I am planning on studying full-time (8-9 hours) for the next 14 days to pass BEC.

So far I have spent way too much time on IT portion of BEC and feel like I have a good hang of it.

Next, I am moving on to Cost, then Economics, then COSO..the rest comes after…

For the ones who have taken the exam already, what do you think I should be focusing on mostly in order to make sure I pass?..since I only have 14 days left Thank you guys/gals!

I did an intensive 3 week prep for BEC and was able to clear it on the first go. But I also have a good grip on Costing & Financial management part, and familiarity with IT from Auditing exam. So it really depends on your previous knowledge of the topics.If you are already familiar with most of the topics, then it is very doable. Also to answer to your second question, BEC exam can throw questions at you from all directions. It is preferable to be thorough in all the topics. To know COSO & ERM in and out also really helps. Also be sure of all your formulas in costing & FM.

FAR : 71, 83
AUD : 73,88
BEC : 87
REG : sweet 82 and DONE !!

Thanks for asking @needhelpnow

I'm very curious to see the responses to these questions because I'm the same boat with only a few weeks to study for BEC.

A - 2/2/15 - 76: PASSED
B - 7/20/15 - 74, 73
R - 7/24/15 - patiently waiting for 8/25 score release
F - sometime in October

I passed BEC with only 13 days of study. It's totally do-able. You just have to dedicate yourself to study whenever you are not working or sleeping. I would say I put in around 5 hours of good solid study per day for those 13 days.

I passed BEC as well, studying 4 hours each day for 15 weeks after work, and 8 hours during weekend.

BEC - PASS (79)
AUD - PASS (63, 71, 74, 74, 83)
REG - PASS (88)
FAR - PASS (58, 89)

Becker for all + FAR 10 Point Combo

Out or curiosity what happened 5 months ago and again 2 months ago when you asked about 2 weeks of studying F/T for BEC? Did you take it yet? Seems odd to keep posing the same question.

FAR- 77
AUD -49, 71, 84
REG -56,75!
BEC -75

didn't pass the part before this as planned..so revisited that and coming back to this now

[mla1169]

So doesn't that lead you to believe you should give yourself more time? I think BEC can be done in 2 weeks but if you've tried it before and it didn't work out, try a different approach.

FAR- 77
