Obviously CPA exam has been a pain in my ass that won't bother me any longer I have gotten my license already thanks to you Mr Dylan God bless you more cuz you made it possible for me

[jasonreddick]

This was very encouraging and needed 💕. FAR is definitely discouraging me but I’m going to keep pushing.

I have Aud and Reg under my belt rn though

[NikkiBrown-etix]

Thanks for sharing your journey. I’m sure this will help a lot of people.

[PerryWarjiyo-zbil]

Passing the CPA exams is when you study hard, if you can't study or you don't have time for your studies I'd advise you get yourself a help like Mr Willard.

[Jotacontador]

Wow congratulations, I'm Brazilian and I'm starting studies to apply for the CPA, and moving to the USA, it's great to see stories like yours

[marvelouss]

I find the most successful candidates are the recent college graduates. The theoretical concepts are still fresh.

[candacesparks]

Congratulations! You are beautiful and seem very humble. I am proud of you! Thank you for sharing your journey. I purchased Becker three years ago and am finally starting my journey to study.

[CabECalloway]

Passed old BEC in December now I am taking FAR on the 5th…

[mehtabhussain]

I tried many times for the Aud exam but I Didn't succeed
Can you please someone give me advice

[SimplyAnniii]

Hi, If you couldn’t grasp a chapter or concept did you study it until you learned it or did you move on?

[elderlycatpatriot]

My accounting teacher in high school told me about a story of a girl who didn't get a single thing wrong in the entire class until she took the advanced version of the class the following year; he said, "by the end of it, she probably knew more about accounting than I do, even now."

He then went on to say that she passed the CPA exam...in *ONE TRY.* "No one passes it in one try. It just...doesn't happen! There's no way!" 💀

Sorry it's kinda not related but this video inspired me to share this story. I've wanted to for a long time lol

[ruthgebreyes]

Have you taken Ninja ?? Are the sample questions the same as the exam ?

[meyca]

That's interesting to hear. In MA you can sit for the exam with a bachelors and get the education later or at the same time.

[keonwilliams]

I'm interested in going to school for accounting so I was thinking of doing a 2 year Associate's degrees to test how I like it, then transfer to a University and pursue my Bachelors. Would that make sense to do or should I just go straight into my Bachelors, to avoid troubles with transferring credits and/or doubts from potential jobs from only had 2 years of a Bachelors course.

[andrewsayirebiacquah]

This was helpful! I plan getting the accounting courses I need, and then taking the exam after. I would appreciate a video on how non-accounting but business majors can meet the requirements.

[poojamangwani]

Thanks for sharing your CPA journey. Can you please elaborate on how you studied for last 2-3 days, how did you cram up the entire syllabus specially for REG and FAR.

[kingasyper]

This video was helpful! Just curious how many months you studied for each exam and just to clarify, you only read the book and did the MCQ's for each exam?

[amitozsingh]

Thank you for sharing your experience, best wishes to you and your family, i m also taking cpa exam in September 😊

[DiamondBrown-udur]

Hey Doll! Another great video! 🎉

I’m not studying to be a CPA but these are some great tips to carry no matter the journey. If we want something bad enough we have to put in the work.
Glad you were able to withstand the obstacles and push through.

Thanks for sharing!
Diamond B ❤

Thank you for the video. I am working very hard to pass these exam but am failing by a little margins. . I have doing accounting for the last 5 years. I am good at doing case studies, but MCQ’s are just not my thing. Any tips to score good points in MCQ’s?
