First time long time. I have passed all 3 parts expect BEC and if I fail this test coming up I lose far. Can you all please give me tips on studying to make sure I give myself the best shot at passing. Any and all advice is appreciated.

What are your weakest areas?

I felt pretty confident the last time I took the exam but just got my grade back with a 73. And as I’m studying now I feel I know the material. But I’m mostly just hammering away at MC. Did you do any practice with the sims and or WC? Or just as many MC as possible?

I jumped from a 70 in December '17 to an 84 in January '18. I just hammered Ninja MCQs and read up on any areas that I could see were weak based on scores. I am a pretty strong writer, so I didn't study the written area at all, and I found trying to prepare for SIMs to be overwhelming so I skipped those as well. Hammering the questions and taking notes on wrong answers helped me to understand the material and be able to pass.

Good luck!

What helped me is to write out every single ratio and formula in a notebook. I had 5 pages of ratios/formulas and before test and every day while doing mcq I would look at it and memorize it. Like become an expert in every single ratio.

hey AK, did you practice sims or WC?

I hammered MCQs and memorized like 3 pages of formulas. Someone posted a list of the formulas on here a while back and I used that list. I also used a template for the Writing part that helped me on the exam. You got this!
