Got a 73 on my first BEC SE! Feeling much better. Plan to review what I got wrong first and then a general refresher before taking SE2 tomorrow. Hopefully I don’t bomb that lol. Actual exam on Monday.

You’re in a good spot! But don’t let off the gas. Keep reviewing through the weekend. Good luck!

Thank you!

81 on second SE! Will continue to push through the weekend but take it light on sunday. Feeling pretty good.

81 on third SE. I’m speaking it into existence that I’m going to pass lol. I wish that google doc with all the scores was more realistic. There’s almost nobody on it that failed when in reality ~40% of the responses should be failed
