Testimonial
BTW, I sat for my Auditing Section last week. I felt very well prepared for the
test. Gary did a great job in teaching the course and gave some wonderful test
taking tips (which came in handy during the test).
I wanted to thank you for your great course. After taking BEC 5 times with another review course (Roger Phillip) I decided to give yours a shot. I passed, finally, with an 81!
Thank you,
-Christina Michelmore
Just got my results for AUD.....87! That's a 27 point improvement with Yaeger (scored a 60 with Becker). Thanks again.

Dear Yaeger team,
I wanted to thank the Yaeger team for helping me pass four sections of the CPA exams - all of them in first try. I researched all the companies who offer DVD review courses, but I could not afford to pay for any these courses. Then in 2008 I found out about Yaeger Home Study DVDs with such an affordable price!! I was so excited and purchased it right away. I used Yaeger Homestudy DVD packages and Audio mp3s for all 4 sections.
I just wanted to say to Phil Yaeger, that what you and your team did was above and beyond my expectations. Your lectures, study guide, must-do-questions, and especially your jokes really got me through this journey. I'd have gotten into too much details of the textbook and
lost a track again if I didn't have your help. Audio mp3 really helped me review what we covered in DVD's as well.
I made a right choice by choosing Yaeger in the first place. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

I am writing to you to say thank you. I made a promise to myself that I would write this email to you once I passed the CPA exam. Well, I did and I am SOOOO glad.
I purchased the Yaeger Homestudy DVDs after
I failed FAR THREE times using Becker. After the 3rd time, I knew Becker just wouldn't do it for me, so I decided to try Yaeger. On the 4th try,
I passed FAR using Yaeger and my score went from 68 to 78. I couldn't be happier. What Yaeger did it for me that Becker didn't were the methods and explanations given by the instructors made sense to me and clarified the materials for me in ways that Becker couldn't. This is especially true for an instructor named Cynthia Simpson. She is VERY good in explaining materials and I believe I definitely could not have passed FAR without her and Yaeger.
So THANK YOU VERY MUCH, Yaeger. Now that I've passed FAR, I'm done with the CPA exam. And I just got my CPA certificate today. I can finally have my life back. It's been a LONG year studying for the exam.
All the Best,

I wanted to compliment the Yeager team on helping me pass the CPA exams. I purchased the home study program and three of the CRAM courses. It had been many years since I finished my college courses so this program turned into more of a learning program than a review program. The Wiley books are well written and easy to read but I preferred the DVD program. The DVDs and the instructors provided me with better motivation than reading alone. The CRAM courses offered a perfect review of the home study course. This program was wonderful and I highly recommend it. Thank you Phil and Cindy and Company!
Thank you, John for assisting me over the past year with the many questions I had. Bonni was correct when she told me that that I could not afford not to buy the CRAM courses. It seemed like a lot of money up front, but I can now say that it was totally worth it because it is all behind me now.

I just wanted to extend my thanks to the team at Yaeger. I just found out today that I passed my first section, REG, with the help of your Home Study product. I initially tried to study on my own, using a different program that offered no lectures, however, as exam time approached, I found that I had not even gotten through one section on my own. I decided to buy the Yaeger Home Study product for Regulation. I had 4 week to get through the material before I sat for the exam. I must admit, it was close, and I only got through all of the assigned multiple choice questions once. Apparently, it was enough; I found out today from the VA board that I passed with a 91! I was astounded. I must confess that I was really concerned with the sims, but I found them to be easier than the multiple choice questions; I think Phil's explanations of the concepts really made that happen.
-Jess Novitch
Another71 recommended Yaeger to me and I gave it a shot. I really enjoyed the DVD classes and the teaching style; Phil broke everything down into manageable pieces that I could easily understand, notate, and remember. What had seemed so hard before was suddenly much clearer to me - a light bulb had clicked on over my head. I walked into the exam room in May (after busy season was over) and blew the first testlet out of the water! I ended up with a 94. That's a 31 point increase, due to my determination and hard work, and to Yaeger! Thanks Phil!"

FinalIy I am a CPA. Thanks to Jeff and Yaeger. Last year during August I cleared BEC and FAR in my first attempt. That made me a little lazy, and this year when I appeared for REG and AUD in May, I failed both with 68 and 73. I did not prepare properly and I was using outdated material (Becker 2006). Then from this site I heard about Yaeger and I ordered the REG and AUD homestudy. I had only less than 2 months to prepare and appear for exams. I appeared for REG on 31 July and AUD on 7 Aug. I got 83 for REG and 81 for AUD. Once again thanks to all.

I passed REG!!!! I previously failed 2 times using Becker and I passed the very 1st time
I used YAEGER CPA Review. I went from a 72 to 81. I could not have done it without you!! I am now 2 for 2 using your course. (I passed BEC 3 months earlier.)
-Robert Andersen
I just got my FARE score today. I passed with a 79 and I'm done with the CPA
exam. I had failed three times in a row while using Becker. Just by chance, I
stumbled upon your course while looking at Jeff's blog. Jeff told me it worked
and I have to admit I was skeptical at first. I thought the reason I failed was
because of me and had nothing to do with my review course. I failed with a 71
and a 69. I improved 10 points from my last exam and it feels great. The little
tips really helped me. Cindy said never guess with A. Her charts were amazing.
They definitely helped me on the exam. I would recommend your program to anyone
trying to pass this exam. Thank you so much.
-Jason Doughty
I wanted to thank you for all of your hard work. I passed regulation with a 79 and have you guys to thank. I failed twice before with Becker. Once I purchased your home study for all 4 parts I knew as soon as I took the test you guys gave me the extra edge I needed. I cant tell you how much I appreciate your course and have recommended your course to everyone.
Thank you

Phil and Bonni,
I want to thank you and the entire team for your CPA Review courses. I have now passed all four sections of my CPA exam, including getting a 97 on FARE! I have a coworker who studied for his CPA with Becker and has failed the same section twice! I recommend the Yaeger CPA Review courses to everyone, (he didn't listen).
I worked hard for several months, but I definitely could not have made it without you guys! It's great to pick up the phone with a question and have Phil walk you through it and offer recommendations!
Please keep up the good work for all the future candidates like me who need someone to really care whether or not we pass the exams!
Thanks!
-Carla L. Fisher
Please convey my heartfelt thanks to the Yaeger team. I've been out of college for 15 years and passed the CPA exam by using the Yaeger self-study course. A teaching course is what I needed, and a teaching course is what I got.
-Todd Baker
Just wanted to let you know that after struggling with BEC using other software, I ordered Yaeger CRAM DVD for my 3rd attempt. I finally passed with a 75! I am ecstatic, and even more confident going into my last section (FAR) that I am taking on Saturday, because I have been studying with Yaeger's full [comprehensive] FAR review. Thank you so much!
I only wish I would have used Yaeger from the start!

About a month ago, I purchased the Yeager Regulation Audio from you during my study cram time immediately in the few days leading up to the exam. I had taken regulation in the past on two occasions scoring a 71 on both attempts. During those attempts I had used both Bisk CPA Ready, Kaplan Flash Cards, and Wiley to prepare. After reading the another71.com website and the testimonials on your site, I decided that I needed something additional to my Wiley software and textbook this time. I purchased and listened to the lectures consistently over a 4 day period on my iPod especially when I took a few breaks from answering questions. I subsequently took the exam and recalled on numerous occasions certain information that I remembered from listening to the lectures alone. I know for a fact that these lectures helped me this time around. I felt I was prepared. I received my score yesterday evening and I scored an 86! It was a 14 point improvement over my last two times taking this part and I was ecstatic. I felt the lectures prepared me better than any other information in the past. I wanted to share this with you and send my sincerest gratitude for helping me complete this final part. I will be sure to recommend your product to other members of the firm taking the exam.
Thanks!

Just wanted to share a recent story dealing with Yaeger here...
I just took FAR on 5/29. Leading up to that date, I purchased Yaeger's FAR CRAM to study through Memorial Day weekend with. Upon starting the program online, I had troubles connecting up with the server using the link that was provided. I immediately called the number on Yaeger's site and got a hold of Phil himself while he was on vacation with his family. He immediately tracked down an answer for me that fixed the issue. Additionally, he called me back a couple of times just to give me some pointers on how to use the cram and what items to really listen in on. He also followed up with telling me to contact him again if I had any questions. GREAT customer service!
I was just about wrapped up with my studying the Thursday before, and I decided to email Cindy Simpson with some questions. Naturally I should have realized that instructors need some lead time to answer questions for you, but Cindy took the questions I had and gave me very detailed answers via email in short order, and also gave me some last-minute encouragement to take the exam.
I took it on 5/29 and felt very prepared. Phil and Cindy were outstanding in taking a personal interest in my studying and preparation, and I could not be any more pleased with their friendly service. I would recommend any of their review materials to anybody! I had my first passing score with BEC after using their CRAM for that exam and scored 10 points better than I had in the last time trying.

Hello Kelly and the rest of the Yaeger Crew,
My name is Matt Curbeau and I currently am a 1st year accountant with one of the big four accounting firms. I can say that this past year has been the most stressful year of my life. The CPA has consumed me for the past 11 months. I started off with 2 fails by 2 points each without Yaeger. Through the heart of busy season and with the aid of your cram webcasts I have passed Audit, Regulation, and BEC. Due to being in tax during this busy season I was set back in studying for FAR. However, I have it scheduled for May 23 and I am trying my best to get ready. I am not going to lie...my firm gave us Becker for free so I have been using it as my first look of sorts. However, I have reached a point, mainly chapter 5 that gets into leases, bonds, pensions, etc...and its just way to much for me..Your course is the perfect fit. Thus, I am coming back to you guys for the third time in a row in hopes of repeat success.
I just wanted to make sure that I thanked you for all that you do. I love the way the material is taught and I feel that Phil does a great job of getting through to me as I am sure many other's have expressed these similar view.
Hello Phil,
I want to thank you for your help. I passed BEC on my 3rd try using Yaeger's cram session.
I tried using BECKER the first two times, but using your program the 3rd time allowed me to
go from a 67 to a 79.
-Robert Andersen
I received my score for my final section of the CPA exam this past Saturday. I had passed the BEC and Audit sections last Summer and Fall. I had been struggling with the REG and FAR sections. I used several CPA review courses. I could not figure out why I was not passing these exams. I was putting forth the time and effort and the results were not there. Since I had used other review courses, I was very skeptical that another review course would have helped, but I went ahead with the cram course for REG. After taking the REG exam, I could tell immediately that I knew so much more than before. Then I went ahead and purchased the cram course for FAR. I went from a 66 to an 81 in REG and I went from a 71 to a 79 in FAR!
When watching your lectures, I could immediately tell that Phil was aware of the tricky questions that they have on the exam. Your lectures and the Wiley questions focused in on the types of questions that were asked on the exam. These questions made a huge difference as compared to the questions from other CPA review courses.
I honestly do not think that I would have passed the exam without the lectures and the Wiley questions since I struggled so much beforehand.
A big thanks to the Yaeger team!!
-Tim Grady
For Phil Yaeger, Cindy Simpson, and the rest of the team:
Thank you for your assistance in helping me pass the Financial and Regulation sections of the CPA exam. I used the
Becker review course the previous times I took Financial and Regulation sections, and after
not succeeding, I purchased your Home Study course. Using your course and a lot of hard work, I passed Financial and Regulation.
Thanks again, you were a big part of my success.
Best Regards,

I just wanted to thank you guy
s! I took all four parts of the exam
between October 16, 2008 and November 24, 2008 and passed
ALL four parts on the first try. I got a 78 on AUD, 85 on BEC,
93 on REG and 94 on FAR! Your program was wonderful! The most
valuable parts (for me) were the tips and time saving suggestions that
the instructors gave us. By far, Cindy and Phil are the best instructors
they cut right down to the important material and tell us what not to waste
our time on. I will recommend this review course to anyone who is
contemplating sitting for the exam. Thanks again!
-Kristina Malloy
I recently got my passing score in FAR and I am now DONE with this exam. Big thanks to Phil and Cindy's efforts, the Yaeger CPA Review teaches what counts while being fun and engaging. I initially took a live course and wasted time commuting and wasted $$$. With Yaeger, I studied when I wanted, at home, in my PJ's (highly recommeded for any CPA candidate!)
-Kamran Khan
Please tell Phil Yaeger that I passed all 4 parts of the exam the first time! I studied two months full-time, July and August, and took a test every two weeks. This meant a lot, considering I graduated in 1983 and had to pass all parts by December 2008, due to the new credit requirement. Tell him thanks for his help and his course!!!
-Alma Sepulveda
I am now studying regulation. I ordered Becker, Bisk and Yaeger review programs for regulation. However, Becker and Bisk are gathering dust. I am only using the Yaeger review program. You will not find out how great the people at Yaeger are until you order one of their review programs. I am 100% sold on this company.
-Leonard Wilfert
I just wanted to pass along my thanks to the entire team for a great review course.I have been out of school for 6 years and have put off studying and getting my license. This year, I decided to really focus through out the winter
and pass. This was a bit of a challenge, but Yaeger Review pushed me through. I started out on my own with Audit - I was always strong here. I studied on my own with the Wiley book for two weeks and passed with an 81. I then discovered your website and decided to do the live CRAM webinar in January for Regulation, my next scheduled section. The Reg CRAM, along with two more weeks of study passed, enabled me to pass, again with an 81. Two weeks later, I took the BEC section, along with your CRAM course, and scored 77. I could never have passed this section without you guys. I then ran out of time during the first test window of the year and had to schedule FAR for April. I took a break in March and focused in April on FAR and, along with the CRAM session, passed with an 82. Thank you guys so much for getting me through this exam in only 9 weeks of studying. I will refer you guys to anyone I know who will be taking the exam.
