I didn't think you thought that, lol. I'm surprised they would tell you that in the lecture...but I haven't seen any of the Becker materials so I can't say anything bad about them.

I've probably put in over 150 hours for REG, based on your experience, do you think that's sufficient?

haha I thought you were in Maryland, too. I'm from VA so I guess anytime we see MD we think of Maryland.

As long as you know the tax stuff, I went through a very brutal tax season which I learned it all. Only had to focus on the other parts. I assume you had a tax season, you will be fine.

I was surprised with the becker guy too. Hes like its common sense, use intuition and then they have barely any practice questions. But I am satisfied with Becker so far it has got me through REG. Seems pretty organized.

Good Luck, dont sweat this one.

Man your making me get this book today so I can get those IT questions you are raving about. I am using the Becker and it is light on IT. I cant quote exactly but the guy says to just study the material they present and use your intuition which is why they don't give as much questions.

MD- did you download the Becker updates and IT Technical Addendum? Bunches of stuff there.

I got the Wiley book, am working more questions. I also completed all of the
Yaeger Cram. I am very overwhelmed. This section is so much harder then
Regulation. I really don't have any confidence in passing the exam at this
point. I wish they were all as easy as Regulation. I have tax experience so it
was easier for me. But nothing is sinking in with BEC. Holy moly! I am going
nuts!! I have been studying since end of May and have spent about 30 hours
studying since Sunday alone. I still am weak on variances....ahhh. This just
makes you want to scream.
