    Thanks for the clarification.

    I finished the lectures and readings woooo. Everything is done, I'm just finishing up R7 Optional Questions. To be honest, they are absolutely embarrassing me and obliterating my confidence. I don't know how anyone enters this test feeling confident. I barely remember any tax at this point and I'm still getting a business law beatdown. I have a lot of work to do in the next 11 days.

    This is how I feel at this point in a nutshell. I can answer basic multiple choice questions on every topic and do so with flying colors. But the second Becker, or the exam, pulls some cowboy move and starts asking questions like in these optional banks then I'm a dead man.

    Hello all,

    I'm starting my quest for REG. I'm wondering if I should purchase Becker REG Final Review. Any suggestions.. Maybe I should just use the Wiley book to supplement.

    Help:)) Thanks in advance

    I finish my Roger lectures tomorrow! Two days off then 8 days of 8-10 hour days of review. 1 day for each chapter, then 2 days of multiple choice nonstop. Ugh, have done about 350 MCQ on Wiley testbank already, so around 900 to go there, then the Wiley book homework. My life is so fun.

    I just started an online Becker course today. Is Feb 28 to soon to schedule? The course is set to end Mar 17, but I can work ahead.I will have about 15 hours per week to study. Working full-time in public accounting and taking care of my family. I have 13 years of tax experience. My other option would be taking the exam in April. I'm usually dead tired by April.

    @Caddygirl7

    I think you should be pretty good if you stick to your schedule. I have a year of tax experience and i do see a little overlay of what i do and what is on the test. That being said dont take the tax area lightly, there are a bunch of things that i dont really see alot at work. just something to note, you might be different.

    Hi Everyone. I'm planning on taking reg on Feb but have been studying from the 2012 Becker material. On the lectures, they say that phase out amounts won't be tested on the exam because these numbers change every year. Does this apply for credits and deductions as well?

    Also, now that the payroll taxes and the income tax bracket is different for FY 2013, given recent news, do we need to take that into consideration as well?

    Can I still use my 2012 becker? This is my last exam and I don't want to spend money on new becker material again.

    Thanks in advance.

    I would imagine you will be fine. Even when you study the released questions becker has not many of them have specific numbers or phaseouts. I would just know that something is maybe phased out.

    Doing REG w/Gleim -They also had a software where I could print all my missed questions and was a great study tool!

    I started with Reg because I like TAX, but I find myself not doing well on this section.

    I think my problem is 1. Im by myself in this- Im better studying with someone else and talking it out. 2.Im wasting time – I read, highlight, study the problems, then do the test, Read the Sims, then do the SIMS. plus I get sidetracked, and I have major changes going on…

    I tried just watching the presentation, but I do worse, and on TAX! my favorite subject.

    Absolutely terrified, and wish I could quit. I dont know how Im going to get through this by myself, and while working now. I signed up in Nov when I wasnt working and thought I could get do the test Jan 2! This book is 800 pages long.. I just want to get 1 section passed…the first time! IS ANYONE IN DC??
