    Can someone please tell me if the Ninja notes are worth it? I have less than a month to retake Reg and the Becker material is just so much info. I’m looking for something that is straight to the point and written in easy to read terms as opposed to the complicated textbook language and is something manageable to read over and over in under a month. Please would love the input.

    I am taking the exam on Monday (Nov 24th) and wondering if I should buy Ninja notes for BEC this late in the study game. I use CPA excel and WTB and have been doing that but used the notes for my other two exams that I have passed. However I got them way earlier and just read over them randomly.I don't feel very confident with my progess but not sure if 5 days of having the notes will make any difference?? Thoughts…Thanks!

    If I want to supplement my Becker course with Ninja notes, do you think it will be helpful? I only see the 2014 version, if I want to buy the Ninja notes, would that help me? Or do I have to wait for the 2015 version-is there one?

    Please help!!

    How many pages are in the REG ninja notes, the pdf's only? Considering to try them for REG, have been a Gleimer.

    Hey guys…

    I didn't pass FAR first time around so I was thinking of adding Ninja Audio and Ninja Notes to my Becker materials…has anyone use the audio/notes for FAR and would you recommend this? I can't even think of taking FAR for a 3rd time and MUST pass it next time.

    Also, how long do you think I need to study for the re-take? I was planning for last week of November so 7.5-ish weeks…think that is enough or should I wait until January?

    Ok, my question will give away just how new to the whole NINJA thing I am, but when everyone speaks of “rewriting the NINJA notes”, what exactly needs to be “rewritten” and how? I purchased the combo package, but have yet to dig in and start studying for this bear!!!!

    Has anyone else used the Ninja Notes and what are your opinions? Is it worth buying? What does it consist of?

    I personally swear by the Ninja notes especially during my final review. Jeff did an excellent job with them especially if you use the Wiley book. I try to read them each night the week before my test before bed to help the information stick.

    Another good thing about the Ninja notes is that they are updated for 7/1. Wiley hasn't issued any updates for 2011, and Becker is still in the process for at least one exam. I think BEC but I'm not positive.

    FAR 4/1/11 - 89
    AUD 4/15/11 - 85
    REG 4/29/11 - 80
    BEC 5/13/11 - 85

    The Ninja notes are a great way to highlight all the major points you'll need to know for the test. Its very straight to the point, no “fluff”. I read the notes, and know that so long as I understand these things, i've at least got the most important things covered.

    I know this will make my wallet nag at me, but I went ahead and bought the Ninja notes for REG. With FAR and AUD, I was able to create my own notes and just work off of that. With REG, I did the same, but there's a lot more details and memorization involved and I find the material a lot more complex. So, I believe with my notes and Jeff notes combined, I can make my studying a lot easier and more effective. I'll start using them tonight. Go ninja!!

    **BUMP**

    Would you all recommend these NINJA notes in addition to me purchasing the full Yaeger Home Study w/ Listen ‘n Learn Audio Lecture? The audit lectures will just be for my commute and while at work, but I was wondering if you recommend adding on NINJA notes?
