Did anyone else feel eerily confident going into BEC? I’ve passed REG and AUD and have studied a fraction of what I studied for both of those exams with BEC. Like I am cramming BEC haha. I feel I know a lot of the topics already but that makes me nervous. It’s on Friday and I’m just continuously doing MCQs (still working full time) but I’m averaging 90/100% on the practice tests. Anything else I can do to boost before Fri? I passed my last two exams first try but did not feel confident going in.

Planning on retaking reg in three weeks. Got 62 and weaker on all the main section in Q4 2017. I didn’t do well on the time management and sims. Any suggestions? Is it enough time? Need motivation.

So Becker was supposed to charge me $600 to update for unlimited access since my account was due to expire in March. I called them in December to make payment. Now 8months later...they reach out to me saying they only charged $35. I just checked my bank statement and they are right but i don't have $600 sitting around...What do i do? Thoughts?
