I utilized Gleim and the Gleim Test Prep CD rom and passed Part 1 last month.  I am taking Part 2 this Tuesday studying with the same method.  I definitely recommend Gleim.

Alcohen-

Did you take Gleim Online or book with your test prep CD. I just bought the test Prep CD and book- is that enough or shall I get the Online Option as well.

I used Gleim for the Special Enrollment Examination
(SEE). The online option allows you to access PDF of each
study-unit from the book; it also provides an
audio/visual lecture, T/F questions, and two sets of MCQs
[these MCQs are drawn from the same database of questions
from the test prep CD].

The online option provides structure for those who do not
normally study very well on their own for large tests. On
the first section of the SEE, I purchased everything; for
the final two parts, I used just the book and test prep
CD and also passed the tests on the first attempt.

I thought Gleim provided a demo of the online portion of
the study packages. You might want to see if it is
available. FYI, I plan on using Gleim books and test prep
CD for the CIA exam.

Ah thank you thank you.

I just bought the CD and the book. I'll add on the material as I go on. I hear the IIA Model Exam Question book is really good too...so I'll get that, too.

Would you by chance know if I can use the same CD on multiple computers or do I have to download the software on one and that's it. I want to study from both work and home which is why I ask. I don't mind carrying the CD with me back and forth.

Have an excellent weekend!
