I wanted to say that the exam was NOT easy and was challenging, especially the tricks and turns they use in it. I thought the Becker material was Overkill, but I assume they want you ready for anything. I think some of the questions may be unfair to an avg candidate because I am well versed in Finance (work in field), and I knew several answers (even though maybe test questions) to questions I know 100% were not in Becker. Some of the questions were very str8 fwd and only needed simple computation. I think if you can nail down cold a few subjects like IT and economics you can get through. I was terrified of B5 and Becker made it so hard. It was a lot different on exam. All I would do in addition and be honest with yourself if you knew the material as well as you think. BEC is not a natural subject for accountants like the other 3 are, so it can give you a lot of trouble. I truly wish everyone better success round 2 or 3 and would say make sure to beat the material to death, know everything, know it well or even better then well. You have to really be over prepared for the exam to get through these in my opinion. I spent well over 100hrs on BEC and the last 5 days before exam spending 10hrs a day at it. This doesn't work for everyone, but if you think scores are luck you are wrong, there are several 50/50 questions on the exam, but you need to put in effort like never before to make it through. Good Luck, ask me any questions if anyone wants, I would be happy to discuss exam in general terms.
