I did not like Kaplan at all. I study with a old Becker book 2007 and with Gleim MCQ 2009. In my opinion, Becker prepares you well for BEC. However, for IT you should study from another book too... good luck!

After I found a few major errors in the first chapter of the Kaplan book, i decided i didn't want to deal with that. They had some information on parntership liability and limited partnerships that contradicted both Wiley and Gleim. The IT section looked good though. I will probably work those multiple choice questions a couple times before i take the exam.
AccountingNerd8--->What errors did you find? Let me know and also the page numbers.

On pg 117, F.2. "A limited partner, under the RULPA, has the authority to participate in management and control of the business." No they don't!!
I only read the first chapter. There's probably not many errors in the rest of the book; I just like the way Wiley is set up better. (And the book is smaller) I'm sure you will do fine! Even if there are a few errors, its not going to cause you to fail the exam.
