    Hello all,

    I have come out of my hiatus and pushing along. I have been taking the exam for years; I mean years of no success. The closest I came to passing was a 69 in Audit in 2015. I have been exclusively using Becker over and over and over. I once paid out-of-pocket and the other time my employer foot the bill.

    I have come to the conclusion that Becker is not working for me! Here how I would study with Becker:
    watch the long lectures, circle this, highlight this, solve countless mcqs and some sims. I’m at my wits end with this process.

    I learn best by doing and seeing. Now, I am asking those that have used other review course which one I should go with? I want to be done once and for all with this exam!! And move on with my life!

    Kindly opine! Thank you.

    I'd suggest you take advantage of the trials offered by Gleim, Wiley and Roger.
    Roger's lectures and seeing him solve the problems on the whiteboard, and then repeating the problems on my own with the MCQs and SIMs has worked well for me so far.
    I cant stand to read a book, so the lectures combined with the visual learning fits my learning style the best.

    Agreed with ReckedRacing. Roger works for me as well. But you certainly take the advantage of free trials.

    I agree – do the free trials. I learn best by hammering MCQs. I tend to not read the book or watch videos except for topics that I'm just not getting. If that's how you learn, also, then Ninja or Surgent might be good for you. But definitely test them all to get a feel for how they work before you commit.

    If you live close to Dallas, i would advise doing the live Becker class with Lilliana Hickman Riggs.
