So…tell me what features you want in your study software to make it as helpful as possible.

What things do you like?

What annoys you?

I think it would be cool to be able to pick any sections and any amount of sections as well as the number of MCQs total to go through. Say you are struggling on two separate chapters and you want to only focus on material for those two chapters for a night, you should be able to choose which sections and an amount of questions you'd want to answer total and be able to work some MCQs that way if that makes sense.

I also think it would be cool to have weighting similar to the exam for questions.

BEC - 78 (8/30/13)
REG - 73 (1/31/14) - 76 (4/7/14)
***GETTING MARRIED 7/19/14***
FAR - after the wedding
AUD - also after the wedding

I haven't used the new version of Wiley, but here's my take on it:

-I hated that I was limited to 200 MCQ and 10 SIMS. If there were 11 SIMS, I could only do 10 and had to setup another session. Then, when I would try to pick up that last SIMS, I would try to narrow it down by “seen fewer than”, but it never seemed to be truly accurate. I never felt confident I was seeing all of the questions because of this 200 and 10 limit.

-The ability to reset and wipe the slate clean would be nice.

-Dealing with Java was a pain (loading issues, font issues). I wished I could have used the TB on other devices.

-The question explanations could use some work. I often found cpareviewforfree explanations to be better and more thorough.

-I wished the functionality mimicked the actual exam better. The AICPA example exam does a better job of mimicking actual exam functions. For example, search functions for research SIMS needs work.

Like everyone said, wiping the slate would be nice. I would like the explanations to be better as well. Maybe reference a page number or something in the book or give a full explanation on the subject.
