To be honest, becker actual text may be better, especially if you bought it. I would supplement with the CD or Gliem CD. I honestly think wiley is too hard.

I'm using Wiley now, and I got to say I am struggling with the questions right now.  I keep hitting 50% on them, but my scores are slowly starting to get better.

What are everyone elses scores looking like when you first go over a section two or three times?

 

 

I am also supplementing with Gleim MCQs and have wiley software

I'm using Gleim MCQ's as well and I sadly am still scoring in the 60-70% range.  Running out of time!

How do the Gleim MCQ's compare to Wiley?  What have you been scoring on Gleim?

Thanks in advance.

i havent done wiley but i think gleim resembles becker supp questions pretty well.  in fact, a lot of the actual cpa questions (not publisher written) in gleim are also in the becker supp sections
