I am going to start studying for the BEC exam. Applied for my NTS so once I get that I will set up a test date and setup a study schedule. I am based out of Orlando FL, and was wondering if there is anyone else studying for BEC. And would be interested in study groups. Whether it be in person or via online. Just need some motivation and help through the process. Thanks
