I cant even read the questions, how the heck do you tackle this. I rather take reg 10 times. If BEC isn’t he hardest section, then I am at a loss for words. I nned to go to a boot camp or something. Any suggestions!!

Funny, I thought BEC was easy and am terrified of REG!

I suggest doing as many MCQs as humanly possible and don't worry about the WC. As long as you use proper grammar, punctuation, avoid contractions and stay on point, you should be OK. The way they grade for being “on point” is if you consistently repeat the same key language as what was used in the question. The WC is basically 15 free points if you're a good writer.

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

@Broadstreet -I hear ya! I'm struggling getting through the MCQs for BEC 5 in Becker. If I get this many calculation questions on exam day I won't finish in 3 hours! Hoping for more theory questions.

I don't remember mine being horrible with calculations. The writing wasn't bad. If you've ever had to write a memo under pressure in 5 minutes at work the WC should be no problem.

Bec 4/11/11 91
Aud 7/11/11 75
Reg 8/31/11 80
Far 5/24/11 86
