After having been studying for this exam for about a year now and using CPA-Excel as my main study source, I found something that really irks me with CPA Excel.
They label themselves as being the material with “bite-sized lessons” consisting of short chapters … but if you look at it, they have the lengthiest materials out of everyone! Some of their explanations are simply drawn out with much more wording that is required… take for example, the FAR portion consists of 2 books, one having 574 pages, and the other with 527 pages…
… like great, what’s the point of having “bite sized lessons” if you’re just going to have a billion of them?
Other than that, I guess it’s working for me because I am 3/4 through… and their “Never-expiring” policy certainly is very nice…. but it’s just frustrating having to read through all the extensive definitions and explanations when it would be nice if they condensed this like some of their competitors do (Rodgers does a great job at this)… since, you know, not going over time is certainly an important part of passing this exam.
Just thought I would share in case anyone is comparing exam review courses.
