Took REG twice and got 69 both times without studying business law. Best believe I am going to study business law to the death of me

Scored 67 on BEC without touching finance. Sucks to fail for sure, but good to know we are both in striking distance after reviewing our respective areas more thoroughly.

If you scored 69 without studying b law, take the two weeks and study it to pass.

I would like some advice here. I currently work as an HRBP for a large company and have been with this company for over 2 years. The current company culture is not great, and I’ve been looking for outside opportunities.
I was offered a role at a smaller company that just announced it is being acquired by a large company, however they agreed that they will be operating independently.
Would it be incredibly stupid to start a new HR job at a company currently going through an acquisition?
