I know this question gets thrown around here a lot, but what the heck. I’ve passed FAR & AUD, then took a break for tax season. I’m not exactly ready to jump in full speed yet cause I want let my brain recover a bit, but I’m trying to start planning my next step. What do you all recommend? I can’t decide if I should take REG or BEC next. Also, approx. how many weeks of prep time have you taken for them? I have about 10-20 hours of study time available per week and I use Roger. His schedule for REG is 6 weeks, but that’s only four days a week. I’d appreciate some input, thanks guys 🙂

I would definitely take REG next. It's much harder than BEC, and by the time your fourth exam rolls around, you'll probably start to feel the burnout. If I had taken REG as my last exam, I probably would not have passed. I study 15-20 hours a week and did REG in 8 weeks and am doing BEC in 6 weeks. You could probably manage the same.

I think if you can pass FAR you should get the license for crying out loud. But at any rate, I would go with Reg since tax season is over and a lot is still in your mind. It won't be too much to worry about except Business law. Then again 🙁 …

REG then BEC. About 10 weeks for REG and about 8 for BEC should suffice… good luck! Yes, and I agree-if you pass FAR, you should be given extra points:) LOL

Thanks everyone for the advice. I was just looking at the testing windows and score release dates, and have decided to go with REG and try to take it before the June 10 cutoff. I had planned on taking it mid-July but do NOT want to wait till Sept 11 for my score!! That means I have 7 weeks so I better get hustling. So much for a mental break…

@Katie, good luck on your upcoming BEC!

@anyatver: How many weeks did you study far?
