    I passed FAR and AUD on first attempts. Crammed BEC and took on May 28th. Any thoughts if I should wait for BEC results or just start studying for REG?

    FAR (1/15/14)- 92
    AUD (5/05/14)- 94
    BEC (5/28/14)- 85

    I would wait the six days. If you failed you can start studying again and take it at the beginning of July and take REG at the end of August. If you passed you can move on to REG and take it anytime in Q3. 6 days is a pretty short wait time. Enjoy it!

    Topic creator can I ask you how you are studying. You are passing way quicker than me and with higher scores! What is your secret. It took me 7 months to pass BEC and AUD and now it's been a year since I started and those are the only 2 I have done.

    I'm also in the same boat though, I think I bombed REG but I also wanna get FAR out of the way soon. I'm gonna try to get a chapter a day done with FAR over the next week till I get my REG score.

    @Frutch32 – I'm in the same situation as you (I took BEC on 5/29). I'm taking a break until Saturday and waiting to see my score and then I'll either restudy BEC and take it on 7/1 and move AUD to the end of August or start in on AUD next week. I figured I could use a week break since I've been at it since December and am pretty burnt out. Plus I have a ton of house/yard work that I need to catch up on. It's kinda hard because I am tempted to bust out the AUD book.

    FAR - 93 (YAY!!!!)
    REG - 93 (Double YAY!)
    BEC - 87 (Whew!)
    AUD - 96 (DONE!!!!!)

    Thank you everyone for the advice. @candlemassisawesome, I use Becker only. I watch the lecture and then do all the homework's for that lecture. I practice all the sims as well. In the week leading up to the test, I basically do non-stop progress tests. I think pounding MCQ's is the key to doing well on these exams.

    FAR (1/15/14)- 92
    AUD (5/05/14)- 94
    BEC (5/28/14)- 85

    Usually my answer is to immediately start on the next section, but if you only have 6 days until you get your score, I agree with just waiting. Use these days to recharge so you can jump right back in to studying whether it's to re-study for BEC or to move on to REG. However with the scores you've received so far, you clearly know how to study for this exam. Hopefully even cramming worked well for you.

    I took BEC Saturday and i'm going to wait for my score to decide whether to more on to Far. If I failed =( I will want to retake BEC immediately, prob first week of july. If I passed woohoo, then I'll move on. Good luck to everyone waiting!

    A - 75
    B - 78 God is good.
    F - 77 Answered prayers.
    R - 84! Done!!

    I would also wait the 4-6 days before moving on to the next section.

    I failed Reg and was a month into studying for AUD when I found out, now I try to time my test to get my scores within two weeks so I can take that time off and relax before hitting the books again.

    I am anxiously awaiting my scores for BEC hopefully I will be moving on to FAR and then finish all of my sections.
