I took my exam a few days ago and thought I did
relatively well on the 1st testlet, but then had (what I
thought was) an easier 2nd testlet....yet my last testlet
was probably a little bit harder, even though I still
didn't find it that hard. Maybe it wasn't so hard for me
because it was about 80% theory questions and only 20%
computational? I'm not sure...but even for many of the
questions that I wasn't sure about, I came home and
checked the answers and most were correct. Has anyone had
this experience and still passed? I had a good feeling
when I left the exam but now I"m kind worried cuz the 2nd
testlet is supposed to be harder. I also believe I did
fairly well on the writing part. But the last time I took
this exam I had wayyyy more computational questions.

Any ideas or similar experiences?

I took BEC last week and let me tell you...I felt like I was taking AUD again. You probably know what I'm talking about here. Comparing to my BEC experiene from two years ago(lost credit) I would say they are making this exam more complicated than it's supposed to be. The test was horrible and I almost ran out of time. Now the waiting game is on.

I know what u mean bella. My last experience (before this time) with BEC I remember getting a lot of audit questions. I ended up getting a 67 on that one. This time I didn't get as much, except for internal control. I completely agree that the exam is harder than we think it is. I remember panicking a lot before the exam but for some reason this time around it was easier than before, but maybe that's cuz I prepared with wiley.

Rana, good luck to you and all of us!
I wouldn't call that exam hard, but the questions were weird, wordy and some of them were downright idiotic....(must have been pretest)!
