Guys, does everyone think the lecture CDs are essential as opposed to just reading the material?

I need a teacher that shows me how to work the multiple choice questions.

Depending which prep you're using. I'd say with Becker, lectures are trash, reading book is more important than any Becker lectures - live or cd. But it's just me.

In my opinion I would say in either case you must read the book the lectures alone are not enough, but they will help you ,specially when you want to cover something for the first time, to understand faster those areas which you might struggle with. The lecturer will give you real world examples for those hard to understand topics which might ease a little the studying process.

Would you say that you are better off reading the book, going over the passmaster questions twice or reading the book, listening to the lectures, and going over the passmaster questions once?

Based on a tight schedule, which of the options above is more ideal to score higher on the exam.
