This really is a great product and I found both the volume and nature of the multiple choice questions to be outstanding. Before buying this book, I labored through the Becker course without good results. I take much of the blame for early failure, but this book cuts right to the chase. The Becker course has a lot of bells and whistles, but really, just get this book and work through the thousands of practice questions. It will never expire (unlike the Becker materials) and this book contains all of the same (exact same) questions as Becker's materials. Money well spent. Good luck to all, it is such a relief to be done!
Thousands of Practice Questions and Simulations
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
This book contains thousands of multiple choice questions and quite a few simulations. I am using it in addition to a Becker review course. It has some of the same questions as the Becker material (probably 30 percent), but there are many questions not included in Becker, and some of them have a very different focus and style. I think this makes the book worth the $60 price, just to fill in the gaps. If you are not using a review course, the Wiley reviews are also recommended, individually or in the four volume set.
great for college classes too

I am not preparing for the exam yet, this book was recommended for help with my college class so I bought it. There are a lot of problems with solutions so it's great for practice.
ad hoc to Volume 1

This is a compliment as Volume 1. You must thoroughly practise the exam questions before you go for the exam. Prior task for going to the exam is to practise the questions..!
