Hey Y'all! Would CPA Coaching/Mentorship be something that you think would be helpful to you? I know that the journey is difficult and alot of people aren't even attempting the exam because of this. I would love to help! If that is something that you would be interested in let me know! You can fill out this form to let me know where you're at in journey and what your goals/concerns are. thehub-api.mastermind.com/widget/form/3wxEise3yztMYtZpaxjk I look forward to looking at your feedback!
I have a cousin who never studied much, we studied together but she gives most of her time to her phone than studies after writing the CPA exam last month she passed and I failed 😣, I asked her how she did it , just found out she got her help from Mr Ben
Thanks so much! Good for you, our industry is in need of more CPAs. We are struggling to find new talent. I think the U.S. pays more to CPAs than some other countries too. We just interviewed someone relocating from Canada because the wages for CPAs there are so low. Good luck studying! Let me know if you would like to see any videos specific to getting or being a CPA.
@@BrittanyJanaeCPA Yes, the payments are lower here, and in the USA it pays much better, I hope to get a job to get used to the routine if I know of any opportunities, and yes I would like a video on how to obtain the CPA
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.
Aww thank you so much 🥰. I really appreciate that! Yesss to you being ready to start studying. It’s definitely a serious journey, but you are up for it! Just stay consistent and your future self will appreciate it! Good luck!!
@@BrittanyJanaeCPA you're so welcome thank you for committing to start! You're helping me do the same (I'm references back to your first video and why you're doing this!) Would love to connect/network/and partner with like minded women like you 🥰
@Ethical_Tax Yes ma'am, starting is the hardest part. I would love to do all the above, I sent you an email with resources. Please don't hesitate to email back and we can set up a meeting!
@@ruthgebreyes6897 I used Ninja! And I found it very helpful. They were similar to the exam questions yes. They offer more practice questions that with your study provider. It was a good supplement for me.
I'm so glad you found this encouraging! Trust me, I get it. FAR is not for the weak lol. Congrats! You are half way there, can't stop now! And I will say, when I actually sat for FAR, I felt like I made it worse in my head than what it actually was. At the end of the day, you just need to prepare for it like the others you already passed. Good Luck!!
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.
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 ❤
😭 you are literally the best. Thank you for watching even though it didn’t relate to your journey. I’m so glad you were still able to take something from it! 🫶🏾
I want to know how to tackle simulations. I have taken FAR so many times, and the sims just don’t stick. What I find is that in the exam it’s much harder than my studies
@mariahgoss1936 I think you should practice taking more simulations. Also, focus on understanding the concept when you are practicing, as the simulations are going to always be different. Keep taking simulation only practice exams until you’re scoring above an 85. . Who do you use as a study provider?
You can do the same in VA, you just have to certain courses before you sit and the courses I took in undergrad didn’t satisfy the requirements. I was so mad lol because I wanted to sit my first semester of grad school, but I had to wait.
Hey thank you for this information very helpful. I also want you to take the MS in accounting at ODU, would you say they prepare students for the CPA exam? I am looking for internships while studying , does ODU partners with firms for internship?
@@jypymix20001 I went to the University of phoenix for undergrad. And for the MS i'm going to Isenburg University of massachusetts amherst, they have an online class option AND they are partnered with the big 4. There curriculum is also centered around getting your CPA. And they have internships.
@mehtabhussain9117 my advice would be to analyze your study plan and make some changes. I'm assuming that will make a big difference. Figure out how you retain information best then adjust your study techniques/plan to make them work better for you. I just started coaching CPA candidates who are on their exam journey. This is one of the 1st things we work on. If you need more help, go to the link in my bio and reach out. Good Luck on your journey!
Hello! Thanks for the video. Have you taken any tuitions or is it all self study? I have done CPA Australia and planning to move to USA next year. So please let me know if the material will be enough to study.
@yashPatel-e7s you are very welcome! You have to have 150 credit hours from a university to include a Bachelors Degree to be able to sit for the exam. However the material to study for the exam is all self study. You don’t need to take any additional classes to study for the exam. I hope that helps!
@@YashPatel-e7s You have to purchase the study material if your employer doesn't purchase it for you. Books are included with the study provider you choose. Some popular providers include Becker, Wiley, Rogers CPA, Surgent, Ninja, etc. I used Wiley, but I think they go by a different name now. You will have to do research to decide which one fits your study style better. You can look at articles like this to help you make your decision www.cpaexamguide.com/best-cpa-review-courses. Good luck on your journey!
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.
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.
This is a great question! I might do a part 2 to include this. The last 2-3 days I would take practice exams over and over on various topics, focusing mainly on topics that I was struggling on, until I consistently got over 85s or 90s I believe. I used Wiley, you could "create" exams to practice on based on the MCQ library. I would also use Ninja CPA Review for additional MCQs to practice. I also reviewed all my notes, flash cards, and highlighted materials. Before my exam I would sit in the car and skim through my notes too lol. I treated all the exams the same from a studying process stand point. I didn't do anything different for FAR or REG. I hope that helps! Good Luck studying :)
I graduated from NSU with my Bachelor's in Accounting! I have my MBA as well from 6 years ago but I'm struggling to get started and actually staying consistent. I should have completed the exam right after graduating with my MBA. Do you have your own tax business?
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.
@keonwilliams5099 Hey! I don't think it matters which route you take. At the end of the day as long as you have credits that are transferable you will be ok. I don't think companies care which route you go as long as you have your Bachelors at least. Hope that helps!
hi just wanted to know how are the job prospects for a cima uk student in management / internal roles in usa ?? and is it possible to get credits for sitting cpa us exam with my cima uk and bachelors??
@@S02055 Hey! I honestly don’t know about the job prospects for a CIMA specifically, but I think there are tons of opportunities in the public accounting field here! You could definitely find a job with your CIMA, but to move up your employer might require a CPA. I’m also not sure about transferring your credits, you would have to do some research on that. Good luck!!
Hey! It would really depend on how big the topic was. If I wasn't grasping big topics, I wouldn't move on until I understood it. I would keep studying and taking the practice exams until it was obvious I understood the material. If it was a smaller topic in the grand scheme of things I would just move on. The study software you use should make it clear which topics might be more important than others based on what they focus on. You should also be able to find blueprints of each section on the AICPA webite.
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?
@AKRB10 Thank you for watching! Honestly, I would say the best way to get better at MCQ's is just to keep doing them. If you need extra MCQ's to practice, you can try Ninja CPA Review. They have a monthly subscription you can cancel anytime. I used them for a couple months when I would be close to sitting for an exam and it provides more exposure than just your current provider. I would also focus on why you are getting the questions wrong. When it gives you the reason, make sure you study that too. This helped me tremendously. Make sure you hyper focus on the material that you are struggling with if it is a large portion of the exam. Maybe even watch some UA-cam videos on how to get better at answering multiple choice questions. I hope that helped. Don't give up, you will get there :). Good luck on your exam journey!
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
@elderlycatpatriot don’t be sorry lol, I appreciate you sharing! No offense to your accounting teacher, but that just not true lol. I know lots of people who took every part once. It’s def possible for anyone to do with the right plan for them!
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?
I’m glad it was helpful! I would say I studied between 1-1.5 months per section. I would study about 15-20 hours per week. And yes, for the most part I would just read the study material and take the exams then focus on what I didn’t understand. I would look for other avenues to study for topics I was having a hard time grasping like watching UA-cam videos. I also had a subscription to Ninja Warrior for a little extra practice. Wiley also provided a flash card book that I ready through occasionally.
Nice, Congrats! CPA Study Group FAR I BAR I AUD I REG [Study Support & Networking] and CPA Exam Candidates Forum are 2 big ones. I was in groups for each specific section too. You can search for groups on Facebook. Make sure you choose a group that has a good amount of posts a day to keep you motivated. Good luck on your journey!
That makes sense. They also don't have a lot of work experience which can sometimes counter what we learned in school. I know when I first started in public accounting it was so different than school. You are also used to studying if you do it right after graduating.
Do you think a master is needed before taking the CPA exam? I still need 9 credits before I can sit but took a year off after undergrad. I’m definitely more motivated now than ever to study and put in the hours, but wasn’t the best at financial accounting part 2 in college. Please let Mel know what you think!
@@anthonyllerena9 No, I don’t think it is needed at all. I think it is nice to have if you want to pad your resume and can help as far as increasing your knowledge for the exam. However it honestly doesn’t really matter in the real world. You gain all your real life knowledge through experience. It might decrease the amount of time studying for the exam, but not by alot. I hope that helps. Good luck on studying!!
I graduated from NSU with my Bachelor's in Accounting! I have my MBA as well from 6 years ago but I'm struggling to get started and actually staying consistent. I should have completed the exam right after graduating with my MBA. Do you have your own tax business?
Okkayy NSU! You're close to home. Good for you! It's ok that you decided to wait. You just have to commit to taking it on, once you start you have to finish. I know you can do it, it just takes a shift in your mindset! Yes and no on my own tax business, I currently work for a Public Accounting firm as a Tax Manager, but I also own a Financial Literacy Coaching business where I do tax preparation there as well. I used to want to own my own CPA firm, but I don't have that desire anymore.

Yes and no on my own tax business, I currently work for a Public Accounting firm as a Tax Manager, but I also own a Financial Literacy Coaching business where I do tax preparation there as well. I used to want to own my own CPA firm, but I don't have that desire anymore.
If you’re having difficulties studying/passing your exam I advise you to get a help like Prof Dylan
His availability is on tele gram
@ Mr_Dylan01
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 Dylan
Am sorry for that some people also
go through difficulties, just be patient
and keep studying
I saw someone say he is not trustworthy i
couldn't stop laughing, really people say a lot
of shit these days.
He doesn't have a UA-cam channel, why is that?
hello!! This a backdoor we're talking about not
some kind of extra classes, you really won't
expect him to have youtubeChannel is not safe for him
I was lucky to meet Mr Dylan only God
knows I wouldn't have succeeded without him
