Summary: WASTE of MONEY!!! Don't buy it!!!
Comment: I purchased this book hoping to get more hints and tips, but I found the information is repetitive and very similar to those tips already discussed in their outlines. I also expected to practice on the software but was very disappointed with the quality and quantity. The quality is ridiculous, they just pdf the tax return and let you type over it, not software like. The format is nothing like the real exam and it only has 2 questions for each section and it can't grade!!!! it just provide you with an answer and you will have to do the grading yourself. And the research section is a joke, again doesn't looks like the real exam and it doesn't perform the search correcly. Waste of money! I really like their outlines, but this one is a rip-off. Save your time and money on something else......

Summary: great help
Comment: It's helpful to the simulation part. But I still recommend exam takers to do as much practice as you can to prepare the exam.

Summary: good book
Comment: this product help the CPA candidate to understand simulation, and its functionality, but the candidate must make more practice before the examination especially in the research section and communication. the other sections in the simulation can be answered (if you are not sure from your answer)from the standard tab in the simulation.
for every candidate please make more practice for the research section from the internet before you attend the examination because if you don't know where the answer is, it could take a long time from your time. So you should memo the standards headlines. goodluck

Summary: How to Master Simulaitons
Comment: I did not find too many useful hints in this book. The information provided can be found in the NASBA website. However, some of the simulation questions were helpful. It was helpful because it provided a detailed explanation. The reason why I purchased the software was to get experience with the research portion of the exam. This CD does not have this option available.
