I've narrowed it down to Schweser and Mark Meldrum. Haven't made a final decision

I did the qbank for schweser (or the base subscription) + MM. if your company isn’t paying, do MM and use the CFAI qbanks and mm questions and videos. The review question videos he did had a lot of questions I saw on the test.

Schweser by far your best bet.

Quick follow-up ... What in particular about Schweser did you like/dislike?
Based on forums, it seems that they have a good question bank but lectures are so-so. Just trying to decide whether to splurge on a package vs. à la carte ...

Yes to all that IBA1 said. I didn’t watch any lectures, but the books explained the concepts really well and the question bank was on par with the exam questions

I tutor it based on schwesser e book
