Accounting: I used the REA book plus an intro textbook borrowed from the library for when I wanted a bit of extra coverage. Finance, I'm using an old edition of one of the texts recommended in the exam outline, the quizzes on the book's website, and Barron's Finance when I want to read it explained differently. IC a little bit. The IC feedback forum for both (and every other exam I have taken). Hope this helps.

Are you getting ready to take Finance? I hope to take it within a week. How is the studying going for you? I hate this one. I am using one of the recommended texts also and feel like it goes too deep. I am having a hard time deciding what to concentrate on even with the help of jadechow (my hero) and the feedback. I took acct 1 and 2 about 5 years ago, used to be in the mortgage business and do tax returns and it seems like all of that is not helping much. Geez all those blasted calculations and formulas....killin me!
