    So I have passed 3 out of 4 exams on the first try. My last one I need to take is REG. Barely failed with a 72 and a bogus score report which reflected I knew my content (stronger & comparable). 🙁 I used Becker alone for all of them and that was all I needed. I felt I knew the content pretty well, but you never know what you’re going to get the second time. Since I have done all the MCQ in Becker, and the sims in Becker were not even close to comparable on the exam, I think I need something to supplement Becker for the second try. Keep in mind, I studied ALOT, took religious notes, and did ALL of the MCQ and Sims!

    I have looked at Wiley test bank and the 10 point combo. Can anyone advise on the worth (financially) of the 10 point combo? I think I would be good with just extra questions and sims, but it couldn’t hurt to have the additional notes and audio. The problem is, with the cost of school, ethics, retake, and 10-point combo – that adds up to a lot. Not sure if its worth it to bite the bullet with the 10-point or if Wiley would be sufficient.

    B: 75
    A: 95
    R: 90
    F: 80

    The 10 point combo gave me 16 extra points on my Reg retake. If you don't buy the 10 point combo and don't pass again, you will be paying additional exam fees which are close to the cost of the 10 point combo anyway.

    BEC - 84 (4/13/2013)
    REG - 82 (10/17/2013)
    AUD - 85 (12/5/2013)
    FAR - 75 (10/11/2014)

    Thanks! I bought it! I am listening to the audio on my commute to/from work and rewrite the notes. I found a lot of the questions in Wiley are the same in Becker, but I like the way Wiley is set up better. However, how did it help you on the sims? That is what I am really trying to nail down since I got good “scores” on everything else.
