Hi Lucy, I went the cheap rout and bought Wiley CPA exam review volumes 1 and 2 (2009-2010 version) for $64 (including shipping). I passed BEC with that combo first try and I would recommend it as I didn't have to use any supplemental material. Overall I felt like they covered everything and allowed me to pass without going over any of the questions. Basically my test was the first time I saw any questions, so it was my real and practice exam. Gleim has also been recommended a lot on these forums mainly because people said they have a huge selection of multiple choice questions and have free practice exams.
I want to know your method, did you practice lots of questions? Did you read or memorize? How long did you study? Using Wiley I memorized all the modules (I know some people frown on those who memorize but I am a big believer in the subconscious). As I said before I did not practice much multiple choice questions.
Anyways hope this helps and don't get discouraged, you know the material all you need now is a strategy to beat BEC.

Thankyou so much for the reply.
Yes i did practiced a lot of questions from becker.
and studied around 6-7 hrs every day.
I just wanted to ask you that there is only one book for
Wiley business on amazon and not vol1 1 & vol 2.
I just want to be sure that i'm buying the right stuff.

Hey Lucy!
I'm sorry you didn't pass last window :/ Have you tried Yaeger HS for BEC? I really liked it and used it along with the Gleim Test Prep Software to pass with an 85. If you need an help or have any questions please e-mail me at anexa85@gmail.com. I agree with CPAFearful about Wiley as a great review text. I am also interested in the study methods you used last time.
Thanks! tcpa85
