So I have been taking the CPA since January 2010. I have AUD, FAR, and BEC completed, but I have struggled with REG. I have failed the exam 4 times now; 68, 73, 71, 73. I completed 100% of the Gleim online program for each section. This study method worked for FAR and AUD but not so much for BEC and REG. I then used the Yaeger CRAM DVD for BEC and passed but wasn’t as luck with REG. So I need a new game plan. My work has graciously offered to pay for additional study material for me to complete my exam. But I am at a loss on what to use.

I took a learning style quiz that told me the following:

“You learn best when physically engaged in a “hands on” activity. You learn best when you can be physically active in the learning environment. You benefit from instructors who encourage in-class demonstrations, “hands on” student learning experiences, and field work outside the classroom.”

Does anyone have any suggestions for me on what study material I should use?

Thanks and good luck to everyone!

AUD 68,79
FAR 70,78
BEC 67,75
REG 68,73,71,73, 87!

Im using Roger CRAM for REG right now…I like the textook alot, and the lectures are very entertaining because he's a funny guy and he's VERY energetic. The only problem is that he talks really fast, so I have to pay close attention to really catch everything. I dont try to take notes during the lectures because he talks so fast, I just try to listen and get the basic idea of whats going on. Then I can read the textbook later and really make sense of it. There are demos on the website.

@redhairisbetter, Wiley online test bank and re-writing my intense notes bumped my score up 20 points. REG will NOT be the death of you!!!! I used to think the same at one point!

AUD 81 (X4) Previous scores 59, 72, 72
REG 80 (X3) Previous scores 59, 60
FAR 75 (X2) Previous score 67
BEC 79 (X2) Previous score 58

The wiley test bank is pretty good too. The first time I took REG i used Wiley book, Wiley testbank, gleim test bank, and ninja notes. I was really close to passing, so this time I think Roger Cram and lots and lots of practice in the test bank will put me over the edge. For me, practicing the MCQ helps me remember all the little details alot better. I probably get the same questions wrong over and over because I cant remember some small detail like a threshold amount, or an exception to the rule. So hopefully with practice I'll nail all those down.

I used the Wiley book for REG and really worked all of the MCQ's. Then two days before the exam, I took Becker's practice exam. I think I learned more from reading all of the solutions to the questions than I did actually reading the chapters in the Wiley book. This method of study got me a 79. Good luck. You'll get this badboy passed.

REG - 79
BEC - 75
AUD - 84
FAR - 75
Done...Thank you Wiley Books, Wiley Test Bank, and the NINJA Notes

Thanks everyone for the encouragement and advice. I am also considering the Becker final review. Anyone have an opinion on that?

AUD 68,79
FAR 70,78
BEC 67,75
REG 68,73,71,73, 87!

Wiley Online Test Bank! Supplement any review you do with this. I scored better on FAR and REG than I did on BEC because I used this for these sections and not BEC

BEC - 86
AUD - 94
REG - 88
FAR - 89
