    Hey there-
    Was just hoping to reach out and see how everyone else was studying for this exam? Which software(s) are you using, Becker? Wiley? Ninja only? Etc. What is working, what is not and what is worth the $$$??

    Thanks!

    I had Wiley CPA and Ninja MCQ. Wiley gave me the general idea of all topics in FAR, and Ninja MCQ helped me to connect the dots. I did all mcqs for every chapter in Wiley before moving on to Ninja MCQ thou, so I might have overstudied. I am a very bad gambler so shooting for the 75 is not for me.

    Re-doing Gleim right now. Reading a topic, then doing MCQ on that topic, rinse and repeat. After doing that, I will switch to Ninja MCQ and bang through that until I hit the review mode. Hoping for better luck this go round.

    REG - 55 (2/16) 69 (5/16) Retake(8/16)
    BEC - 71(5/16) Retake (9/16)
    FAR - (8/16)

    I had access to the website. English is not my first language, so the book was not very helpful. What was really helpful for me was the professor from KPMG. I cant remember her name, but she was god sent. I also liked the lectures from Peter Olintos, I peeked on my friend's Becker lectures, but the price for Becker is obnoxious. Let me ask you, do you think you are a visual learner or a hardcore reader? You gotta sit back and think carefully which product to purchase or else you going to hate on the product, on the exam and eventually on life.

    P.S. Unfortunately, Wiley videos for REG were not as good as for FAR; Therefore, for consistency purposes, I wish I had purchased Roger CPA.
