I would highly recommend taking accounting and finance classes in college to have a strong foundation for the CMA exam. These classes will provide you with a solid understanding of the financial and accounting concepts that are covered on the exam. Additionally, taking classes will help you develop the necessary skills and knowledge to analyze and interpret financial information, which will be essential when taking the CMA exam. It is also important to note that the CMA exam is widely considered to be challenging, so having a strong educational background in accounting and finance will give you an advantage when preparing for the exam. In addition to taking classes in college, you can also consider joining a student accounting or finance association, or participating in an internship or other hands-on experience in the field.

Hi. Understanding basic accounting concepts is crucial before enrolling in the CMA program. While the CMA syllabus builds on these fundamentals, having a strong foundation will significantly enhance your comprehension and performance throughout the course. If you need to strengthen your basics, consider reviewing introductory accounting topics to better prepare for the CMA journey.

Hi Fangz, I admire your determination to tackle the CMA at such a young age. Because the CMA is an advanced designation, my suggestion is to wait until you are in your third year of college to start preparing for the CMA exam. Once you get your bachelor's degree and pass both CMA exams, start applying for jobs to help you gain field experience.

Hi. After passing both parts of the CMA exam, you will need two continuous years of professional experience in management accounting and/or financial management. This experience can be gained before or within 7 years of passing the exam. Part-time positions can also count towards this requirement as long as they amount to a full-time equivalent.

Hi Sonja! You should remember that to obtain the CMA certification, you must meet specific educational requirements. CMA educational requirements can be fulfilled in two ways: 1. Earn a bachelor’s degree from an accredited college or university 2. Have a professional certification Also, CMA does not require you to have a bachelor’s degree in finance or accounting. But your degree must come from a regionally accredited or Distancing Education Accrediting Commission (DEAC) accredited university or college. If you don't have a bachelor’s degree, you can still qualify for the CMA certification requirements by holding a professional certification. You can learn more about all requirements here: cmaexamacademy.com/cma-certification-requirements/

Doing this you have less information to process and thus perform better in the exam. Is this a good strategy, or should I go 10-12 months on both parts and then try to take the exams?

I don't have an accounting degree. I study international studies as my undergrad degree. The only two accounting classes that I took were the intro to financial accounting and intro to managerial accounting. And I can't imagine getting a management accounting job without an accounting degree. How can I study for it without an accounting degree to serve as my foundation?
@Cmacoach

Hi Hope! It's totally possible to get a management accounting job without an accounting degree. Many professionals make a career transition to accounting via the CMA designation. It's tougher for them to pass the exam compared to someone with an accounting degree of course, but not impossible. For folks who haven't had accounting exposure, my suggestion is to read an Accounting 101 textbook or guide to learn the basics. If you re-read your financial accounting and intro to managerial accounting textbooks, you'd be ready to tackle the CMA. Coaching support is going to be key for you since you'll need extra help to conquer the exam :)

You can find one near you here www.prometric.com/icma For CMA course options, check them out here: cmaexamacademy.com/best-cma-review-course-comparison/

Hi! If you are still in college, choose Student membership. Otherwise, go for the Professional membership. One of the requirements is to have a Bachelor's degree yes. You can start studying for the CMA exam before or after you graduate. College students can take the CMA exam. They just wouldn't get certified until after they graduate and meet the rest of the prerequisites. But it's a great way to get a head start.
