You should probably save your money
The Good: The most useful feature of this software is that you get instant feedback when you answer a question. If you get it wrong, they tell you so, and, in some cases why. You can then keep trying till you get the right answer, then they give pretty detailed explanations as to why that answer is right. Of course, you can do the same thing on your own with the Wiley books if you don't mind flipping back and forth to the answer pages.

The Bad: Aside from that, the software has no real benefit over the questions in the books. It seems pretty clumsily designed - like somebody just took a database of questions and added a GUI. I don't think it's too much to ask that they add a feature that will allow you to randomize questions from different sections without being in "Exam Mode" (exam mode doesn't give you don't get the helpful little popups I mentioned above). Also, the exam "feedback" is less than helpful; it just lists the questions numbers you got wrong and what your wrong answers were. Great. Now how about giving me a useful little link to the correct answer so I can quickly review, and don't have to go clicking through 40 menus to find the questions I need.

Overall: Probably not worth the money if you have the books. The idea is good, but they need to make it more than just a pretty database.

Very solid product
A great set of practice questions that's comprehensive and complements the Wiley CPA review books. You have to ignore the occasional editing error, but the material is by-and-large solid and it's a great help to have the extra practice. I would use it again (though I passed BEC 1st try, so shouldn't need to).
