Hi everyone.  I'm attempting to squeeze BEC into the 2nd quarter window and will only have 4 weeks with a fully open schedule to prepare.  I will be using Becker to prepare.  Does this sound realistic, or is this too big a bite?  I'd be interested to hear from those of you who have had experience with this exam.  Thanks.

Make sure u read well for corporate governance, it is heavily tasted. Also check for coso.org for more info.

Congrats on getting through BEC.  That has to feel good.  Thanks for the advice concerning the go ahead and materials reference.  I've got zero obligations other than studies, so i'm hoping I can really cram it in. 

By the way, you didn't happen to use Becker, did you? I've got the course disc (awaiting the lecture disc) and see the list of topics covered and can't seem to find coverage of cost accounting anywhere.  Any clues?
