    NINJA Question –

    If so, have you found this was sufficient? (i.e…. did you pass? 🙂 )

    It would be nice to be able to have one study material / test prep to use, so i was curious as to what the review is of using NINJA exclusively. I tried searching through the forums but mainly found posts that seemed to aim at NINJA being used as a supplement to another study material.

    I'm about to find out. I've used nothing but Ninja Notes/Audio/MCQ* to prep for FAR on 7/2. I'm feeling good about my chances.

    *In the interest of full disclosure, I did get the 10-point combo, but haven't really used the other parts. I probably would have used the FAR book more if I needed more background on a particular topic. I'll probably end up using the book for REG.

    I used only Ninja MCQ and audio for FAR. I found it to be sufficient. The only section I had to repeat was AUD, and that was because of my study habits, not the material.

    Wow @ajones19, thats impressive!

    So for FAR you didn't need to crack open a book at all… just used NINJA MCQ & Audio? And in what order did you take your tests?

    For questions that I was having trouble with, I would print out the explanation at the bottom of the screen and review that later. It was basically the same explanation as what was in the book I had. For the last 2 or 3 weeks, I listened to the audio on my drive to work every morning. I did have the ninja notes and video for FAR, but I barely touched those either. I think I watched two of the videos, and I read about half way through the notes.

    I took them in this order: B-A-R-F.

    Good luck with your exams!

    When I took AUD I started watching the Yaeger videos, but I didn't even make it halfway through them, so FAR and effectively for AUD I used only NINJA.

    I get the most out of repetition and actually working through problems so out of the 10 point combo I've primarily relied on the MCQ's and the flashcards with the audio and NINJA notes being helpful. I've watched a few of the blitzes and have found them helpful when I'm really struggling with a concept, but haven't watched most of them.

    AUD- 95
    FAR- 75
    BEC- 83
    REG- 85

    Officially done! Exclusively used NINJA for BEC, REG, and FAR

    @ajones19 – thats great to hear. Thanks!

    @silvercamaro77 – I feel I'm the same.. I learn the best through repetition so unless I'm really struggling in a certain area I probably won't need video/lecture. Glad to hear that the NINJA has worked well for you so far- good luck with the rest of your studies!
