    I have cpaexcel and it came with Wiley test bank and I bought ninja notes. After doing most of REG on cpaexcel and getting subpar scores, I have decided that I will instead study the Wiley Test Bank by writing why each answer is right on the question and why the others are wrong. I feel that I learn better that way and that it will help me pass the exam. In the end I will complement it with NINJA. Can anyone tell me if using Wiley test bank as the base of my study is a bad idea? I simply don’t learn by reading a book, because I get distracted too much.

    I tried doing that for like one day and answered almost everything wrong, however if I read a Chapter summary ahead I am able to score better and understand better. If it works for you then great but if you're scoring less than 60% I would think it's a bad idea.

    I passed FAR using nothing except cpareviewforfree.com. I probably would have made my life a little easier by having a Wiley book, at least, but it CAN be done.

    Read the book, don't read powerpoint, or watch the videos, ready the study material in full then take the questions. I promise you won't be lost.

    FAR - 78*
    AUD - 66, 79
    REG - 73, 76
    BEC - 79
