Ninja Blitz is by far the most effective Ninja product if used properly. I can swear by this product as it helped achieve the highest points in Reg which was by far the hardest section for me, since I had no previous taxation background academically and professionally.
This is how I used Ninja for my final two sections and scored my personal bests (82 AUD & 83 REG) on the actual CPA exam. The method might vary from person to person and I am only sharing my personal experience. Since my study approach was consistent with both the exams, I am sharing only one scenario as it occured.
I always schedule my exams in the afternoon. Two reasons for doings so, first and foremost you don't have to worry about the traffic and second it gives you some time to do the final revision. There are people who stop studying at least a day before the exam, but I believe the CPA exam is all about recalling the right information at the right time during the exam. So cramming during the final hours before the exam makes sense, at least to me it does.
On a side note, since this is the final week before the exams, by this time I am done with the Ninja book at least two times, Ninja Audio countless times and counting plus the Mcqs at least two times. I start my Blitz round 1 at the beginning of the final week. By the time I reach exam day, I had done two rounds of complete Blitz. I left for the prometric center like I usually would for work, not allowing my body to feel strange by changing my routine and getting there at least 3 hours earlier. During my drive, I listened to Ninja Audio in no particular order. I brought my laptop with me to the center to watch the final round of Blitz. As soon as I came in, I checked in and let them know what time I would be back. I went back to the lobby and started watching the Blitz from the beginning. As soon as I finished all the videos which took me approximately 2.5 hours, i went straight in and told the administrator of the center that I would like to begin now. The first thing I do after hitting the start button, I write all the mnemonics from the Blitz into the working paper given to me by the Prometric staff. It sounds daunting but it only takes a couple of minutes and would save you a lot more during the exam. During my REG exam, I followed the same practice and found one of the TBS to be solvable verbatim through one of the Blitz mnemonics and I just could not believe it. In that moment, I said to myself either I am screwed or this is a home run. To this day, I am confident that solving that TBS through the Blitz mnemonic is a major contributing factor towards my all time high score.
I dedicate this long post to the Ninja Blitz and its creator Mr. Jeff.
