    I called the Gleim CPA Review company and they told me that they sell the physical book and the online Mega Testbank version.
    Which one should I get? Thanks

    I loved the online version of Gleim, you can use it anywhere – on the computer, ipad, phone. I highly suggest it! For FAR back in June, I mainly focused on multiple choice in Gleim, 2750 questions, plus 50-60 TBS. Ended up getting 85.

    I went with the physical book and the test bank (for all 4).
    The physical books are worth every penny just for the index in the back of the book. When you are stuck on a question or concept, you can easily find the keyword in the index and then look at the specific pages.
    Its not as convenient having access to the book anywhere you go, but chances are you will be studying in 2-3 primary locations.
    I carried my Roger book and Gleim book with me to and from work everyday, just in case I needed quick reference.
    If I were to do it again, I would get the physical book, hands down. I won't lose access to the book in 12 months. I have them all in the corner of my office for quick reference.
    Ask for Debbie when you call, she always gave me a discount. 800-874-5346 ext. 414

    @Recked and others – do you guys recommend the Premium and/or Traditional full Gleim course or just the Mega Test Bank? I have a friend / coworker who is trying to decide between either the Premium or Traditional full courses versus just the Mega Test Bank. I have him talked into Ninja for his review phase, I think, but he feels like he needs a course that is pretty thorough (like I hear Gleim is). Becker is out of his price-range and he tried Wiley and doesn't like the software and feels like it's very glitchy. Any additional details you can share concerning Gleim would be great and/or helpful. Thanks very much!

    I would just get their Mega Test Bank. Worth every single penny and then some more. Their videos are meh and their books are passable. Went 3 for 3 consecutively passes after getting myself slaughter by their test bank.

    Thanks to all of you. @ Recked: is it possible to buy Roger book just for FAR? and what number do I need to call to get that book? what is the exact name of the Roger book for FAR? Thanks.

    I had the $1600-ish Roger package, I think its the most basic one.
    The book is just called FAR Financial Accounting and Reporting 2017 Edition.
    I don't think Roger sells just the book, and I'm not sure it would be worth buying, the real value in Roger's course is the lectures/videos.
    Their website says you can only purchase the stand alone book if you have previously purchased one of the course offerings.
