I never felt that bored or dragging myself to finish one topic in BEC. This subject is so dry and boring.

I need your advice in how to prepare myself for BEC? I have 2011 becker material . is that more then enough?

Any suggestion would be appreciated.

Becker 2011 is enough to pass. The BEC lectures were pure torture for me, so I skipped them. When I took the lectures out of the equation, I loved studying for BEC. All the Cost stuff is like a puzzle that is screaming to be put together, I enjoyed it a lot, even the variances. The thing about BEC is that people spend so much time going HAM on formulas and all these complex examples and tend to forget to understand the underlying concepts as well. Don't let that happen to you. Know the formulas, but don't neglect the theory, specially IT and COSO. Trust Becker, that's why you spent big money on it.

P.S. when all else fails, take a Napuela, not just a nap 😉

@Nam, it's the best feeling ever. You'll get there before you know it. If you need more advice, shoot me an email (it's in my profile) and I'd be glad to help. And don't worry, I'll still be on A71… lurking around and annoying people! lol

P.S. when I say I skipped the lectures, don't take this advice to heart. I have sort of an odd way of learning. Some people swear by the lectures, and that's great for them. I was the same way in College, never paid attention in class. Most of the time I was texting, Tweeting, or drawing a cartoon of my professors. I would go to my dorm after class and read the textbook and teach myself the lesson of the day… show up for tests, and get As. If you feel the lectures help you, by all means watch them all and take notes!
