Has there always been a big difference in questions on the Real exam vs Wiley?

    A lot of A71 members say that a regular review course such as Becker, Roger, or Yaeger plus the Wiley Test Bank would be enough to pass. However, the MCQ’s and Sims on the real FAR exam are not very similar to the Wiley Test Bank or Wiley book in my opinion. The Wiley questions seem easier.

    So, has there always been a large difference from the questions on the real exam compared to the Wiley questions or do the Wiley questions seem easier because those are the questions we practiced with and are used to seeing?

    Wiley gets their questions from the same place many of the other providers get theirs: the AICPA

    I always found the Wiley questions to be harder than the actual exam, so on exam day — it didn't seem that bad.

    I find myself prepared for the real exam by pounding on Wiley Test Bank practice exams. After 25 times, I'm ready.

    Like 25 full exams of 90 MCQ's and 7 Sims? or without the 7 Sims?

    The AUD exam I took yesterday had literally a dozen or so questions almost verbatim out of the Wiley test bank.

    I was in utter disbelief at my good fortune… Huge confidence booster and hopefully it was enough for me to pass.

    I use Becker but I supplement with Wiley Test Bank I bought off here. On this particular exam, Wiley was alot closer to what the questions looked like than Becker was….
