This book assumes that you've already learned all of this material in school, which is rare unless you have been through law school in addition to your accounting education. Each study section (module) ends with a short exam; however, about 30% of the questions test information that is not found in the study sections. Fortunately, the authors mention some of the missing information in the answer explanations.

Also, many of the references to legislation imply that the text has not been updated for several years. For example, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 is mentioned as if it is still pending. Be careful if this is your only study aid for the CPA exam.

Because of the omitted study material, the best strategy with this book is to skip the section exams and simply read all of the answers for the missing information. Then, try the full practice exam at the end of the book for a more accurate measure of your knowledge.

Wiley CPA Exam Review Regulation includes over 1,000 questions and some 40 full-scale simulations in a study guide for any planning to take the CPA exam. The latest coverage for the computerized exam offers all the latest AICPA content requirements in regulation, with comprehensive questions - over 3,800 multiple-choice - accompanying detailed outlines, study guides, and more. A 'must' for any would-be CPA.

So far so good. I used the Wiley CPA Review book for BEC and passed on the first try with a 79. Now I'm using the REG book to study. I also have the Wiley CPA CD which has additional questions from the book. As long as I keep passing on the first try I'll definitely recommend Wiley CPA review material.

I used this book and only this book when preparing for the Regulation portion of the CPA exam and scored an 85. The quantity of multiple choice questions is great.

Not very well formated as will other Willey CPA exam review books which make you loose concentration on major items.
Need to be reviewed again to check accuracy of bullets numbering and sequence
