    NINJA Question –

    Hi, I am new to the forums. Here is my situation. I work full time, and travel to clients. I can listen to anything at my desk with 1 ear bud, sometimes 2. I currently have All the becker materials (lectures, final review, flash cards), and when I try to listen to the lecture (4 hours worth) while working not much seems to stick. Even though I viewed the lecture already, and went to the class.

    I listened to the demo of the exams for the ones that will be coming up, but want to hear more opinions as I paying a lot for becker already.

    BEC: Need to pass, lost creedit.
    FAR: Need to pass. MY MOUNT EVEREST
    Reg: Need to pass, lost creedit.
    AUD:  Need to pass, lost creedit.

    BEC: 75 lost credit, could not pass far 🙁
    AUD: 76 lost credit could not pass far 🙁
    FAR: 74, FML. Next exam 06/14/23
    REG: 75 lost credit could not pass far 🙁

    REG - 82
    AUD: 61-67-75 (Thanks ninja aud)

    I recommend the audio also. I can't comment on the Becker audio lecturte because I do not have it, but I think ANY audio lecture is hard to absorb when you are at your desk working.

    I tried to use the NINJA audio at my desk, but I found I just couldn't follow because I had to concentrate at work…and accounting principals are not something you can just put on in the background and absorb.

    I do find the lectures perfect for when I'm driving in the car.

    FAR - [10/07/2013 --> 66] [07/07/2014 --> 86]
    BEC - [08/31/2014 --> 86]
    AUD - [11/24/2014 --> 88]
    REG - [02/14/2015 --> 92]

    I love the NINJA Audio. I have REG playing on a loop constantly while I'm at work. I can't listen to it with laser focus all the time, but every once in a while I'll get something and it'll stick. The simple trust being a simple child who can only say “no” is the best one so far that's popped in to my head and helped me answer questions.

    My 4 year old has a different opinion of the audio (“MOM. Not AGAIN!”) but heck with him. 😉

    FAR - 79 (11/27/13)
    AUD - 76 (2/1/14)
    REG - 77 (5/30/14)
    BEC - 88 (7/18/14)

    MN Ethics - 100% (3/9/14)

    AND DONE! 8/1/14

    I would recommend the Ninja Audio. I'm taking FAR today and in the midst of studying, I ran across several questions where I said, “Hey, I remember Jeff mentioning that in the audio notes!”

    Using Ninja MCQ, NINJA Notes, Audio, Flashcards and BLITZ, and 2014 Wiley Text

    FAR - (61,63)
    AUD - (68)

    The audio is especially worth it if you drive a lot. I have all he materials but because I commute every day, I haven't removed the NINJA audio disc from my CD player in over a year. Every single time I'm in the car, whether a quick hop to Starbucks or a commute to work… just play it until you get sick of it and can finish Jeff's sentences. Don't stop once u understand everything, and don't shut it off if you aren't focused, just keep playing it ad nauseum.

    If you have an outline of a topic seared into your mind, you can focus on the minutia without losing an understanding of the overall structure.

    A lot of people work full time, but you have to set time aside each evening. I come home at 7PM and study eight to eleven or midnight. I'm fat, and my pants don't fit as well as they used to. When I fly on business, I take an early flight and spend all of Sunday studying. In the car, your best bet is Ninja audio.

    AUD - 75*, 88 done 5/14! (*exp)
    BEC - 74 , 77
    REG - 65 , 76 (10 point combooo!!)

    I love Ninja Audio. I believe it has helped a lot. I am taking my exam tomorrow and I working through the ninja blitz because it is basically the audio but you can see the slides while he is going through it. I think all of his products help. I haven't tried the Ninja MCQ. Hope this helps.

    Zieba you post cracked me up!

    I love the audio! I highly recommend all of Jeff's products. I think of it like it can't make you worse off. Plus his material is reasonably priced so if you can swing it, I say try it out.

    A - 75
    B - 78 God is good.
    F - 77 Answered prayers.
    R - 84! Done!!

    Paperwork sent - waiting for license!!
    Still on a cloud and in shock. Through God, all things will happen.
