I have failed the REG exam three times and I have until October to pass this section before my credits begin to expire.

I am scoring weaker on the sims but stronger on the M/C and I just purchased Gleim simulation wizard to supplement my Becker sims. The sims I have been seeing on my exams are nothing like what I saw studying with Becker.

Can anyone tell me if the sims on Gleim were helpful or should I consider a different review program.

Any feedback would be appreciated!!

Thanks!

George,
From my own experience I didn't find any review course that has done a good job on the sims. Some ppl on here swear by Becker, but obviously it isn't working for you.
My personal approach to sims is I stopped studying it and just answered as many MCQ as I possible can. On the actual exam I made sure I finish all of the sims. Even if I didn't know I would give it my best guess and if I'm left with some extra time, you should if you're strong on the MCQ, than I searched the database for accuracy of the info I guessed on.
I'm a tax practitioner as I'm an IRS Enrolled Agent before I took the CPA exam and I thought the sims were difficult as hell. Good luck!
