Gratitude and appreciation to Universal CPA Review. I began my CPA testing journey some years ago, and I’ve been between 3 to 8 points from passing either of the sections. I finally figured out... See more

What made the course great is the videos that go over the MCQ's. Continue doing more MCQ Videos!
Thanks to Universal CPA, I passed all 4 exams on my first attempt. The lectures are perfectly designed for me as a visual learner, which helps me understand the lessons better. Highly recommended!
I just passed REG with a 75, no experience whatsoever. I used Wiley originally, but Wiley was too detailed to grasp the main concepts for someone who has no clue about REG. Universal helped me there tremendously, lessons were fun and easy to follow. After that, I went back to Wiley, practiced MCQs and got additional explanations where needed, but without Universal, I would be soo lost. So thank you Universal, thank you Joey for all the support during my journey, always answering any questions I had!
For me it is the visual, I really enjoy seeing it I just wish there was more practice problems as for me it's hard for me to catch things
The manner in how the material is delivered is top tier as I’m a visual learner. I played only one course after a long day at work and to my surprise the lesson stuck. It’s easy to follow and the delivery pace works for me.
Joey was very hands on and provided a very personal touch, representing Universal CPA Review. He ensured I had full access to all sections of CPA review that I purchased.
Great as a compliment to other courses such as Becker. Love the explanations and organization of the material. They just need to add more substantive MCQ's and more SIMS. On the right track for sure!
I’m so happy that I’ve met Joey via this cpa review course - he’s been extremely helpful with the course material and strategies for taking each section. The notes were also very helpful - easy to understand!
Understanding from presentation is very high. Every slide is a homerun
Today I have received my BEC score. I finally passed it. Alhumdullah. I am finally done with all four sections of the CPA exam. BEC was tough, I took the exam 8 times. I scored twice in a row 74 for BEC and was just so tired. I wanted to pass it before losing my FAR credit. I used becker, I71,I75, and at the end I used universal CPA. I think each has its own unique way of lecturing you. I wish I have known earlier about the universal CPA material. For me, universal CPA material filled in the gap and highlighted some important points that I was not giving attention to. Universal CPA has amazing lectures, MCQ, and SIM. Thanks guys, and good luck everyone!!
Mental Map + SIMS (with step-by-step process for solving MCQ) help to tackle.
Great support system - the guys are always there to help with any questions. The videos are very understandable. The only thing I noticed - there are some grammar mistakes on the studying material that sometimes makes the reading a little complicated :). However, I 100% recommend this review material to anyone.

The Universal CPA makes the material easy to understand. I am a visual learner, so the roadmap they show in the content is beneficial.
Also, they answer my question promptly.

Great program, helps a lot with visual learners and helping to nail down the basic fundamentals. Really helped me improve and start learning the material instead of memorizing. Their bite sized lectures make everything much more enjoyable to learn and watch.

It took me 4 times to pass FAR, I have never struggled with a test or class before so this was an experience for me. I passed AUD with no problem the first try, something just wasn’t clicking with my other study materials for FAR. After the third time I purchased Universal CPA Review and it all came together, the lectures were so much easier to follow and the explications of the questions made all the difference. I decided not to take any chances as I study for REG and have already purchased Universal CPA Review for the REG section.
I failed FAR with only utilizing Becker for about 4 months. I knew I wasn't fully prepared even with hours of studying, the content just wasn't clicking. Immediately after I received my score, I added Universal to my study plan, relying on their content heavily for understanding the concepts and their MCQs. The mental maps and in-depth breakdowns of all of the MCQ helped me grasp most of FAR's concepts to where I can handle almost any problem that I came across on the exam (even leases, bonds, and govt accounting). Anyone who has set for FAR knows the content in this exam is overwhelming because of the vast amount of material that it covers. Joey and Matt's support and unique approach to learning FAR material has definitely pulled me through! I passed within 2 months on my 2nd try!
Really good review courses. Very good quality video class, and a detailed explanation of MCQs. For SIM, it is worth your time to memorize and practice each of it.
I am enjoying the video lectures and the simplification of the information when compared to other prep materials. I like how Universal goes over everything, without creating a large amount of confusion by overwhelming a person with way too much detail. The goal at the end of the day is passing the exam and I feel that with UniversalCPA review that is a highly likely thing for me.
