    My goal after completing the CFE soon, is to begin my journey for the CPA. I am far removed from school, and researched and decided on CPAExcel for my program of choice. I decided to try to knock out FAR first, but got somewhat psyched out with all of that material to learn; especially being so long out of school. At the risk of sounding defeatist, is it possible to pass this “bear”, without having recent knowledge of all of the various topics? I am never one to quit, and don’t plan to do that in this case; but, the amount of information contained in both books frightened me. 🙂

    Good to know. I purchased the combo on here, with the test bank, notes, and flashcards. Will that give me good SIM practice too? While the whole exam gives me pause, the SIMs really concern me the most.

    I have never really practiced SIMs, just material and MCQs…I may have to though for FAR. NYCaccountant said that the Wiley book has really good SIMs to practice which I may review this weekend.

    I don't have the Wiley book, so that is good to know. This forum is great, with all of the tidbits of knowledge from everyone. Glad I happened upon it!!!
