Hi Guys

I am preparing for BEC and planning to write by the end of April. I need your suggestion/help.

I'm refering Becker 2008 material only, just wondering should I refer any other book, like wiley's etc. I have covered everthing from Becker and still have some time. So which book you will recommand me for further practice questions and specially for which area.

Please recommand your experience and experties.

Thanks

i think becker is more than enough for business but if you want to practice more questions i highly recommend gleim test prep cd.I used  gleim test prep cd because i didn't have becker mcqs. In my exam lots of questions were from gleim. Just do past cpa questions from gleim and leave publishers questions. I used gleim test prep cds for all the 4 parts.

I agree...Gleim has questions from all different types of exams (CIA, CFA, CMA, etc) to give you a variety.  If you can answer 70% of Gleim questions you will have no problem passing any part of CPA exam!

Good luck!

In my opinion, Becker is highly sufficient for BEC. Don't even bother to buy any other materials. Just try to solve a max of MCQ.

The only thing, I would add to Becker for BEC is this collection of Youtube videos for Variances.

Good luck.
