Looking for CPA testing insights... I'm currently studying for the AUD exam. I am studying 12+ hours a day and will take it May 27. Is two and a half weeks enough to really get to know the information? Using Becker. I will have 6 days for review before the day of the exam.
Any insights or tips from people who have taken it would be great. Thanks!

12 hours a day for 2 weeks is around 170 ish hours. When I took AUD I probably took it on 100 hours of study time. If these are quality study hours you should be fine. If you haven't already, I'd recommend Ninja Notes (another71.com) to supplement your Becker materials. The Ninja Notes are dumbed down to make high-level sense of each section. Definitely helped me a ton. Good luck.
CPA Review Courses Recommendations I was wondering if anybody knew of, and could recommend any good CPA review courses in the San Jose/San Francisco area besides Roger CPA review, Becker and Yaeger.
Also if anybody could tell me about the courses I have listed it would also help a ton.
I am currently unemployed so I don't have access to any discounts which is why pricing is a factor, but not a decisive one.

Becker is working great so far for my accounting friends and myself. I have also heard of people getting Gleim's as a supplemental to Becker for all the MCQs. As far as discounts go, you can always check with the California Institute of CPAs. Wisconsin's offer a discount on Becker of around $300, simply for being a member, which only costs around $30. Also, you should check out the following sites/forums because they are some of the biggest ones out there regarding the CPA exam. [CPAnet](http://www.cpanet.com) [Another71](http://www.another71.com)
