Editorial Reviews

Review

"I wanted to just say I bought just the four books by Wiley for each CPA section and took all 4 parts of the exam in May 2009. I studied for about half a year, and I PASSED ALL 4 PARTS ON THE FIRST TRY!!! 95% REG, 88% FAR, 82% AUD, 81% BEC. I am very excited and happy that these books alone helped me pass!"- Gabriela Adriana Mandiuc, Boerne, TX

3.0 out of 5 stars Frequent errors, February 24, 2009
This book is alright and I felt prepared for the exam. However, one complaint, is that just like the eWiley online site, there are numerous mathematical errors. Spelling errors, that's OK, but mathematical errors are not. Wastes time trying to figure out what went wrong. For all of the ones that I figured out what went wrong, it makes me wonder how much information that I spent so much time learning was just a typo.

Example: In computing the Payables Deferral period, one time the denominator said times 360 and one said divided by 360. Big difference. Had to look online at different sites to figure out which one was correct.

Also, a couple times the explanations for getting answers wrong were very vague. Might say something to the effect of "because it is not correct".

I realize that this is cheaper than the Becker program, but that doesn't mean that they should just duct tape some info together. It's still a reasonably expensive book. They need to stop being so lazy and proofread their stuff before publishing.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Review Book, February 8, 2009
By Sarah (St. Louis, MO) - See all my reviews
I studied with Becker the first time I took BEC, and got a 74. The second time around, I was starting to memorize questions and felt I just needed another perspective on the information. The Wiley book was good for this purpose, but I don't know how someone would pass with this book alone. Becker is far superior in terms of organization and focusing on test applicable material. Wiley was much more indepth, which was not necessary.

Also there was some blatantly incorrect information in the book. This surprised me as this is the 2009 edition, and I thought everything would be up to speed. These were not huge items of information, but it did occur more than once.

Overall the book was helpful, and I would recommend it as supplemental material for anyone sitting for the exam.

4.0 out of 5 stars Wouldnt have done it if it wasnt for Wiley, March 30, 2009
By S. Johnson "Squibley" (Massapequa, NY United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Wiley tends to throw in ALL of the information you could possibly be tested on while Becker will hold your hand and teach you tons of little tricks, as well as help you schedule your study time. The Wiley books do include a chapter in the front of the book with a study outline, however I didnt waste my time with it. If you can handle a few obvious typos and are self-motivated enough to hold yourself to a schedule, then you'll make it through Wiley's books just fine. I walked out of FAR about ready to jump in front of a bus, but ended up pulling an 85, almost wetting myself. Put in the time and Wiley will not dissapoint. Any complaints i've heard about Wiley are more than offset by the price.
