    And ****, the Becker mcqs are way more difficult than I anticipated. I hope my study experience is similar to BEC, where the actual exam questions are way easier than the Becker questions.

    I also felt so (that the exam was way easier) than Becker's mcq back in 2017.. But who knows now with all the changes

    I thought the mcqs on the exam were pretty straight forward. The SIMS while not technically difficult were hideously detailed, tedious problems. I think the SIMS are where I lost most of my points.

    @LIFO hoping my BEC exam is easier than Becker's too next monday. I have been scoring in the 60's for some mcq sections during review phase. I honestly think some of BEC ch.2-4 is worst than anything I saw in FAR. Becker can be so over the top it's frustrating to even wanna sit down and do their MCQs haha. When I passed FAR with a 76, the MCQs were definitely more straight forward than Becker's but i got plenty of computations on topics that I was not great with. I thought I failed because of them. Regarding SIMs, at least from my own experience I highly recommend looking at the AICPA sample exam. 3 of my Sims were near identical to the Sample exam sims no doubt another reason why I squeezed by with a pass.

    I allotted six weeks to do FAR with Becker (full-time) and I got so behind trying to do their MCQs that I actually went ahead and did all the lectures and all the skills practice and then went back and did the MCQs. This way I could cover all the material so I could take the mock exams. I was doing MCQs the night before the exam in Unit 10. They are hard. But the exam is pretty hard too. I got 66, 69 and 77 on the mock exams but scored an 84 on the real thing.
