    Hi,

    I am 10 days away from my BEC exam. Right now I am at at the stage on which I know most of the contents in the book but still don’t know every single detail. I found myself hard to read anymore recently. But I am afraid to forget anything if I do not keep on reading every single day. So what do you guys do 10 days from the exam? Any suggestions?

    Thank you.

    I'd do MCQs until your fingers cramp and your eyes start to twitch. Try to get as many in as possible and take notes on the ones you got wrong. Make sure you understand why an answer was right/wrong instead of just going through the motions of answering questions.

    I took a week off of work before my BEC exam and spent about one full day on each section. I'd use that day to really solidify my understanding of the section, write up the most important formulas/things to remember on a sheet for review later, and then move onto the next section the following day. It worked for me, hopefully it'll work for you. Good luck!

    I'm in the same boat and I'm doing exactly as the above entails along with committing as many formulas to memory as possible. Then when you feel tired from doing MCQ reread/rewrite your notes. Then hop back to MCQ. Rinse and repeat till exam day.

    Oh woo. This is the tax season so we are working overtime and it is barely impossible to take too many days off. :'(

    I stayed up studying for a few weeks now. Feeling so sleepy at work too 🙁
