Cpa Reviewed: The Cpa Exam Podcast

"I had to take a break from my CPA Exam studies to homeschool the kids while we were all in quarantine (Thankfully, there were only minor symptoms, and everyone recovered). Now comes the familiar feeling of guilt from stopping and dread/regret of starting back up again. Any study tips on recovery and how to start preparing for the cpa exam and getting back on track?"

"Hello, I recently failed FAR with a 64 and am trying to pick myself back up after this. I just purchased your materials and would like to know where to begin. Which aspects of NINJA CPA Review would be the most helpful for me? I need help understanding how to proceed after failing FAR. I'm using Becker CPA Review + NINJA & I need help understanding how to proceed after failing FAR."

"Do I have to complete reading the NINJA Notes before jumping into the NINJA MCQ?"

"I couldn't find another place to thank you for creating this website. NINJA CPA review was the reason I started passing the CPA exams in the first place. I can now finally say I am done with all four sections. You have created an amazing site of study materials, and your dedication to your students is amazing. Thank you for creating NINJA. This was truly a wonderful community to be a part of! On days I felt the lowest after failing, I could turn to the forums and groups for encouragement and advice. All the material is incredible and truly helped me through this journey. So thank you, Jeff!!"

Does NINJA MCQ have Mini Mock CPA Exams? Debasis writes in: “Does NINJA MCQ have mini mock CPA Exams? Instead of a 4-hour test, I can have 1.5 to 2 hours in a mini mock CPA Exam window.”

Are NINJA MCQ harder than AICPA CPA Exam questions? Nate writes in: “This is my second time taking auditing, so I have already gone through my Becker CPA Review material. I have read the notes for NINJA a few times but have not been improving in my MCQ performance (around 70% every session). I have read that the questions are harder than AICPA questions and that I may be struggling because I needed to study all the material from NINJA, which the questions are based on. Is this normal, or should I be worried I am not improving?”

This CPA Exam podcast covers: July 2022 CPA Exam changesErin (DOJO) Currently I am hammering out MCQs. I did poorly on the SIMS but did not feel like any of the practice SIMS I did with (CPA Review course) set me up to succeed. Gary (DOJO) I took auditing 5 times 68,70,71,74,71. I am losing my mind.

Starting things off with Krishma. Jeff, I'm studying for my third FAR attempt. My previous scores were 70 and 68. I'm planning to take my exam three weeks from now. Please tell me how I should start and what I should focus on. If your exam is three weeks from now and you're just starting and you're just starting FAR, unless you are studying full time, then you really need to probably push it back. But let's assume that you had a full. Plan. So with the 70 and 68, you're getting there, but there's a significant hole in your steady game. And so essentially you need to follow the NINJA study framework. Just forget this avenue, forget this 68, just mentally start over and just go through the FAR material. Nailed the FAR concepts and take notes while you're doing it. So it doesn't say what course you're using. Presumably NINJA. But the concepts either with your NINJA book or NINJA sparring and lectures start expiring lectures or the lectures for whatever CPA Review course you're using. If you prefer that, th

In this CPA Exam podcast, we cover what do to if you score super-low on the CPA Exam (like a 30) and how to turn things around quickly & much more including live CPA study questions.

Please tell me how should I start and what should I focus on? 2. What is the best way to pass FAR in the next couple of weeks? My test is coming up and I am absolutely struggling even when following the 4-week accelerated plan. I failed my first exam with a 30 and it dropped by confidence like a rock. - Brian (Becker + NINJA) 3. Hello, I recently failed FAR with a 64 and am trying to pick myself back up after this. I just purchased your materials and am just wondering where to even begin? Which aspects of NINJA would you believe would be the most helpful for me? I do not understand how to proceed after failing FAR. - Sarah (Becker + NINJA)

In this CPA podcast, we cover how to survive the misery of losing credits for two CPA Exam sections, studying for two CPA Exam sections at once & more. Have a question for the podcast? Ask Jeff. 1. Hey Jeff - I’m an international CPA student from Hong Kong. I’m just getting started with the CPA Exam process. Do I have to travel to the US to take my exams? If so - any recommendation on a state or city? 2. Erika - Is it possible to study for FAR in less than a month and pass, and if so - how much time is needed, and what is the study method? (also while working FT). (NINJA Only) 3. I received a failing score of 70 for BEC. This is my 3rd time taking it (previous scores are 54 & 61). I’m a new NINJA CPA subscriber. I was wondering if you had any advice on the next steps for my BEC retake. I saw on your website that there is a 4-week plan and a 7-week plan. Which do you recommend for this situation? Any advice and tips would be very appreciated!! - Emily 4. I started the becker CPA review last June

In this CPA podcast, we cover how to get accounting experience for your CPA license (does it mean leaving your current job?), Mock CPA Exams being a waste of time, MCQ vs SIM Study (50/50?), and much more. Have a question for the podcast? Ask Jeff. 1. I have taken BEC 4 times….. 68, 70, 71, 73. I am starting to get a bit stressed about it. I never did this poorly in college. I think I need to focus more and maybe just start the study process over for this exam. I do not want to have to retake AUD. That exam expires on 6/30/2022. I still have BEC, FAR, REG to complete. I am now going to commit more time to this as it is a priority for me. But I am considering switching to FAR, putting in the work, and taking it next. Then moving on to REG, then restudying for BEC and completing it. Do you think this makes sense? If not, could you give me your insight on a course of action? I appreciate your time and help. - Micah 2. Hi Jeff, I scored a 74 on the first FAR exam. I don't think my concepts are weak (exce
