    Becker Question –

    I have been working the hws and getting between high 50s and low 70s. I am pressed for time so I do not think I will be able to go back and re work all of these again. I have been writing down notes though and hopefully will do good when it comes to the test.

    My plan is to really memorize majority of the jes and how they work and look through the govt/nfp stuff.

    My question is have any of you passed far with those percentage on the homeworks 🙂

    Cheers!

    I think it might be tough if you don't go back and redo them. People usually say (and I agree), the best way to study is to murder as many MCQs as you can over and over. I personally like to study until I pretty much have all the questions memorized. Although I'm lucky enough to have a house to myself and very little work at the moment.

    Of course anything is possible and studying is different for everyone. It's good that you are taking notes. I would at least try to run through the ones you got wrong one more time after studying your notes.

    REG: 85
    AUD: 74, 85
    FAR: 74 (sigh)
    BEC: 80 (don't even ask me how)

    When I say C-P you say 'Ayyyyy show me the money'

    @palal, that sounds like exactly what I am doing. I am averaging about the same % and will only have time to go through them once. I'd rather do new questions than repeat the same ones (I left the supplemental questions for review). In my opinion the % doesn't matter, it's more about learning something from each question. There is so much material with FAR I really think you will be fine if you just get through it all and do a good review. I've never taken it though so maybe somebody else can answer better.

    B - 85 (5/31/11)
    A - 93 (7/1/11)
    R - 87 (7/29/11)
    F - 77 (8/31/11)

    @palal, I would also suggest to you that the % you are scoring on Becker is not highly indicative of how you will do on the exam. Many people here say (and I agree 110%) that the Becker MCQ are more difficult than what you'll see on the exam. When I took far I found this to be immediately true.

    You definitely should try to go back through SOME of them, though. Any areas where you're really weak will likely be the ones that pop up to greet you time and time again on your exam–that's just the kind of luck we exam takers seem to have.

    FAR 07/27/11 - 87
    AUD 10/01/11 - 85
    BEC 11/15/11 - 87
    REG 01/03/12 - 92
