To be honest I can't really recall how long it specifically took me to go through the lectures. I'd estimate my total study time was 120 hours? I think I over studied though.
I did the questions all right after the module usually, and spent 2 days before the exam re-working all the problems I had previously missed the first time around.
I did not utilize the Wiley software at all, it is still in the packaging, however from my experience the more problems you can get your hands on, the better.
Take notes while Phil lectures, just write down things you think you aren't likely to remember. Read over your notes every night before you go to bed, it works like a charm!

I passed REG doing only the recommended problems. I took very good notes from the lectures and studied them intensely. That's pretty much all I did. For REG, I did not have time to do the Wiley supplemental problems. I wasn't sure if I passed REG or not because I had The Nightmare on Sim Street version of the exam, but what Phil taught got me through :) Studied a total of about 120 hours over 4 weeks, and I've been out of school a really long time. Their REG program works like a charm.

I did the same as TryingCPA and raised my REG grade f/ a 63 to a 94 (switched review programs f/ Bisk to Yaeger). Phil is the best!

Phil makes my blood boil, but if some of you think he's the best, I'll try to
reconsider....
For REG, he pretty much just reads through the hand out the whole time and
gives a few basic examples here and there.....
The amount of numonics that are in the study guide are overwhelming...
I just play the video at a faster speed. It actually makes Phil a bit more
tolerable.
DISCLAIMER: I did pass FAR on first try with only Yaeger review.

Studying for REG now and its been almost all Phil - this stuff is dry and business law is hell of boring but one more week and I'm done with all lectures. I've done the in class MCQ's and some of the tax MCQ's - but it really helps to truly understand why you get the answer wrong and figure out why the answer is what it is. 4 more weeks and I'll be sitting for this test...I'll do three weeks of review - MCQ's in book and Wiley supplements - hope thats plenty :crossingfingers:
