Yaeger CPA Review worth it?

    I have taken both FAR and REG in the Jan/Feb timeframe and got scores of 70 and 72 using the BISK CPA review course.  It seems that everyone here suggests using the Yaeger review course and I was wondering what the benefits are to BISK?  Currently, I found myself watching the videos, taking notes, reading the book, taking notes, doing questions, and again taking notes.  However, I do feel I am more of a visual person and tend to absorb a bit more from the videos.  That said, I had the following questions about Yaeger:

    1) are the videos alone from the homestudy course sufficient or is it necessary to read the Wiley book in addition?

    2) are the questions provided in an electronic format or book format?

    3) Is an investment in the homestudy course too much as I didnt bomb these tests? 

    Thanks in advance!

    Yaeger gives you the biggest bang for the buck.  Yaeger uses the best book, Wiley, which is included in Yaeger's course.  You will also get Wiley's Exam Review Software on a CD with the Yaeger program.   Additionally, Yaeger goes over hundreds of multiple choice questions.  

    Yaeger has been a beacon of light for me.  I tried teaching myself FAR with Gleim and an old version of Becker.  I did everything wrong and I wasted a year!  I ended up with a 68 in FAR.  I wish that I had known about Yaeger a year earlier.  I could have saved myself a lot of grief!
