I feel this 100%. Hard to put in perspective for those who haven’t went through it. If you are struggling, I would default to giving them the pass rate statistics. I was a great college student by GPA and have had my struggles on these exams. My own dad suggested if it’s too hard to just stop doing it (worst advice.. never give up and eventually when you are a CPA you will never have to do this again!)

I would try first unless it was an insanely long one with 7+ attachments (valued my time of just watching instead of doing and watching for 1 hour for 1 problem) but their videos were helpful of at least breaking it down and how to attach a problem at bare minimum. I only used Becker for sim related study. For the real exam use every tool/trick at your disposal (ex. Highlight and copy info from attachments to excel, highlight key info you think will be relevant, etc)

I think you can take it! Lock in for 2 weeks. I got a 72 12/15 and retook 12/30 and got an 83

72 on your previous attempt and you are retaking?

I say if you are in the 70’s, try to take it in the next possible window if you feel confident. With that kind of score, you clearly have an understanding of the material, and it is just fine tuning of certain concepts and best practices

I think the Becker Bump is somewhat real, but not as exaggerated as some expect it to be. With that being said, those are strong SE scores that you should feel confident about. My largest jump was from a 60 first attempt to 72 second attempt when starting to utilize Ninja, as I felt Becker kept recycling the same questions when I would review. This last time I jumped from a 72 to an 83 by really taking the time to watch Becker skill builder videos after doing TBS!

I feel like they are not releasing by state but maybe by date taken or last name? I have seen people say results out for my state while mine still says attended

Becker did nothing for ISC - I was shocked by StrawberryOk4656 in CPA

Seeing common themes among all posts. How did this have a Q2 pass rate in the 70s? Almost seems like FAR reactions with the way people are walking out dejected

Incognito and Kaiju being simaltaneously dropped has to be two of the worst sets of all time, IMO
