC today. While I was in and out of the exam in about 2 hours, I feel like there was a lot of material on it that I did not feel comfortable with at all. I can’t say whether the testlets got easier or harder—they all seemed hard to me. It was a bunch of material from hell that I had largely never seen before. Thanks, Becker!

    Here’s to a retake…

    FAR 07/27/11 - 87
    AUD 10/01/11 - 85
    BEC 11/15/11 - 87
    REG 01/03/12 - 92

    Don't worry. I walked out of BEC completely unsure of my performance and I had no way of telling if the testlets got Hastert and I passed with a much higher score than I anticipated. Judging by your awesome scores, I think you'll follow suit. Try to relax before delving in to your REG studies and don't fret about your experience today.

    FAR 88 (07/15/11)
    BEC 83 (08/31/11)
    AUD 81 (10/15/11)
    REG 83 (11/26/11)

    Used NIU Correspondence CPA Review

    @atelery, do you mean all the ethics/circular 230 crap?

    BEC: 87 (7/13/11)
    FAR: 86 (8/31/11)
    AUD: 99 (10/6/11)
    REG: 88 (11/30/11)
    Ethics: 100
    (Illinois)

    Used Becker for all four parts. Supplemented it with Wiley Test Bank for FAR and REG (HIGHLY recommended) and NINJA notes.

    I felt like BEC was a bit out there as well. But if you're a decent test taker (think clearly, eliminate as many choices as possible before choosing an answer, etc.) you probably did better than you felt coming out of the exam. BEC is sort of a strange monkey when it comes to the exams. All exams are tough to gauge, I felt like it could have gone either way for BEC and FAR, but they turned out well for me (and it looks like they were fine for you as well). Good luck on REG over the holidays!

    BEC 86 (08/30/11)
    FAR 84 (10/13/11)
    REG 88 (11/08/11)
    AUD 86 (11/29/11)

    @letfixthis,

    Yes, but also other ancillary materials as well, Thanks Becker for putting them as ancillary materials, this might be a good news to you cause i saw that your audit score is so high 🙂

    i think AUD knowledge would help in REG big time, at least for my testlets. good luck to you 🙂
