I just passed FAR and my Becker ran out last month. I only have REG left and am not sure if I should renew Becker for REG or rely on solely the book and NINJA MC. Any input on this would be helpful

I renewed it…and then didn't touch it. Waste of $200.

I do pretty well with just studying the text though.

Sometimes the app keeps working a bit past the expiration date, so if your test is coming up soon, you might not have to actually renew it.

I'd rather jump off a bridge than fork out another 3 grand! Jk. Hopefully u get an nice discount. Or, u could just use your Becker book and purchase a more affordable Test Bank like Ninja? Goodluck.

@sbarry17 – If you renew any section of Becker, it's half price (as long as you've already purchased that section in the past, obviously).

FAR: July 2016

^ What a Deal!! Is it half off the full retail price – like $1300 per section!? Do they still charge you for shipping and handling? And, taxes?!

You can call Becker for like a one time extension on your access for like 3 months for $200 if you haven't done that before. It used to be they'd give it for free if you sent them proof of your NTS but they've become cheap asses.

And I know many people have said Becker's Reg is lacking, but I found it to be good. Just use all of it and it should help you pass.

I have the book and might try and work through with that and a couple Ninja products. If I feel I need to add Becker I may reach out to find out my options

Whoa whoa everyone. 1) They don't give you a freebie anymore, tried that multiple times, that ship has sailed unfortunately. 2) ChrisLo is correct, you can renew all 4 sections for $300. I had only AUD left (+REG retake) and was annoyed I had used Becker for the other 3 sections and not AUD so I forked it over. If it's a retake, you can def just use NINJA MCQ for $49 to review, but on your first go (and you've been using Becker) I suggest forking the $300. It was worth it to me. I know not everyone feels that way.

BEC - 74, 77
FAR - 72, 71 (retake 7/29)
REG - 69
AUD - Q4 '16

OP, how many times have you sat for REG? What are your scores? Do you like Becker's REG review course?

I renewed my AUD last September for $200 or something. My AUD expired in 2015 and had to retake it. I passed it (again) last December. So it was worth it.

@Amor D – I have not yet sat for REG unfortunately. Had some trouble with other 3 exams. I did use Becker for the previous 3, however recently I have gotten away from watching the lectures and have been focusing on the MC.
