My View on the Pros And ConsFeb 13, 2012
By Stephanie Ng
"IPassTheCPAExam,com"
Hello, I run a CPA exam prep site and I would like to share my thoughts on the pros and cons of this latest edition of Wiley CPA exam book for BEC.
WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT FROM THIS BOOK
The first 4 chapters (~26 pages) cover an overview of the CPA exam, what you should expect as a candidate, how grading is done as well as tips on how to score on the exam.
Chapter 5 covers the BEC materials in 8 modules. Each module has about 15-40 pages of study material, followed by MC questions and written communication exercise with sample answer.
Appendices A to C include BEC sample examination and actual questions released by AICPA.
PROS
1. Well-Written. The book is generally well organized covering all the hottest topics on BEC, including business structure, financial modeling and management, as well as the (most feared) IT and cost accounting.
2. Great Value-For-Money. This is one of the most affordable CPA review materials you can find anywhere. The book is also updated on an annual basis -- no wonder it is the best-selling CPA review books on Amazon (by the way, get this here instead of bookstore or Wiley's website -- cheaper here)
3. Competitors Are Using Wiley As Supplements. A few CPA exam review courses such as Roger CPA Review and Yaeger CPA Review use Wiley's books and CDs to complement their lectures. In fact, Yaeger's DVD course spend a lot of time going through Wiley's MC questions as a way to clarify the accounting concepts.
CONS
1. It May Over-Prepare You. While I have to say this Wiley book for BEC, with 432 pages, is the shortest among the 4 parts, it is still too comprehensive, and thus can be overwhelming when you have to go through the entire book by yourself. Other study guides or lecture notes are more concise and present only the materials you need to know for the CPA exam.
2. Layout Not User Friendly. Since you may be buying the book without physically flipping through it, I think it will be helpful to describe the overall feel and layout of the book. Well, despite the colorful cover, the book is actually printed in thin newspaper print. The questions and answers are often straddle between pages so it is very annoying to flip back and forth to read the answers. It might not sound like a big deal, but many readers of my site have joined in the complaints in this particular aspect.
3. Not An Integrated Approach. If you like this Wiley CPA review book, I strongly encourage you to get the Wiley CPA Exam Review 2012 Test Bank 1 Year Access, Business Environments and Concepts for the practice questions in computerized format. However, the Wiley book + software combo is still far from the "guided review course" with lectures and a channel for you to ask a question or clarify a concept. In my opinion, the guided reviews, be it a live class or a self-study DVD, is a more integrated and thus better approach.
CONCLUSION
Many candidates manage to pass the CPA exam with Wiley product alone, so it is a good set of review guides. What you need to do now is to determine whether you are disciplined enough to study without a guided review course, that you have the time and energy to read through the entire book, and that you won't be bothered by the condensed layout and format. Best of luck to your exam!
