Been out of school for a while. Still Knowing I want to smash this cpa exam. I want to know which study material worked for you? Has anyone tried using NINJA material only for exam purposes only?

I want to knock out FAR first!!

Welcome! I personally used Wiley CPAExcel because right out of college I started working for a firm who would only purchase Wiley unless we committed to attending Becker in-person lectures. Sadly, I did not get a chance to use the material right away due to an insane work schedule, and then I had 2 kids and well… long story short – I did not start my exams until I had been out of school 6 years. HOWEVER, Wiley is super serious about their access until you pass guarantee, and re-opened my access 5 years after the material was purchased!!! I have passed 3 (maybe 4 – waiting on that last score to drop tomorrow!) so far on my first try, and I have taken all 4 exams within 5 months. I have seen plenty of people on here pass using NINJA only, and if I had to purchase the study materials myself, I would have gone NINJA. I think that all the materials out there are very comparable, and the most significant factor is how much time/effort is put into studying, as well as truly comprehending the material. Relevant work experience definitely doesn't hurt either. Wishing you the best of luck! You can do it!
