Like anybody else, I am using multiple resources at the same time. Right now I am using a very popular review along side Wiley and came accross one FAR question that is identical to a Wiley one, with a few changes only, but don’t remember seeing anywhere that this review I am using uses Wiley.

BEC: 67 (Q3 2011), 81 (Q4 2012)
FAR: 81 (Q4 2012)
AUD: 82 (Q1 2013)
REG: 78 (Q2 2013)

I am using Roger CPA review and he uses the Wiley book for homework problems and some of the problems in his own book are identical to Wiley.

[Wiley CPA Exam Review]

Some info on this issue:

Becker and Wiley pay a liscensing fee to the AICPA to use actual past exam questions. This is why you will come across questions that are virtually identical in both. Actual questions are a huge benefit to students because there are subtle stylistic nuances in how questions are formulated and leaning to parse phraseology of actual questions helps develop skill at noticing semantic traps. These questions also prepresent the Goldilocks benefit — neither too hard (false discouragement) or too easy (false hope). Correlation on practice sessions with actual test results represents perhaps the single greatest benefit of the Wiley Test Bank. Only some questions are AICPA — others are developed by each review course.

Which reviews use Wiley: officially Roger and Yeager. Others provide our books and Test Bank to their students.
