    Hi all,
    I have a question and don’t know if anyone has the answer. Is it just me, but is Yaeger CPA review course unpopular or is it bad? There must be something wrong or bad experiences with the course. I wanted to get your feedback on it with whoever has taken it. On my research of review courses of what I want to.take, I have it as number 2 on my list because of the guy’s incredible pitch of the AICPA Blueprints books. He hammers on that like crazy. He lives, breathes and sleeps with that. I am surprised there is not a lot of mention on it on the forum. I see no positive nor negative comments and wondering why. What I am for sure doing is that I will supplement whatever course with Ninja MCQ. At this time I have Gleim as 1 and Roger 3. Another question. I know courses have their representative. Who represents Gleim? The only reason I dont have it as a.definite winner for.me to take because I cant find anyone online that sells.me on it for sure hands down. I have it as 1 because of the overall great experiences that this forum has had. Its bloddy hard, sometimes even too much and videos are meh, but it overprepares you sure. Roger’s selling point is obviously Roger himself. Then if I went with Becker which I won’t, is their big popularity and they have a lot.of reps everywhere. Can’t find one for Gleim though. If anyone knows who represents them, that would be great. All i could find is some lecturers and quick 1 to 2 minute videos, but no pitches.

    Hi RaulB – It seems like you're unsettled on a cpa review course, as you've made a few posts about the topic here and there.

    It's a tough decision – a lot of factors.

    You can pass with just about any course – definitely with one of the 7 listed on the table (https://www.another71.com/cpa-review-courses/).

    Pick one and don't look back – and never post about study materials again ~ unless something truly isn't working for you (you're putting in the time, working hard, but still failing).

    I would do each courses' free trial – the one you like and roll with it.

    Realistically, you could pass with any. The secret to the CPA exam is what you put in, not the materials. Find a course that you feel that you could work with every day for the next 3 to 18 months and go with it.
    The great thing is that they all have free trials. Watch a couple videos do a couple MCQs and start studying. Read, take notes, do non stop MCQs repeat and repeat and don't sleep, then do more MCQs then pass the exam.

    Hi Jeff,
    I would like to kindly ask you 1 question. Did you just ask me to never post about study materials again? I didn't understand this part. You don't want me to post this on the forum? If that is the case, I will gladly not post on the subject matter again. Please advise.

    Thanks.

    Sorry – my intent didn't come across the way I intended.

    What I meant was – once you choose … don't second-guess … move forward and study.

    I've seen people spend more time investigating review courses than study – and they've purchased 3 courses…that's all I meant.

    I agree with the responses here. For the record, I think Yaeger is excellent for those who need a complete and thorough presentation of the material. Otherwise, and I don't do this to kiss up or because Jeff pays me, NINJA MCQ and BISK videos are thr minimum exposure to get you through.
