    So I am getting ready to study for REG, hopefully my last section, and Yaeger says to start with taxation but wiley has the book starting with business law. Just curious if anybody has any recommendations on which section to start with, and if so why do you think that order is best?

    I would focus on business law first. I'm studying for REG now and taking it next week. This may not be great advice but I believe tax is more important so I would probably study it closer to your test date. Also just make sure you allocate enough time to study tax. There is a lot of information on tax (finding this out now with 1 week left), however it seems like most of the basic information should have been covered in your tax accounting class in college.

    @jkpoker1 thanks for the advice that makes sense to study the more heavily tested section closer to test time, good luck next week!

    I also went with Blaw first. One because I am better at it and figured I would retain the information longer. Also it is less heavily weighted than tax per say. Also, I used it to build confidence in my ability (especially important on my third try) to pass REG.
