I typed out a really long post about how I can relate to your story - something went wrong. SOOO I can relate because I have been living in hell with the CPA exam since July of 2014. I too had to start completely over! It has been horrible. But in December of 2018 I found out that I passed both FAR & REG (REG for a second time). I'm trying to stay on task. CPA is the goal. Stay encouraged Courtney!!!!!!!!

Thank you for sharing your CPA journey! I can relate in so many ways. BEC was definitely the most challenging for me. I was devastated when I failed. FAR had the most information but I enjoyed the topics it covered so it wasn't that bad for me. So glad my journey is over 🙏🏽🙌🏽

FAR was the most complex and had the most information for me but BEC dragged me the hardest. I took BEC four times. Lord knows it feels good to finally be on the other side.

Hello! You are giving me life right now. Currently studying for REG and plan to test first week of October. I have not passed any sections yet but I know I will become a CPA. Thank you so much for your encouragement because I feel like you know exactly how I feel. Watching all your videos and I feel like I gained a sista.

OMG! This video hit right on time. I graduated with an accounting degree back in 2015. Professionally I work in the construction industry. I made a crazy decision to get back into account and study for my CPA Jan of 2018. Feb 2018 I bought Surgent b/c they were the cheapest and never expired. I started studying for AUD in April. Struggled with it and kept rescheduling and pushing back my exam date due to fear. Finally, Oct I just went in to sit for it to face my fear of the exam(knowingly I was not ready). Got scores back and failed it drastically. According to my score I knew none of the material. I was so devastated I took about a month really wondering if this is what I wanted. Life emergency occurred as well and I had to just take a break. Finally, I started over with FAR May of this year and find myself feeling like I am not understanding the material between lecture videos, multiple choice It's just been a struggle. There are account terms I am not familiar with some things I just have never seen before that I will go and google or watch a video about. Still not clicking as far as learning the material. Someone suggest I look into Becker. I am kind of at a brick wall at this point.

Melissa Johnson First of all, kudos for starting this journey-that’s Major. I used Becker and their material mirrors the exam and they do a great job at explaining the concepts. Don’t get discouraged by the failure. The good thing is you now know what to expect on the exam. If you can explain the concepts in your own words-you understand them. When you practice make sure you’re reading why your answers are correct or incorrect. There are so many details

I got Wiley because I did not want to spend a lot of money and they expire. So I just got Becker and I wish I would of started with them. It is a lot better.

Thanks Larissa :)! I tried out the free 21 day trial with Becker and loved it. It's just so expensive. But if I want to pass guess I will have to buy it

I definitely underestimated this process as well 😩 . Just got news I passed FAR (my first section). Now on go BEC. It’s so hard not to compare ! My peer passed far in 2 months then BEC one month later! And passing far took me 4 months and still didn’t think I passed when I took the test. Thank you for this video, so encouraging !! Came right on time .
