For those that passed Far, can you please share with me which review course you used?  What was your study method?  I am looking for a review course to study for Far and would appreciate any advice.  Thanks!

I am highly considering Yaeger.  I just wanted to see what else is out there for others that worked.  What is the most effective approach in studying for FAR when using Yaeger?  Since I know you have the experience with what works and what doesn't.

Honestly all the review programs are great. I hear a lot of great things about Becker. I am a self studier and like to teach myself which is why I used WIley.
For FAR, I just used the Wiley 2008 edition, did all the multiple choice questions 2-3 times until I was gettin 80 percent or higher. I never touched the simulations only because I don't think anything you study will be on the test. Plus, if you know the multiple choice questions, you'll know the simulations. I used Wiley for FAR, REG and Audit and passed all three on the first time up so I believe the book is very effective. The key way to study is read the chapter and practice the multiple choice like its your job. If you like getting taught things, I would go with Becker. Hope this helps!

Use Yaeger and take notes.  I have Yaeger, Becker and Bisk Hot Spots.  Yaeger is the best.

I used Wiley for everything and it was fine.
