AUD/FAR passed using only Becker, Need to supplement Beker with Wiley for BEC?

    I have passed FAR with 89 and AUD with 99 using only Becker. I felt that it prepared me really well.

    I have heard that Becker does not do as good as a job with BEC though. For others that have passed BEC using only Becker do you think it is sufficient? My only concern is that I have heard there are many other topics not covered by Becker.

    I suppose my question is are the Wiley questions over the same material as Becker just presented in a different format? If so, I do not think I need Wiley. Conversely, does Wiley actually cover more topics than Becker?

    Thanks for the advice!

    I used only Becker for BEC and I definitely noticed several questions with terms or topics not covered in Becker's material, but the exam was still very passable. For most of the questions that threw me off, I was able to at least narrow the choices down and make an educated guess.

    I've never used any other supplements so I can't speak for whether they would have covered the topics that Becker skipped, but considering your past scores, I don't think you'll have trouble passing using only Becker.

    I am considering buying the Ninja audio notes for FAR, however. I'm sure Becker would suffice, but I'm thinking about mixing it up a little.

    I used only Becker for all 4 parts and feel that it was least helpful for BEC. There were several questions that were never covered in the text or lectures. Since I've taken like 100 exams, I think I learned how to make educated guesses so that must've helped me out

    AUD - 51, 80
    REG - 84
    FAR - 15, 29, 55, 80
    BEC - 65, 72, 69, 76 (expired), 83

    Becker does a fine job for BEC. You always have a chance of taking an exam and not knowing a few questions. If you are confused on topics in BEC then use your old school books. If you don't have those, use the internet! Did we all forget we have everything at our fingertips?

    Viewing from your previous scores you understand what it takes to pass a section. It is not necessarily the material you use, but how you study and making sure you understand why you got a correct or wrong answer.

    BEC (11/17/12): 88
    AUD (1/18/13): 76
    REG (2/27/13): 88
    FAR (4/15/13): 90

    Becker is enough, trust me. I have similar scores to you for FAR and AUD using only Becker. I only used Becker for BEC and scored in the 90s. You'll be fine, buying any more study materials in your situation would just be a waste.
