I just failed my REG on Oct and plan to retake on Jan. REG is my last part. I used Becker for other three parts and it is great, but for REG, the MCQ is totally different from the ones in exam, so I am considering using any other materials? Does anyone have some recommends? Is Wiley good for REG? or Gleim?

I got the exact same case as you, passed all three with Becker and now doing REG for second time, I am using Becker and have also purchased Wiley test bank. Its a lot more material to study but there are many qns in Wiley which are not in Becker, but this gives a better understanding of some topics. Also it has 37 simulations, which is good. Wiley is a good recommendation, I dont know about Gliem, havent used it. Good luck studying !!

Would you guys elaborate on what it is you found Becker
lacking in? Topics, etc. I am currently using Becker to
take REG on November 30th.

There was nothing lacking in Becker. I took Becker for all other parts & passed, and found it quite satisfactory. I decided to take on Wiley as I wanted some new practice qns to work on. I had done the MCQs in Becker so many times that I could pick the answer without working the qn. This would work well in business law but not in Tax. Also I got some extra simulations in Wiley, which is good, as I was told I was weaker in the simulations area. I feel that if u are able to grasp concepts well and get the MCQs right with Becker, then u r fine. I got a 73 in REG with Becker. Had I passed I wd have said def stick with Becker. and it doesnt matter in the end which materiall u use, as long as u study it well. Sometimes too much info is overwhelming
