Guys using CPAExcel i am not feeling like it is helping me retain the concepts, what all would you recommend to use with it?

What concepts are you struggling with? I thought Becker did a good job with COSO, Cost Accounting, and Economics. IT is kind of crap shoot, no matter what study materials you use, you're likely to see something foreign in that are on the exam. I've never used CPA Excel, but I have had success on the times that I have combined Becker with NINJA MCQs. Just keep practicing, things will click at some point.

Go over it again and again it will stick with time. Learn one concept test yourself read it again test again…. You will get to the point when it clicks. BEC sucked.

I read through Wiley Focus Notes once for BEC. They're good for a quick review of a lot of topics in one place…but I don't find them particularly helpful at actually learning the concepts.
