 Great Strategies and preparation September 6, 2010
Herbert Quiong (Baldwin, NY, US)
I felt the course material to be overwhelming in content. The lay out is also a bit confusing and sometimes I couldn't follow the topics in a logical order. What I do like about this review book are the summary charts that summarize key concepts, the multiple choice questions and simulations that give detailed answers to questions, and answers why the wrong answers were wrong. The explanations were always concise and to the point, and never confusing. The MCQ/explanations in this review is what makes the series. It also gives insight on the 2011 changes, strategies for taking the exam and other important things.
 Frustrating and convoluted August 17, 2010

Despite the many typos throughout the book, which make me question the degree and care of editing, I found this review material to overly-complicate many of the concepts for the FAR exam. I used a different study program for the first two CPA exams I took and passed both of those exams on my first attempt. I switched to Wiley as my original materials expired and the Wiley book was a cheap alternative. This Wiley CPA FAR review takes concepts that I don't deem to be too complicated and presents them in a disorganized and hard to follow manner. I felt myself becoming more confused on topics that I already had a good grasp on as I read through the book.
For the price, it is a good deal. If you want to concentrate on learning the material rather than deciphering the paragraphs, it is not such a good option. Also, there were many times when I was going through the material that I thought things could have been organized in a much easier fashion. For example, the material seems to present itself like this, "situation 'A' must follow these rules. Situation 'B' must follow these rules. But situation 'A' has these exceptions. Situation 'C' has these exceptions. Also for situation 'B', you need to do this." The confusion is continued when the book incorrectly uses its own acronyms. Bargain purchase options is at one point referred to as a PBO, and out of nowhere they begin using the term RV without defining it to identify residual value.
Great Review Material June 19, 2010
Akeela Woods (Valencia, Trinidad, West Indies)
I purchased both Bisk and Wiley. Wiley is very systematic and well written. I also got the test bank CD and it has a wealth of questions. I would definitely recommend Wiley over Bisk. Whereas Wiley is modules oriented with an organized and understandable approach to studying for and taking the exam, Bisk falls short with run-on sentences galore, and basically a confusing read. I am confident that with careful study of either text, one should be able to past the exam, however, the Wiley software makes an already challenging exam, less stressful to prepare for. Once again, I fully recommend Wiley over Bisk.
Excellent Service June 4, 2010

I am always exceptical from buying things online particularly when it comes to books. Sometimes it does not come the way they describe it but for this one, it came as promised. Excellent service as well. It came even few days ahead on their time estimates.
 Good CPA review book January 20, 2010

This is good/detailed CPA review book. If you're able to set your own study schedule, you can pass the exam using just this and the Wiley CD(wait until the new one is out) with multiple choice questions and simulations. It's cheaper on amazon than on Wiley's site.
