    About to start studying for AUD. Test Bank will be the biggest part of my studying strategy. Hesitant which one to choose.
    – Heard good reviews for Gleim TB, never used it though as its rather pricey.
    – Familiar with Wiley and Ninja. Used both (more Wiley than Ninja) to study for FAR, REG and BEC. Liked the format of Wiley TB ,good explanations, but MCQ seem too easy. Ninja is more difficult but dont like how questions are explained, would not use it as the only TB, only as a supplement.

    Price difference would be around $50 in favor of Wiley and Ninja. But as you can see by my scores they were just barely good for me to pass.
    I hope there are people who used all three TB and can share their opinion. Or at least those who used Gleim TB and felt it prepared them very well.

    @PerAsperaAdAstra (No idea how to link names here)

    Yea I called, but this was for the full program.

    I mean honestly your scores are passing (I didn't notice that before). Unless you've been studying for forever I don't understand why you would want to do anything differently for AUD.

    Gleim/NINJA

    @PerAsperaAdAstra lol I suck at telephone conversations as well. I actually paid full price for the thing and they called me to tell me that my text books would be delayed until Mid-January / February for the 2017 adaptions… I started crying on the phone (yes I am pathetic) and told them that I had just failed FAR for the second time and I didn't need any more text books just the test bank… the guy then asked what prep course I had been using and said they give a discount if I could prove I had failed it and had purchased another course- so I scanned him my failing grades and my receipt from Rogers and they refunded my credit card 10%. Now I don't know whether this is the norm or whether the guy just felt bad for a poor crying person but either way it was the highlight to an otherwise really Sh–Y day.

    And they ask me why I drink

    BEC 71, 82
    AUD 75
    REG 75
    FAR 61, 69, 83

    and they ask me why I drink...

    FAR- 61-next time I'll ask for lube instead of a calculator
    REG-75- Never been so happy to see such a low grade
    BEC- 8/11
    AUD- 9/2

    oh and just noticed @cpamatt‘s reply and completely agree- I turned to gleim because what i was doing was not working… I don't know why you would switch mid-game when what you have been doing seems like it is working. Just get Ninja test bank to supplement.

    @mckan514w and @cpamatt the reason im looking for better test bank is because AUD will be the most challenging exam for me.
    With FAR/REG/BEC I, like many of us here, had some basic knowledge (college classes/some experience) before I started studying while AUD is an unknown territory to me (even though I took one audit class from which I learnt nothing).

    FAR - 80

    REG - 65, 80

    BEC - 79

    AUD - May or July 2017
