    Depends on which tests you are taking. Personally I would recommend Wiley Test Bank for REG & FAR. Becker alone is good enough for BEC and AUD.

    Well i am waiting on the score for REG today, so if i fail i will take your advice and get that for the retake. How many more MCQs does Wiley give you? Are they similar difficulty?

    People often supplement with Wiley MCQs…they're affordable and a good way to hedge your bets by getting the concepts tested from another perspective (plus it supports this site when you buy it) 😉

    Wiley test bank is a good supplement for REG. It helped me understand the concept alot better. Sometimes Becker just mentioned a topic in few sentences without example, Wiley test bank will test you on that topic in more details and hence you learned better that way. I don't know the actual number of questions, but I would say between 1,000 – 1,500? You don't neccessary finish all questions if you don't have time, but it's a very good tool. You can order it from this website for a good discount. I would say the difficulty is comparable or slightly more dieffecult than the actual exams, the hard parts.

    I don't leave home without my cellphone, I don't drive without my seatbelt, and I don't take a CPA exam part without using Wiley.

    I passed Aud and Bec just using Wiley (I also own CPA Excel, DO NOT LIKE IT–but then again I like the printed study materials instead of the software based tools). I broke down and used CPAExcel for NOTE TAKING on business law and ethics since I was somewhat familiar with those two topics and figured the condensed CPAExcel would be enough. I don't know that it hurt me because my exam was 80% tax overall…my exam did NOT adhere to the outline provided by the AICPA. I used Wiley for the MCQ practice for business law and ethics and both for notes and mcq's on taxation.

    I'll know today, I hope if this worked out or not. I'm really worried, but if I fail it will not be Wiley's fault. I was significantly distracted by multiple giant life events from 2 months before the test to 1 week before the test. The hits just kept on coming. 😀

    Yeah Wiley looks very affordable! Which is amazing considering the price of everything else that has to do with the CPA. I will definitely supplement with Wiley unless by a miracle a passed REG without. It might be just the tool i need to put me over the top.

    Thanks for the input everyone, and Jeff for the Another71.com plug haha. love it
