ABOUT MANGA LEDGER

About Manga Ledger

I am a licensed U.S. CPA. While studying with Gleim’s question bank, I found myself wishing for something that would help me see the big picture first. That experience inspired Manga Ledger.

THE BEGINNING

Connect the concepts.See the big picture.

Having used Gleim myself, I was impressed by the sheer number of questions, its broad coverage, and the quality of its test bank. For me, though, that same volume could make it difficult to know where to begin.

Before diving into individual topics and questions, I wanted to see the whole picture and understand how the ideas connected. I created this web app as a supplement that learners can use alongside their main study materials and question banks.

Manga is a familiar part of my Japanese background, so I included it alongside diagrams and tables. These visuals help learners follow transactions and understand why the numbers change, then connect those insights to their main study materials.

AN HONEST MESSAGE

Get more from your main course.

Preparing for the exam requires broad coverage and substantial practice. Manga Ledger helps you clarify difficult topics so you can return to your main course with a clearer understanding.

See the relationships in manga and diagrams, then test your understanding with questions that change the conditions. Explain the reasoning in your own words and carry it into your next study session.

Having struggled with studying myself, I believe making learning enjoyable helps people stick with it.

Use Manga Ledger to connect the concepts, then deepen your understanding with your own course and question bank.

My goal is to make it easy to find the topic you need whenever you get stuck.
