Hi….looking for reviews on UWorld Roger CPA Review Cram Course. Failed FAR With a 58 using Becker and doing a couple Ninja MCQs (not enough :(). I was thinking about shooting for a FAR retake in December after I tackle REG in November….possible to secure a pass with the cram course and Ninja MCQs?

I got a free REG cram course from Roger that I never really used. Mostly because I didn't have the time or need since I felt fairly confident about REG.

However, I did glance at it and didn't like it it doesn't really seem like a “cram” course because the book was almost as thick as the regular book. The cram lecture videos were probably only a couple of hours shorter than the originals.

I purchased the FAR cram course and it wasn't much different than the regular course. The textbook was almost the same with some topics left out. Videos were the same length.

I was considering this too. For a FAR retake in Q4, instead of going back through Becker.

I used Roger's cram for my third attempt at REG and I thought it was very helpful. I just found out I failed FAR with a 71 and ordered his cram for my retake. I think he does a good job of helping me focus on the basics, whereas I get lost in all the details Wiley provides. He's also as entertaining of an instructor as you can get, which helps me focus better.

@lucy15 how long does it usually take to get through the cram material? I know it depends on the person & their speed, but I am wondering bc if there is a lot of material in the cram, i'd might as well go back through my becker book. But if it is a good cram & covers the main things, I might check it out. I just signed up for the free 2 day trial, but it doesn't let me access the cram

I think I took two weeks to do the REG cram, but I was working full time and also still utilizing Wiley's test bank, so I don't think it needed to take that long.

For FAR I'm planning on 2.5 weeks while throwing in some Ninja Notes and MCQ along the way.

His crams help cement the major topics but they are essentially just a shortened ‘regular' course.

[panic]

@lucy15 do you think I should consider that? If I am trying to retake in a few wks, will I get through the cram? Also, still will use Becker for the MC. Just think it's difficult going through Becker again. But idk.. roger's cram is pretty expensive, and Idk much about it. Glad to hear that you are using that.

@superdude3000 might not be a bad idea if I am trying to get through it quicker

Thanks for the responses. Panic@now I was also looking at the cost of Roger's Cram …. may just go with Becker Final Review as it is half the cost. Has anyone used it ?

[Lucy15]

@panic I haven't gone through the FAR cram yet, only REG, so I don't know exactly how long it would take. I like using them because it can be helpful to have the information presented in a different way, and he can keep my attention unlike the Wiley professors. That being said, I don't think his crams are magical or the only way to pass a retake. It all depends on your learning style, budget, time frame, and overall dedication. Good luck 🙂
