No value addition
It was less of a review and more of a forced practice with not much in terms of explanation. Greg the instructor was reading off of the slides at the speed of light without stopping to address any questions that came in through the chat room. The questions in the chatroom were answered by assistant, but that was in writing and in order to read the answer one had to take attention away from the instructor and be even more lost than before. While practice is an important part of preparation it is only helpful if instructor is adding value by explaining the rationale behind the correct answer choice and spends time breaking down complex calculations, in this case again instructor Greg was reading off the answer sheet, which i could have done myself at my own pace. It is not like teaching such large volume in a short time while adding value is impossible, as I have taken live reviews for Level I and Level II in the past and instructors were fantastic. They took time to break down complex concepts, drew diagrams and tables to aid comprehension and talked through candidate’s questions right there and then, because if one person types up the question it’s guaranteed many others also have the same question and would benefit from clarification. While instructor Greg is an accomplished academic and a smart person he failed to share his knowledge with us candidates, failed to connect with us and failed to add value to our preparation. Hope this helps future candidates.
