    My FAR exam is coming in a few days. Just as everyone says, the Becker final exam is really not a confidence booster. I really don’t know what I know or don’t know at this moment and I’m already thinking about what to do if I fail this time. My Becker material will also expire by the time I know my score.

    Anyone knows if the Wiley books alone have enough practice questions? =)

    Yes, you can pass with just the Wiley book but be forewarned….the Wiley book is boring to read through and contains A LOT of fluff. It's highly recommended that your purchase a review course so they can explain things better and remove all the fluff.

    Actually, it's not uncommon to see the exam same question on your exam that you saw in your study materials.

    Many of these companies license their MCQs from the AICPA.

    AUD - 79
    BEC - 80
    FAR - 76
    REG - 92

    I passed BEC with only a Wiley book. I started to use the Wiley book for FAR…I got about 2 days in and realized there was no way I was gonna make it happen with FAR. So I got Becker

    I passed FAR, AUD, and BEC using only the Wiley books (REG is tomorrow!) I would say it is do-able if you are very disciplined and can force yourself through lots of highly detailed material. (I think another factor when considering this study method is how soon after graduating college you take the exams) I would not recommend that most people study this way, but if you want the cheaper way out, it is definitely possible!
