Hi everyone! I started studying in September of 2015 while in college. Between then and the end of 2016 I took FAR, REG and BEC. BEC is the only one I passed and both FAR and REG I was very close to passing. This year my Becker ran out so I bought Wiley. Since buying Wiley I have had my studying delayed maybe 1-2 weeks due to their software being totally down, getting errors non-stop, etc. In 3 months of studying I’m only 65% through the material for FAR and I’m ready to say enough is enough and try to get a refund as it’s not working again. Given that, what would you recommend for a course if I’m trying to get 3 exams done before the end of April during busy season? Do I get Becker again or Sargent or just stick with Wiley? Thanks!

Honestly I only used the ninja 10-point combo which I think is now called the assault package. Sounds like with your prior experience and mix of some other materials you may be able to get buy with one of the lesser packages. Just get thru the material and then really focus on the MCQs and you will likely have some good success.

I agree with cubfan23, why spend a lot of money when you can get a lesser combined package. I hope wiley will refund your money. Good luck to you. Sounds like you're determined to get it done.

I am a huge fan of the NINJA framework. The NINJA MCQ analytics are hard to beat- the information available makes self-analysis so much easier because you can determine your weak spots and focus on those areas so much more efficiently. I also really liked the NINJA lectures and I had very good results with Roger Cram.

What are your thoughts on Surgent? I can get their top course for like $1,400, otherwise I’m going Ninja I think. And yes I can get a refund. I’m so sick of their BS.

Anyone thoughts on Roger? I know they are having a deal on their website right now. I had got Becker from my employer but not sure if I'm actually learning the material. I was thinking of using Roger for his videos and using Becker for its MCQ and TBS.

Part of me wants to just say screw it and buy Becker again. I got so close, I think I could pass with them.

i would second using NINJA. they are excellent.

AUD - 75
BEC - 77
FAR - 78
REG - 82

AUD: 61-67-75 (Thanks ninja aud)
BEC: 77
FAR: 78
REG:69-73-70-82

Aud-75 3x I knew i never liked you
Bec-77 1x being in the bubble is stressful
Reg-82 4x its not me its you...and no we cant be friends
Far-78 1x easiest section

@1skibum I gave Surgent a try and it wasn't for me, it starts with a ton of assessment quizzes and then focuses your review on identified weak areas. I needed a cohesive picture from start to finish, so I went with Roger, which I really like.

FAR - 85 (12/17)
AUD - 80 (1/18)
REG - 83 (6/18)
BEC - 85 (7/18)

Ethics - 95

DONE DONE DONE DONE
