Hi Sumaya,
I got both Wiley and Gleim premium packages to prepare for my CMA Part 1 exam that I took on October 31, 2019. I liked and used the video lessons from Wiley and did all the requirements for the course. I liked that Wiley divides the lessons into bite-sized pieces which do not seem overwhelming for somebody like me who has a full-time job. I went through the whole Wiley course for about 13 weeks in total. When I was done with my full course with Wiley, I used my Gleim access for review and refresher. I basically had to go through the whole course of Gleim but without going through the video lessons. I did all the MCQs, Focus Questions (True or False) and Essay assessments for each unit. I can finish a study unit in Gleim from 1 to 2 days. I did not have enough time to test myself on Gleim Essay bank but I did go through all the Essay questions on a learning mode. Overall, I went through the whole Gelim course in 4 weeks before the exam. I was studying an average of 3 to 4 hours per day, 5-6 days a week, for a total of 17 weeks going through both Wiley and Gleim. Oh, and I also made use of the Wiley flashcards during the last few days before the exam. It really helps with refreshing my memory.
Based on experience, the actual exam questions will be tougher than the questions in the review courses. But the review courses are designed to help you practice and master concepts which should equip you in the actual exams.

Subject: Gleim Exam Prep Material vs wiley
Hi,
I have Wiley material , but the exam questions were not anything close to Wiley. I am considering to buy Gleim Mega test Bank. I am planning to do video lessons from Wiley & Gleim Test bank.
I have had terrible exam experiences and was didnt make it at all although my time management has been fair.
So is there anyone who feel the same? Kindly advise as I am in Dilemma
