    Has anyone found all the required lecture videos on FAR on youtube? I found one for the first chapter but I was wondering if I can rely on other videos to watch all of FAR lectures on youtube and then do the WTB and rewrite my notes as my preparation.

    Thanks.

    I've only found older ones, and then you're risking learning outdated information.

    AUD 84 (1/9/14-Wiley books/TB + free materials)
    FAR 83 (5/21/14-the above + NINJA 10 Pt Combo Lite)
    REG 84 (7/9/14-Wiley books/TB + NINJA Audio/FC/Notes)
    BEC 76 (10/5/14-Wiley books/TB + NINJA Audio/FC)

    They can still be helpful if it's for stuff that hasn't changed. But then it's extra work figuring out if they changed it or not.

    I just remember using some videos for AUD and thinking how great they were, only to later figure out that bit of material had been totally revamped. So I wasted my time memorizing old material.

    I used Youtube for help on understanding certain topics for FAR. For instance bond amortization, which doesn't change, I needed someone to walk me through it.

    I agree with Dmars- there are some really great youtube videos that helped me to understand topics like capitalization of interest costs, FIFO, LIFO and moving average method.

    AUD: PASSED [81]; Expired, retaking August 23rd
    BEC: PASSED [83]; Expired, retaking July 11th
    REG: PASSED [83]
    FAR: FAILED [64]; Retaking May 23rd
