explained in many of his posts that he did written communications on
both simulations, and did it well. It would be nice that he would
change the signature not to excite false hopes in others.Sorry to put
your hopes down, but I'm interested in your score. I don't think I
passed FAR but would like to have some hope for the couple days until
I get my actual score

70 + 10 = 85 = false hope?

You will do better than you expect on all exams except for bec (if you
were prepared) don't worry

Did you do the research tabs? You seriously left the simulations blank? Didn't even fill them in randomly?

Passfirsttime, please, please, answer the last question :-). I think there are many interested in finding the answer to that question. So, is it true that you nailed MCQs (100%*70 = 70p), WC (100%*10=10p) and those 5 extra-points were just a 'curving' thing. Do you say that you left EVERY tab in those two sims absolutely empthy???

I was able to pass all 4 of the exams without filling in any of the MCQ's or Simulations. The only think I did was login to the exam and wait for the time to run out.

How is this possible?

Shh...it's a secret method that Becker tells its students. That's why the Becker classes cost so much.
