Who said Bec is easier than AUD? If that's true I'm screwed on Tuesday. I think the BEC material is much harder, but the AUD questions a much trickier. I have no choice but to take studying light during weekdays and then pound on weekends due to my work schedule. Last practice test my score came up a little from 69 to 77. Still sucks, but I will try my best getting tired of stressing.

Reg 11/15/2011 - 80
Aud 02/28/2012 - 81
Bec 05/31/2012 - 78
Far 08/31/2012 - 83 Do you believe in Miracles, YES !!!

Just got my score assessment back and seems like i destroyed the MCQ's, stronger in every CAT. Sims destroyed me however, as that was the only “weaker” I received. Damn you Sims, damn you!!!!!!!

Mine for AUD was “weaker” in MCQ's and “comparable” in SIMS – damn tricky MCQ's! I should have looked over every testlet before moving on like I did with FAR but with the morning I had that day I just wanted to get home before the snow we got here froze over and I was stuck…. Oh well. Next time we will get it! BEC is going to destroy me I already know.

Sorry didn't not to mean to offend anyone on BEC. I am more like a numerical person. I hate memorization, and I can't memorize well… So, BEC is easier for me. Plus I took at the end of 2010 when there was no sim on BEC. Keep the good work guys!

Any advice on for the SIMS? For the MCQ's I just kept going of the practice questions and taking progress tests. I must have done at least 15-20 progress tests, and went over the HW questions 9-10 times for each chapter. I guess I need to learn to apply all of those memorized facts.

Yes for me the SIMS I used the research tab on EVERY SINGLE ONE of them! It's easier for me to do “real world” simulations where you have to apply the facts then it is for MCQ's because I'm like well that one could be right no wait that one's right no wait…. I second guess a lot. I need to just stick with my gut and go over the testlets before proceeding.

But I would say with the SIMS just try to leave 1:30-2 hours for them and use the research tab!

Just rescheduled my BEC until April 2nd. I do not feel comfortable at all and I know if I walk in on Monday I am going to fail. So here's to having a few more weeks to study time to really nail this test! Then study and take AUD before my REG review course starts on April 30th….

Good luck to all!

@AshleyCap – Hi!! Sorry you had to reschedule BEC, I thought about rescheduling it as well… but I figure, eh if I fail (which I probably will), I'll just retake it in April lol. Good luck studying, good to hear from ya.

@jenuno01 that's what you said about AUD and you got a 75! I bet you'll be fine with BEC 😉 Pretty bummed that I had to reschedule but I just know I was not ready for that exam. Can't wait to hear about your experience! Good luck!
