Question: What is the best way to use my CIA Review System?
Answer: To ensure that you are using your CIA Review System successfully, I recommend following the steps listed below while using all of the materials together (Books, Test Prep Software, Audio Reviews, and Gleim Online):
- In Gleim Online, complete Multiple-Choice Quiz #1 and review the incorrect answer explanations. It is expected that your scores will be low on the first quiz.
- After the initial 20-question test, use the audiovisual presentation for an overview of the study unit. You may substitute listening to the audio CDs for the audiovisual presentation.
- Complete the 30-question True/False quiz. This quiz serves as an interactive introduction to the Knowledge Transfer Outline, familiarizes candidates with the topics covered, and accelerates the learning process.
- Study the Knowledge Transfer Outline, specifically the troublesome areas identified from the multiple-choice and true/false questions in Gleim Online. The Knowledge Transfer Outlines can be studied either Online or from the book.
- Complete Multiple-Choice Quiz #2 in Gleim Online and review the incorrect answer explanations.
- Complete two 20-question quizzes while in Test Mode from the CIA Test Prep Software.
When following these steps, you will complete all 10 study units in about 50-60 hours. Then spend about 10-20 hours using the CIA Test Prep Software to create customized tests for the problem areas that you identified. To review the entire part before the exam, use the CIA Test Prep Software to create 20-question quizzes that draw questions from all ten study units. Continue taking 20-question quizzes until you approach your desired proficiency level, e.g., 75%+.
