The Gleim program was the answer I’d been looking for to finally conquer the exam. I’ve used other programs before and none of them compared to the step by step process Gleim used, which truly prepared me to conquer all four parts on my first try. I was astounded by how much the timed quizzes and the recommended time per question really strengthened me to finish all my exams in the allotted time and with scores of 83- FAR, 82 – AUD, 75 – REG, and 78 – BEC. The Study planner was essential to keeping me on track considering I was working full time. The Personal Counselors were always encouraging and helpful. Even when I felt despair throughout the process they never stopped believing in me. I will recommend Gleim to all future students and I will use them again for any other designations I choose to pursue. It truly works!

Gleim has been a tremendous supporter and ally in helping me achieve some of my greatest milestones. Due to their excellent products I am now a CIA and CPA. The course prepared me thoroughly for the exam by covering the material so well. The new lecture feature has completely put Gleim head and shoulders above the competition. The lectures are interesting and very helpful. Finally, the personal counselors are very empathetic and helpful during the long journey to the finish line. Using the system just the way it is prescribed I ended up averaging an 87 across all four parts on the CPA exam, passing all on the first attempt. Due to passing the exam I was able to secure an excellent new job as a controller at a large company! Thank you, Gleim, as your products have changed my life!

I can proudly say, with the help of Gleim’s thorough review course materials and multiple choice test bank, I have successfully passed all four sections of the CPA exam on my first attempt in less than ten months! While working for a big 4 public accounting firm, and using the well thought out study plans and easy accessible review material, I was able to work through busy seasons, study with Gleim, and successfully pass the exam! From first hand experience, practicing the multiple choice questions with Gleim will give you enough confidence and knowledge to pass each section. The actual CPA exam itself is less difficult than the Gleim multiple choice questions. That being said, using Gleim will have you well-prepared and conditioned for the exam. Also, I want to applaud Gleim’s staff for their immediate response with emails and phone calls. My final advice for any candidate is to put in the time, understand the material (not just memorize), study with Gleim, and you will become a CPA!

I appreciated the many different ways Gleim let me tackle the information, whether it be reading from the test, video, presentation, audio, and plenty of multiple choice in formats that simulated the exam format or provided immediate feedback. As a spouse and parent working full-time, there were mornings where I had 6 hours and mornings I had 6 minutes. The subunits were broken down to where I felt I was able to accomplish something every day and make progress toward my end goal. It’s affordable AND effective, and I would recommend it to any of my friends looking to pass the exam. My personal counselor was always good about checking in and was quick with an answer to any question I threw at her. I plan on using Gleim for CPE and continuing to work with Gleim.

I think Gleim offers the best value for the money. I really appreciated the amount and variety of questions that the Gleim system provided. It thoroughly prepared me for each and every exam. Being someone that attempted the CPA exam a long time ago with a competitor system, I was very nervous to invest in something else. Gleim proved to me that their system is well worth it. The questions are very similar to the actual test questions. I am forever appreciative of Gleim for helping me succeed in passing the CPA exams. I would absolutely recommend Gleim for any young student or older adult that wants the reassurance that you are prepared to pass. I did!

I don’t think I would have passed the exams without having the Gleim review. I decided to change my career from biology to accounting, so I went back to school part time for a second bachelor’s degree to attain CPA licensure. Being a mom of two young children and working part time, my degree took me five years. During those five years, the exam drastically changed, especially with the inclusion of IFRS, and my training did not include other areas that were beginning to appear on the exam. I took the exams after I graduated and I failed all four sections, mostly within a few points of a passing grade. So, I decided that I needed more training than my college classes had offered and started using Gleim. I was impressed with the ease of program. The scheduling component helped me to stay on track, even with juggling kids and work. The videos contain a wealth of information, including the areas that are heavily tested. The testing components simulate the actual exam, so I was completely comfortable with the exam setup when I took the actual exams. The practice test questions were just like the exam questions, training me on how to weed out unnecessary information and to focus on what information I needed to quickly find the answer. Best of all is that I passed each section the next time I took the exams! Now, I am just waiting for my license to be mailed to me – thanks Gleim!!

I was thoroughly impressed with the content of the study materials and how well it prepared me for the actual CPA examinations! I chose to utilize the Gleim study materials because the cost was so affordable in comparison to other review packages in the market. I am a highly self-motivated individual so the recommended lesson plans for each study unit was an easy way for me to follow through and execute a study plan. I also like that they assign a personal counselor to you to check in periodically. I felt that this helped me to be accountable and that I was not pursuing this alone. In taking all 4 parts I felt totally confident during the exams because I knew the Gleim products had me prepared! As a CPA candidate you have to take the time to master the material and I highly recommend Gleim as a valuable tool do so and become a CPA!

I really want to thank Gleim for helping me pass the CPA in just 4 months and on my first attempt. I sat for FAR and BEC in Feb 2016 and then AUD and REG in May 2016. The review is favorably designed to review quickly and easily. Thanks again Gleim!

I first called Gleim to get some information as I had not fully decided to attempt the exam. After speaking to Debbie she assured me that the access to materials would be available until I passed. The knowledge that I would have access until I passed made me feel more relaxed. After I purchased the material, every time there was an update I had access to the new material. I really liked the lectures they were much easier for me than having to read all of the material. I listened to the audio files while in the car and at my desk at work. The review portion helped me to focus on my weaknesses since you had graphs showing cumulative results of each chapter and sub chapter. It was comforting to have my own personal counselor to keep me on track with my studying. I am so glad that I made the decision to take the jump and purchase Gleim. It was so well developed that it didn’t feel like I was giving up my entire life just to study. So 16 months after my purchase I had passed my exams. If I can do it working full time with a family and many other responsibilities I think anyone can. I hope that anyone scared to take the step will and that they will use the Gleim system to make it easier.

I have the Gleim Review System to thank for passing the CPA Exam on my first attempt. First of all, Gleim is very affordable. Almost everyone I know used a different provider, and when I told them that Gleim cost half as much, they were immediately jealous. Second, the Gleim Review System fit my style of learning very well. I am a visual learner, but I am extremely tired of powerpoints after 5 years of college. So the video lectures worked very well for me because I could watch the professor teach and take notes on the material without simply looking at a powerpoint the whole time. Finally, Gleim’s method of taking a pre-test to diagnose your skill level and then going over the material worked well for me with my hectic schedule. It allowed me to focus more on the areas in which I was weaker. Whenever anyone asks which review software to use to study for the CPA Exam, I immediately recommend Gleim. If it worked so well for me, it can work for anyone. Given the opportunity, I would use Gleim for any other certifications that I may need. Whether that is CPE, or the CMA and CIA, I have full confidence that Gleim would empower me to pass any exam I would have to take.

I got input from faculty members at my graduate program and ultimately chose Gleim because it was so affordable compared to other options and also came highly recommended. I found the online study calendar to be a really effective way to stay on task and not fall behind. The Gleim material was detailed but also very digestible. The material for each exam was divided into twenty subunits, and this helped me not to feel overwhelmed. I felt the Gleim simulations were especially excellent preparation for the real exams. Additionally, the enormous bank of multiple choice questions for each exam were so helpful, and I never felt like I was seeing the same questions over and over again. I received excellent customer service whenever I had questions about the materials or the various updates that are released to keep the information current. My personal counselor through Gleim always responded promptly and made sure my questions were answered. I’ve already recommended Gleim to several friends and will continue to do so. It’s a really effective, to-the-point, affordable review system that gets the job done.

The Gleim review system has effectively helped me to check where I am (my strengths vs my weaknesses) and to figure out what I need to do in order to fix my weaknesses. I can tell you with absolute confidence that Gleim worked best for me. The test bank covers all key concepts which have been frequently tested and also are likely to be tested. I am very interested in using Gleim materials to prepare for the CMA. Given the excellent quality of the Gleim CPA prep materials, I expect that the Gleim CMA prep package will be just as great.
