Oh, by the way, I am much more discouraged now.
Through my research for other FAR courses to buy, I just come across this sentence from Beckers:
"Please note that the AICPA generally releases questions that it does NOT intend to use again."
That's just great.... 95% of Grubb's teaching is focused on practice questions, but almost all of those questions in the FAR book is from past CPA exams that Grubbs said in the video that it's from the exam release. Since 95% of Grubb's teachings heavily focus on answering the practice exam and minimal lecturing on systematic teaching materials and lack overall comprehensive lectures, I am much more discouraged again to find out those practices are on questions that AICPA does NOT intend to use again....
This really is a waste of time and money!!!!

You sound discourage. I believe based on other posts I have read on the forum, the AICPA questions that Becker is talking are the AICPA released questions that you can get for free on the website. The questions in the review material are past questions from previous exams. Someone once mentioned that the AICPA questions are purged questions. Some people do them for extra practice other people dont bother because they feel its a waste of time. To each his own. So, the questions you have in your material should be from past exams that other candidates have taken in the past and if I am correct the review programs pay a fee to get those questions. Hope your studying is going much better. Maybe you should check out Yaeger review. A lot of people have good things to say about it and its is priced reasonably.
