Do I need to buy the extra practice with a challenging exam question from Becker for FAR part ? or I will be fine by regular questions

I would say it depends on where you are scorewise or where you think you'll be near test time. If you're in the 70-80 range, don't worry about the more difficult material which is generally more nuanced. Instead, concentrate on the fundamentals which will be tested by the standard questions. If you've already nailed the core concepts and you are now memorizing minutiae, then sure, the difficult test won't hurt.

The MCQ's are in three testlets.

Easy -> Hard -> Hard = High MCQ score

Easy -> Hard -> Easy = Could go either way depending on performance of last testlet

Easy -> Easy -> Hard = Poor MCQ, still passable with great SIMS

Easy -> Easy -> Easy = You're doomed

FAR - 71, 94
BEC - 91
REG - 51, 88
AUD - 89
