Does anyone know of any podcasts or any audio ways to review? I have a lot of driving to do and a CPA exam coming up and thought it would be helpful to study while I drive. I tried listening to my Becker lectures but it wasn’t very helpful since you kind of need to be looking at the page. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Hi Sorry I know this is an old post, do you still recommend Yaeger for audio mp3s and if not what? Do you still have a promo code? Im just kicking off my prep, havent even scheduled my first test yet….

Thanks!

Hi dprofis – Nope – no discount codes

thats too bad, thanks! Any suggestions on good affordable products (Gleim maybe?) ……too that point I ordered something off eBay for AUD , (description pasted below)

Given that its 2010 what’s the risk that there’s old info? It was only $5 and Im in the car 2+ hrs Mon-Fri so I’d really like to use this time

Thanks again!

It appears that Gleim has audio option, but I never used it before. Maybe you can check it out.

NIU Correspondence is completely audio based and I loved it. It may not be what you're looking for if you are looking for cheap alternatives since it is somewhat pricey (Prices range from $475-$755) – although I thought it was worth every penny.

I used Gleim audio cd's for my 1 hr each way commute to work. I was happy with them and they absolutely helped me pass the exams. I bought mine used each time on Ebay. Good Luck !
