I just bought a whole set of FAR from Gleim. I read most of previous posts about Gleim's online course, but I still don't understand the procedure for online course's study.

1) Should I read the book first and finish Multiple-choice quiz #1 later?
2) What is the function of Audiovisual presentation?

Thanks a lot!

My two cents--

Read the book entirely on your own first, then listen to the Audio Visual presentation (re-emphasis the book contents), then do flash cards and finally do MCQ's. Repeat MCQ's at least twice.

I've used Gleim Online since January.  I got a 67 on FAR on 2/28, but only had a chance to get through all 20 study units once.  I was really unfamiliar with a lot of FAR concepts and needed to read the unit outline first before I did any of the multiple choice and TF questions; I know they recommend taking the first MC before reading.  The video part is very close to the unit outline, I say study one or the other but not both.

Gleim has a lot of information and getting through it takes a while.  I am through all the units for a second time and my scores are way up from the first go-round.  If you are struggling on a unit, I recommend continuing on and going back to it later, some of the concepts are easier to understand after getting through all the material.
