Customer Reviews

This Book Is OK

I bought Wiley 2006 BEC used and it was great. It covered all the major topics and dealt with a few I didn't see in another CPA review text. The great thing about BEC is that the concepts don't change. Therefore, old used books work as well as new current books. My used 2006 copy of Wiley BEC was the best reference I used. I Passed BEC with a high score on the first try.

Helpful

The BEC part of the exam is perhaps the most difficult. Wiley does a great job in helping you better understand the material.

Very Helpful.

This is the third Wiley CPA exam review book I've used. Like the others, this one is laid out nicely and has lots of review questions. The text can get a little dull. I've seen the Becker review books from a friend and those look a little easier to read, but these offer ten times as many questions to review, which is how I studied for the exam. I've only gotten results back from FAR so far, but I passed using the Wiley books in conjunction with the Wiley review questions on CD.

Solid prep book

Thorough and fairly detailed, this prep book contains all the info you need to ace the exam. It's low-graphic but low-cost. I would recommend using with the Wiley CPA prep software for extra practice questions. For the price, you just can't beat it (even if you have to occasionally ignore a spelling or grammatical error).

great and affordable CPA exam review

Wiley is a great, very organized exam review. I can only recommend Wiley, this book in connection with the DVD helped me pass my CPA exam. But you do need to buy the DVD questions to get the most out of it.
