Well, I used Becker's 2011 material. To my surprise, a
lot of material was no covered!
I got about 10 MC that I had no idea what the question is
about. They are definitely not topic in Becker 2011.
Maybe I should of used becker's 2012.
Other than those, the rest are all fair game, but they
ask you in the weirdest way possible. I am so used to
becker's passmaster MC's wording, it took me a while to
figure out what they are asking.
3 WCs, 2 of them are easy. One of them is on something I
know nothing about, I just BSed and BSed. (just kept
writing without really saying anything useful -.-)
Also, the test is 3 hrs. I thought it's 3:30!! Managed to
finish in time thou.

Oh, and my 1st testlet was really easy. The 2nd one was so
freaking hard, the 3rd one is kind of a medium between
these two.
The 2nd testlet is packed with all kinds of calculations.
Some of them involve some very weird formula that I could
not recall.

Hi jl0329, I'm taking BEC tomorrow and now you got me panicking about all those materials that Becker does not cover!!
If you read this in time to answer, how many times did you go over Becker 2011 multiple choice questions and what was your average score on those? Did you use their flashcards too? Did you use any supplemental questions like Wiley?
Thanks and GOOD LUCK!!! :)

@timetojoin2010
I went through the MC about twice (once with 2011, once
with 2012; I got both versions of MC). My average scores
on those for the first time ranges from 20%-90% depend on
the topic. 2nd run through is about 80% on average.
The MC on the test is not harder than Becker's per se,
it's just they are worded in a very strange way. Some of
the answers are very weird and confusing. I feel like I
know what they are asking and I know the material, but
it's still hard to pick from the choices.
For material, I only used Beckers. No flash cards or
Wiley.
Seems this is your last test! GOOD LUCK! I am off to
study FAR !

I just got back from BEC. And let me just say that it was
terrible. I guessed on so many MCQs because i had no idea
what they were asking. I studied so hard with Becker and
the test didnt even touch on 20% of what i studied.
Questions were weird and caught me off guard, i got alot of
calculation problems especially in the 1st testlet. But
whatever, i wont be surprised if i failed honestly. Lets
just say that when i retake it, i definitely will not use
beckers to prepare for it.
