    Will Becker’s passmaster questions (BEC) prepare me well for the exam? I felt like with BEC, the material is all over the place. Unlike FAR and AUD, I know what material to focus on.

    Anyone help is appreciated.

    I feel like Becker does a good job preparing candidates for the BEC part of the exam. I assume that you have the book to supplement the Passmaster. I took BEC last November using Becker. I worked ALL of the homework questions-twice, completed Becker's Final Review book twice(including HW questions), completed the two final exams and simulations and memorized formulas and mneumonics until I thought I was dying. I managed to make a 68. Not great but considering I have been out of college 23 years, I wasn't too down. I am sitting form BEC again next Saturday, April 23. I have pretty much followed the same routine with the updated 2011 Becker materials. Wish me luck!!

    Hey Candothis, good luck to you too. If you don't mind me asking, do you know why you didn't manage to pass BEC? It sounds like you're really prepared for the exam with all that studies.

    BEC is a monster. Yes you are correct in that BEC questions are all over the place. The entire CPA exam is the luck of the draw. So much detail. I feel like the main reason I didn't suceed the first time was due to the fact that I have been out of college so long. For example, some of the cost accounting topics I hadn't seen since 1987 when I had managerial accounting in college. And some of the topics I had never been exposed to before. However, this time around instead of LEARNING the topics, it is an actual review. Things are sticking this time around. Good luck on your exam.
