    Looking to see what combination of materials you REG passers used?

    I have becker atm but clearly it did not help me pass. I then used Wiley TB the second time around and barely jumped form 60 -> 61. Not cool.

    I would be most grateful for any words of wisdom and for which combination of materials you all used to kill REG. I am very much hoping this 3rd time will be the charm and not just another 1 point increase……

    What is the best way to retain REG in your experience?

    Thx all as always! =]

    Ninja Audio! I didn't think I would ever pass REG. I used Wiley, Yeager, Gleim, Roger… you name it. I used everything but Becker and I ended up with multiple 73's after a low of 61. I added the Ninja Audio as soon as Jeff released it and BOOM! 84!!! I actually sent Jeff a text message as I was leaving the testing center to thank him, even though I couldn't tell him why I was thanking him.

    I used Gleim the first time and I didn't study enough. The second time, I was very nervous and I used Gleim again but I supplemented with the NINJA audios and flashcards. I found the audios very helpful because Jeff explained the business law (one of my sticking points) really well and in a down-to-earth way.

    Good luck!

    Scoring in the 90s in any reputable test bank (including CPAforFree website questions). Expect your actual score in the Exam to be 75… and above, if you can consistently get 90s in practice.

    CISA - Smashed 2012
    CIA - Passed 2015
