Based on what people are saying, sounds like we had the same sim.  It was brutal, and I know I got it about half right or less.  The only tab I think I did well on was the first one, the other tabs were absolutely horrible.  I knew the topics they covered fairly well, but not how to do the journal entries, so I was screwed.

I knew the material well too for MC questions, but was not expecting the journal entries and the other tab.  My review book definitely did not cover this stuff.

I feel Becker covered the topics, just they didn't focus on the journal entries. Without going back and looking at the book, I know that some of these journal entries were in the book (I don't think they all were, but I could be mistaken), it just wasn't a topic I would focus on.

It really is the luck of the draw, I wouldn't worry with Becker.  In my opinion, they do a very good job of covering the material.  With any review course, you can get stuck with material you didn't focus on.  Stick with what you feel works for you, whether that's Becker or something else.

I took the monster yesterday.  I was able to finish everything (barely), but some of the tabs on the sims were really difficult.  I'm trying to stay positive, but I just don't know if I passed this one.  Ugghhh. 
Plus, I don't know if this happens to anyone else, but by 2 hours and 45 minutes into testing--I get this crazy urge to just scream and run out of the testing center ; )

Does anyone have any idea of a July 15 test date will be considered wave 1?  Ah well, guess I'll prepare for BEC and just wait and see.

July 15 would be Wave 1 unless you received a new sim, which would bump you to Wave 2.  Unfortunately, I think I am going to be riding the boat to Wave 2 even though I had a July 11 test date.
