Dashboard
Becker CPA Review offers a very clean and easy to navigate interface.
Their mobile app and desktop software are fully integrated and you are able to
study on any device you want anywhere you have an internet connection.

Study Planner
The Becker Study Planner is fully customizable and helps keep you on schedule
as you progress through the material.
I didn't find any issues with changing the dates or customizing the planner
based on a CPA candidates schedule.

Organization
Becker CPA Review is very organized and each content group is now broken
down into modules which make the course much easier to digest then being in
large 3-4 hour chunks.

WWW.ULTIMATECPAEXAMGUIDE.COM

The organization has you follow a step by step process as follows for each
module:
1) Take a pre-assessment
2) Watch the lecture
3) Take a Skills Practice over the content
4) Complete multiple choice questions
More on this process later in the review...

Becker CPA Review Multiple Choice


& Simulations

Adapt2U
The trend in the CPA review course industry is to come up with buzzwords to
market their products in a way that differeniates themselves from other courses.

WWW.ULTIMATECPAEXAMGUIDE.COM
10

Becker CPA Review is no different.


They coined the term "Adapt2U."
Which is supposed to be their form of adaptive learning.
But honestly it's kind of a joke.
It's a pre-assessment that you take prior to each module made up of multiple
choice questions.
If you score really high, their system assumes you "understand" the material and
recommends that you can skip the lecture and so forth.
But the thing is and the AICPA has even said this themselves, multiple choice
are not a good gauge of your understanding.
So take their Adapt2U system with a grain of salt.

Quality of CPA Exam Questions


Now the important question to ask is do the CPA exam questions offered teach
you the blueprints and actually prepare you for the real thing.
Becker offers several thousand multiple choice and simulations which is more
than enough to use to pass the CPA exam.
I also found that their question explanations were some of the best in the
business, which is important if you are someone who learns well from answering
questions and teaching yourself from the answers.
In terms of simulations they offer something that I haven't seen anyone else in
the industry offer and that is what's called "Skills Practice."
As you are probably well aware, the AICPA is focusing on testing CPA candidates
based on higher learning skills instead of just the basic memorizing and
understanding skills that multiple choice test you on.
To compensate for this each module contains a simulation that also includes a
lecture to walk you through how to answer a simulation for that specific topic.
I also found that the questions line up well with the specific AICPA blueprint that
is discussed in the module.

11

Mock Exams
Becker CPA Review also provides you with Mock Exams to prep you for exam
day.
As you know the CPA exam is dynamic based on how you perform per testlet so
it's difficult for CPA review courses to predict how your experience will be.
I believe Becker does a decent job of re-creating the CPA exam experience
which is good practice for you.
It's great that they give you this tool to use to also practice on your time
management.
So use them knowing that the CPA exam will likely be different then what you
see on the Mock Exam but that it's not really the point.
It's more about getting you comfortable with time management and
understanding how the exam actually works and functions.

Becker CPA Review Video Lectures

WWW.ULTIMATECPAEXAMGUIDE.COM
12

Becker CPA Review utilizes multiple lecturers to cover the material.


Each lecturer is an expert in the field that they are discussing.
Some instructors are more entertaining and energetic than others.
It's difficult to making CPA exam topics interesting and if you are a fan of corny
jokes then you will probably be able to tolerate most of the instructors.
Compared to Wiley CPAexcel, Yaeger CPA Review and Roger CPA Review,
Becker CPA Review's lecture are on the longer side.
I found that they typically range in the 40-60 minute range, most other courses
focus on getting close to the 15-20 minute mark.
So depending on your ability to focus for long periods of time and how
important video lectures are to your study personality, then I would give each
course a try to get a taste for the instructor teaching style works best for you.
In terms of functionality, the Becker lectures are the classic watch the lecture
and highlight as you go.
The video + text are automatically synced up which is nice so that you don't
have to manually figure out where you are in the text.
You can also speed up the lecture speed and use closed captions.
You are also able to leave digital notes and annotations
Personaly Story:
Now it's important to note that if you are like me and more of a self-studier with
a short attention span, these lectures are counter productive.
I found that I would watch the lectures and not really retain anything and then
have to go back into the text to re-teach myself the material.
So essentially I was doubling the time I was spending studying.
So just be aware that because Becker tells you to watch a lecture that you don't
have too if it's not the most efficient way for you to study.
What worked for me was to start in the text and the questions, then use lectures
as a reference for topics I couldn't figure out on my own.

WWW.ULTIMATECPAEXAMGUIDE.COM
13

This is why understanding your study personality is crucial to your success.

Live Lectures
Becker CPA Review is one of the only CPA Review Courses to offer a live lecture
format.
Typically this involves an accounting expert being in a lecture hall location
where you go and watch the lecture and have an opportunity to ask questions.
Personally I prefer to self-study but if you are someone with a study personality
that thrives in a classroom setting then it may be something to consider.
Personally the commute time + questionable quality of the accounting expert
doesn't seem worth it to me.

Becker CPA Review Flashcards

Becker CPA Review offers both physical and digital flashcards.


When I was studying for the CPA exam the Becker CPA flashcards were a staple
of my study and review time.
I liked how organized and focused they were and absolutely helped me grasp
topics in question.
Unfortunately now that Simulations are 50% of your score flashcards really only
help you with the lower level skills.
So while very useful for memorizing they won't necessarily be effective in
helping in your analyzing and evaluation skills.

Becker Pass Promise

My biggest contention with Becker CPA Review comes from their Pass Promise
which might be surprising, but here's why.
When you enroll in Becker CPA Review they do give you 18 months of software
access from your first login or 24 months from the date of purchase, whichever
occurs first.
This is a decent amount of time.
Personally it took me 24 months to pass so it became a major issue when my
Becker software expired.
Now enter the Becker Pass Promise.
I had failed several sections during the 1st software access phase so I did qualify
for the Becker Promise.
But here's the thing.
In order to qualify you have to watch 100% of the skills practice and get 90% of
the multiple choice questions correct.
Here's the problem.
I was studying only to get questions right and it distracted me from actually
trying to understand WHY a question was right or wrong.

WWW.ULTIMATECPAEXAMGUIDE.COM
16

Now back then the software access was only 12 months long so it was a much
larger issue, but something to keep in mind if you are in a situation where you
feel you need to qualify for the Becker Pass Promise.
What I wish was that instead of nickle and diming CPA candidates + causing
them to study the wrong way that a company like Becker would just give you
unlimited access until you pass.
Especially considering that their course is VERY premiumly priced if you are
paying out of pocket.
Just my two cents.

of:

However getting a response on the weekends is very rare which is when most of
your questions will come up.

Becker CPA Review Pricing


Becker CPA Review typically goes for $3,393 for their full Becker CPA Review
Self-Study bundle.
This includes access to their live instruction classes if you are near a location
where it is offered.
Now from time to time Becker has been running special discounts to non-firm
sponsored CPA candidates.
Check out the latest discounts here
But honestly without a discount it's tough to recommend Becker CPA Review
when you have courses like CPAexcel, Yaeger and Roger CPA Review that are
nearly half the price and offer essential the same resources.
Obviously try the Becker CPA Review demo first and compare to these other
choices before making your final choice.

Who Should Use Becker CPA Review?


Becker CPA Review should work for the majority of CPA candidates.
You can tailor the course to be used regardless of your study personality.
The differences really are how much are you willing to spend on a CPA review
course.
If your firm is sponsoring you to invest in Becker then I say go for it.

would say make absolutely sure you have compared Becker to the other courses
to ensure it's right for you.
