I use Wiley, and their test bank is good, but I feel some of the explanations are lacking, and dont seem to suffice, in my opinion. They did add a new feature to show weak areas, but that's only for practice exams. I would try and see if they offer a free trial and test them out. Have you tried the Ninja test bank?
One of the big selling points when I bought Wiley was that they claimed to have the biggest test bank out of all programs. But I've learned the hard way that quantity does NOT equal quality. The questions are totally written by multiple different teachers and people within each section.
Guess it depends on what teacher you have. Some do good questions and 3-4 sentence explanations that put it in English. Some do WAY too easy questions and like one-sentence explanations (often just repeating the answer verbatim). And some give questions that are WAY too ridonkulous even for the CPA exam, followed by 3 paragraph rambling incoherent drunken gibberish explanations.
I only sampled Wiley. Recommend you try the sample of Gleim.
I used the Gleim TB for some of my exams (and the EA).
I really liked how they provide explanations as to why the right answer is right, and the wrong answer is wrong. Although sometimes the explanation for the wrong answer is the same as why the right answer is right, sometimes it does show you common mistakes that you MIGHT make to arrive at a wrong answer, which I found helpful.
I also appreciated the 20 chapter breakdowns, with the further subunit breakdown, so you can easily see which areas you are performing poorly in. Not just by chapter 5 for example, but you can see that in all of chapter 5, you are performing poorly in leases, but doing well on the other topics, so you can easily focus on your weak areas.
When I started using Gleim's test bank about 50% through my studying for BEC, I panicked because I was getting so many questions wrong. Turns out, their test bank actually helped me because it asked difficult conceptual questions (and gave detailed answers), which forced you to ultimately understand a concept. In turn, it helped me understand calculations much better Wiley's test bank and lectures. Also, I paid the extra $16 with Gleim's test bank to receive a hard copy of the questions that included an outline for each section. The 1-2 page outlines helped sum up concepts and provided nice mnemonics (those have always helped me quite a bit).
3. Purchased Gliem test bank for newly worded questions. Spend 2 hours skimming and reviewing all highlighted/marked/underlined material in the book, cover to cover. Spend 2 hours taking Gliem practice tests. Repeat.
A caveat to this is that it was over a summer several years back, and I spent about 10 hours per day, 6 days per week, finishing it between graduation and my first day with the firm. I treated it like a full time job. Spending a few hours each day here and there isn't sufficient. Spending too much time can be as detrimental as spending too little time. You'll eventually forget previously covered material if you move too slow. The exam is a mental marathon and an exercise in discipline. Work effort and proper planning is key.

Has anyone using the Gleim CPA Review Reg test bank actually completed 100% of the questions? I find this crazy as it would take around 50 hours just to complete each question one time (and that is if you were zinging through them at a 1 min avg per question).
I have been scoring around 50% to 70% on average after a few hundred MC questions (my tests have been completely random and take all available chapter sections into account). I read someone else post that when comparing vs the Wiley test bank scores are around 10-20% lower. I would concur as I have completed a similar number of questions for Wiley with the same result.
I passed all 4 sections with Gleim, and it was brutal, definitely prepares you. My strategy with multiple choice was to take about 40% of all the questions for each sub-topic with the review function. I liked knowing if I got the answer correct right away, especially when solving math intense problems. However I wouldn't try doing 40% of the multiple choice with FAR, some problems can take 20 minutes just to do the calculations so if you learn the concepts well you can get away with doing a lot less.
That said, NINJA MCQ is not perfect, and I'm not going to pretend like it's the only choice out there. If I wanted to do that, I wouldn't mention my competitors, with whom I have no affiliate relationship or financial interest. If you buy from them, I don't get a commission or anything.
Adaptive Learning in a CPA test bank was a major feature a few years ago. Today, most CPA Review courses have some form of adaptive technology. You can still pass the CPA Exam without it (as people have done for decades), but you could make a case that you're at a disadvantage vs. other CPA candidates using it. It's like buying a new car without cruise control. It will still get you from point A to B, but it's annoying that it's not there (first-world problems, I get it).
When your test bank doesn't use AICPA-Licensed materials, you're at a disadvantage because only AICPA-Licensed courses get critical content updates from the AICPA Examinations Team and can use past CPA Exam questions in their materials (or service).
For Certified Management Accountant (CMA) candidates planning to pass the CMA exam, a review course like Gleim CMA is a must-have. Therefore, many candidates want to know which CMA review will give them the greatest return on their investment to help them pass the exam on their first try.
CMA candidates must investigate this inquiry because the CMA review industry offers a variety of review courses with diverse features and benefits. Furthermore, these courses sometimes target candidates with specific experience and education levels. Therefore, you should take the time to compare courses and find the best fit for you.
Yes, you need a complete CMA course for one very compelling reason. With the full package, you receive access until you pass. And with this guarantee, your materials will automatically update. Therefore, I highly recommend that you ONLY purchase a course that includes this component.
The prices of the Gleim Traditional CMA Review System and Premium System are not so far off. But the Premium course offers more value for its price. As such, I recommend the Premium option over the Traditional option.
Of course, the test bank also contains thousands of multiple-choice questions and hundreds of essays. As a reminder, you also receive access to this test bank as part of the Gleim Premium or Traditional CMA course.
