I am reading a lot of negative posts about the exam and how hard it was?? Is Becker just not good for this section?? Does anyone think the IT would be better with Yaegar review???

thanks

I felt really good with Becker.  I felt the test was easier than any I have taken yet after 10 days of studying roughly 6 hours a day.

I didn't feel especially confident with the IT section (I use Becker). I had questions on the exam that weren't really mentioned in Becker and didn't have questions on areas that Becker really hammered. I think if you have good reasoning skills then you probably don't need to get a supplement for IT. Make sure you understand the "whys" and not just memorize defintitions. You should be fine.

If you think you are going to have a huge problem with the IT section, maybe you can go to the bookstore and look at Wiley's book and answer some of the questions in there. That may help you see what areas you need to focus on. Plus Wiley is a cheap suppliment compared to some of the others.
