Hi Guys,
I am trying to decide if I should purchase Gleim or Wiley Review course and supplement it with Ninja. I have been out of school for the past 10 years and work in corporate accounting.
Your inputs will greatly be appreciated.

Highly recommend Gleim if you are someone that can learn from just reading the material then hammering MCQs. Passed both CMA exams first time and took FAR last month and felt adequately prepared. The lectures are bad. If watching lectures and taking notes is your style, I'd look elsewhere.

Test drive them all and figure out what works for your learning style. I used Wiley, but I did not have much success with it. I all but completely ditched it last year (except when I needed a little more explanation) and began using only Ninja, and finally found success. Hammering MCQs was my ticket on 3/4 out of the exams. So the materials you choose should reflect how you will best learn the material. I know Wiley has a 2 week free trial, so I would suggest taking advantage of that.

AUD - 56 - 68 - 61 - 9/8/16
REG - 75
FAR - 7/15/16
BEC - TBD

Wiley CPAexcel and NINJA 10 Point Combo

Thank you!

Have you thought about going Ninja all the way? I found the Ninja books to be more than enough as a primary study source.

@cafeteria_food, I am planning to supplement whichever CPA review I pick with Ninja. I have been out of school for a few years now so I will definitely need a refresher on some basic notions which I don't believe Ninja covers.

Hi Jennifer,
So are you solely using Ninja right now are do you supplement it with Wiley?
