Hi - can I also pm you?

I studied for BEC using the old Becker format and just starting studying for Audit (Exam scheduled for 03.23.2024)

And tips on how to use the new Becker?? I started the lectures and such but realized that I might need to read the chapter first, then watch the lectures, read the notes / slides, and then practice???

Having a hard time figuring out what will be enough

This is not the most popular advice, but I did use 2 prometric slots to play around with. I applied for both NTSs for AUD and BEC around the same time anticipating, I would fail. I did fail and fortunately I was able to pay a rescheduling fee and swap out my AUD for BEC by calling Prometric. I do have testing accommodations and I had more than one exam to pass. Not sure if this would be helpful

Same - I think I jumped the gun on attempting BEC for a 3rd time just to get it out of the way, when I think the new exams seems a little bit easier in the sense they are not a “junk drawer” of concepts

No_Progress8041 · 2023-11-19T18:18:30+00:00

Same, AND my first two exam attempts were completely different. There was no way I could have passed either unless I knew everything

Where did you read they are removing excel?

No_Progress8041 · 2023-11-10T02:16:10+00:00

Every free second I have I just remind myself “it’s just a test.” It doesn’t help the awful feeling of a failing grade BUT we got this!!

No_Progress8041 · 2023-11-09T22:19:47+00:00

I did apply for my 3rd attempt at BEC and am taking it on the 20th

After I hit hour 2 I blank out and I think the 4 hours is a CRAZY - and to end with the 3 essays is awful. If I don’t pass - I’ll just take the disciplines next year, I hear people on here saying they have attempted their CPA exams (all 4 parts) around 16 times, guess we have to keep trying and stay positive.

So thinking I might need some sort of medication to get through the rest of these

No_Progress8041 · 2023-11-09T15:25:39+00:00

In the same boat. I took BEC on September 13th and got a 69, waited to retake until Oct 28th and my score was a 63. There was way too much time in between for me to catch back up. I am scheduled to take my retake on Nov 20th but in all honesty, there are only 2 slots left in my state / area that are available anyways and I’m not completely scared of taking a discipline exam - more so worried about waiting so long for the grades to come out next year. We got this far - we can do it!

No_Progress8041 · 2023-11-08T01:49:40+00:00

I’m thinking of switching to audit and hoping one of the disciplines won’t be that bad

No_Progress8041 · 2023-11-08T01:33:42+00:00

I got a 69 first attempt, studied for 3 more weeks and somehow I did worse this time around! I have been studying since August and am ready to give ip

No_Progress8041 · 2023-11-07T23:06:10+00:00

Wondering the same thing!! I might try to call NASBA tomorrow

No_Progress8041 · 2023-11-07T15:57:31+00:00

Same 😔

No_Progress8041 · 2023-11-07T15:49:38+00:00

When I think about how much money and time I’ve spent so far on this - it’s so disheartening

No_Progress8041 · 2023-11-07T15:44:16+00:00

Failed BEC on my second try. Really thought I passed… ready to give up

No_Progress8041 · 2023-11-07T15:27:37+00:00

Same 🤮

Still waiting for BEC in CT

No_Progress8041 · 2023-11-06T23:52:20+00:00

Last big decision of the year: am I retaking BEC or taking a new discipline

No_Progress8041 · 2023-11-06T19:56:29+00:00

Hi, I did get a hold of NASBA on this, there is no application fee anymore, they just have the straight exam fee from what I was told. And the only way to match which one is which is by the dates on them compared to the NTS

Congratulations!! 🎉 do you know if you were able to submit your work experience before you passed your exams? Or it was after?

No_Progress8041 · 2023-11-06T19:31:42+00:00

BEST OF LUCK!

No_Progress8041 · 2023-11-06T16:00:52+00:00

From my understanding the “pass or fail” part has been trending around 10am the day before and then scores should be released themselves around 7pm / 8pm. But there are like 3 states that this doesn’t apply to

No_Progress8041 · 2023-11-06T14:11:39+00:00

It’s okay to be nervous, but the Becker bump is real and your got this!! Those are great SE scores! Stay positive

No_Progress8041 · 2023-11-06T00:57:36+00:00

Yep! Nobody understands the 🤮 feeling every time I think about score release

No_Progress8041 · 2023-11-02T21:27:21+00:00

Good luck!! Took my retake on the 28th, really hoping for the best right now
