    I am using it and I like it. I am not liking one thing about it though. Lets say for example you do a testlet of 20 questions in practice mode. You answer the first one and you get it wrong. Then you get that box that says try again or next question. You obviously are going to try again until you get it right. By the time you are done doing all 20 and trying again on each one you get wrong it gives you a final score of 100%. I am not too crazy about that as it doesn't gage my real performance. I know you could pick next question instead of try again but then it doesn't tell you what the correct answer is any why. Am I missing something?

    That's odd. With the Gleim test prep, if you get it wrong the first time, it will count as wrong on your Score Report even though you try again and pick the correct answer afterwards. You need to get all questions right the first time in order to get 100%.

    I took AUD a few weeks ago and since it's my last exam I haven't logged onto Wiley since. I'm hoping I don't need to use this new Wiley after my results next week LOL

    new version sucks balls. I just attempted a practice session only to see a pop up box after every question. hhmmm it takes 2 seconds to clear the box…. I think the older version is better… That's what I am sticking to until it expires…. it hasn't fail me thus far

    I'm not so sure I like the new version either. Maybe I haven't had enough coffee yet, but the reports on my practice tests don't indicate the total time and average time I spent on them.

    BEC: Passed
    AUD: Passed
    REG: Passed
    FAR: Passed

    I am hating that I have to calculate my real score other than it giving me a 100% every time because I get something wrong but then by trying again get it right. That doesn't help!

    I ordered BEC recently and for some reason, it's not available for 2012. But AUD and REG are available and I bought those before I bought BEC. Weird…

    why's it so expensive? $99 per section?

    wasn't 2011 only $39 at one point? is it because 2011 was nearing an end?

    @jeff when do you think the prices for 2012 will go down significantly?

    The 2012 version doesn't even say why you got something wrong. And the pop ups are annoying. Sticking to the 2011 version for BEC.

    It was always $99…a stellar deal considering some courses charge thousands for 4 parts
