The Exam Questions and Explanations(EQE) software you sent me is great. The questions have actually taught me a lot. In the very first chapter I modified my notes to cover two new topics based on things I learned from your materials. I was skipping nuances that didn't seem very important but it turns out they are on the CPA exam. For example I never gave them questions with a bond discount/premium and accrued interest in the same problem because my text book doesn't cover it.

Thank you for all your support and help. I passed the third part of the EA exam today. Your Gleim materials really do work well and even more important, you made me feel that you cared whether or not I succeeded.

I was exempt from Part 4 as I am a CPA, but took the other three parts this weekend and passed them. I wanted to thank you for the use of the Gleim CIA materials as they were a big help and very representative of the exam contents.

I couldn't have been happier with the Gleim system. The people at Gleim are exceptionally organized and knowledgeable. Gleim really wants you to succeed! Without Gleim there is no way I would have passed both parts of the rigorous CMA examination. Gleim is the elite product on the market. Ensure your success by signing up with the best in the business.

I just used the Gleim site [Professor-Led online community] and I was reminded of what a model of good design it is. On other sites where there are so many options, the students rarely get the same user experience so they do not know what to expect. Neither do I. A simple interface, like the Gleim system, that delivers the material without mind numbing choices for this and that is the way this should be done.

The Gleim CIA Review materials are excellent. Not only do I recommend them to my students, but I used them myself when I studied for the CIA exam. As a result, I was able to pass the CIA exam on the first attempt and received one of the William S. Smith Certificate of Honor Awards. I attribute my exam results to the Gleim CIA Review materials.

I just want to let you know how much I appreciate the Gleim study materials. When I accepted my current teaching position, I was asked to obtain my CPA license. I decided to try using the Gleim study materials to make it happen in 2010. At first, I didn't utilize the study materials according to the Gleim system, and did not pass the first section. So, I went back to the drawing board and decided to follow the system as recommended. I'm happy to say that using the system made all the difference -- I passed all the other 3 sections on the first try! I was even able to retake and pass the first section after only one week of study. Gleim made the difference for me!

I think your material is excellent and I recommend it in my undergraduate and graduate auditing classes as a reasonably priced review for the Exam.

I used Gleim in 1996 and was a Gold Key award winner in Kansas. Not bragging for me, but for Gleim. Your product was the reason I was able to do so well.

I think the students' use of FAME is a timely, superior form of remediation as they prepare to embark upon their journey into Intermediate Accounting. The FAME product is comprehensive and well prepared with students' success clearly in the forethought of the development of the product.

Our students do very well on the CPA exam, and Gleim is a big reason why.

I have been a Gleim fan since I used the 3rd edition of Gleim's CPA Review to study for the November 1978 CPA exam. I passed all 4 parts in one sitting (back then the CPA exam was a 2 1/2 day 19 1/2 hour written test) with scores well above the minimum of 75.

I became a full-time accounting professor in 1983. Since then I have always recommended Gleim's CPA Review materials to my students as dependable and cost effective. I point out that I do not receive a referral fee or any other compensation for my recommendation; it is based on experience. Over the past 26 years, many students have followed my recommendation. I regularly receive messages (nowadays, via email) from former students who have used Gleim materials to study and are now CPAs.

I also routinely use various Gleim Objective Questions and Answers books as supplements in my classes, so the students are already familiar with Gleim materials by the time they are preparing for the exam.

I took and passed the CMA exam in one sitting in 1992. Of course, I used Gleim's CMA Review materials to prepare for that test (which was also still pencil and paper at the time).

I've used Gleim materials in the classroom for several years. They include the Federal Tax EQE and the Auditing & Systems EQE. My students love the challenge they provide. I've used Gleim's CIA exam review materials which helped me pass the CIA exam on the first try. Now, I'm using Gleim materials for the CPA exam review. Gleim makes a superior product and they work hard to keep it up to date which truly helps each student prepare effectively for the license exam of their choice. Follow their course of study, which reviews all of the material required, and it is your best bet to pass the first time.

I first used the Gleim books in the spring of 1990 when I was studying for the May 1990 CPA exam. When I passed the exam just by studying from the Gleim CPA review books, it boosted my confidence and I decided to study for the CMA exam, this time using the Gleim CMA review books. When I passed the CMA exam in December 1990, it made me a firm believer in the value of Gleim products. Ever since I entered academics in 1993, I have been recommending Gleim review books to my accounting students. Many of my students have used the CPA review materials as well as the CMA review materials from Gleim! The best part about the Gleim review materials is that this stuff is relatively inexpensive and updated on timely basis, thus providing a great value. So when you are reading the Gleim materials, you know that you are reading the most up-to-date information. Keep up the good work, Gleim team!

I have been a professor at Emory & Henry College since 1992 and used Gleim to pass the CPA exam in 1994. Thank you very much for providing materials for our students. I encourage all of my students to purchase the Gleim study materials and to sit for the CPA exam. Many Emory & Henry College alums have used the Gleim CPA Review materials and speak highly of your products.
Dr. Denise Stanley, Emory & Henry College

Over 15 years of teaching, I have encouraged my students to use your excellent products. I have spoken from experience, as I attribute my being able to pass the CPA on my first try not just to my excellent professor, but to the Gleim materials he urged us to use for supplementary problems. I have always been impressed by the timeliness and clarity of your study material.

Over the years, Drury's relationship with Gleim has resulted in a high, first-time pass rate on the CPA exam. I'm sure that this year will be no different.

I use it [EQE Financial Accounting text] quite a bit and strongly urge my students to buy it as well. I especially like the explanations that indicate why a particular answer is not correct. So many study guides only identify why the correct answer was the right choice. In my opinion, understanding the details of a topic or concept often hinges on knowing why the incorrect choices were the wrong choice. I also feel that the topic summaries provided in the Gleim book are helpful to students in that they provide explanations that are often different than those in their text, enhancing the likelihood that they will be able to connect with the material.

Thank you for your support and assistance.

I have used Gleim's FAME in both introductory accounting courses as well as in the intermediate level course. Students reacted very favorably to the product. The visuals are very good. The software helped reinforce the concepts taught in the course and served as an excellent review. I recommend this as a supplement for any basic or intermediate level accounting course.
