Im 63, so i can do it??, Greetings from Puerto Rico !!!!
Thanks
Ur the best!
🤘🏻🤘🏻
Thanks for the test preparation wisdom and tips. Question.. If I have purchased a major study package for the four sections, like Becker or Roger, but found that I need more MCQs and Task Based Questions get solid in FAR. Where is a good place to for more mcq and sim questions w/o buying another CPA learning bundle? Thanks in advance 😊
Just started my CPA journey today, I just wanna say these videos really inspired me
Was being a CPA Worth it? I'm asking this as a failure
You have no idea how much you've encouraged me as I was on the fence to do it or not. I don't want to regret of not doing it on my last day. I'm looking for the material to buy, could you please secretly tell me which one not buying it ? Thank you
I'm glad that my video helped :) Gleim test bank was very bad for simulation questions. They probably have a good study material if you buy it as the main course, but if you only purchase the test bank, I don't recommend it.
Hi! When you say “3 weeks study period” do you mean excluding time for videos/lectures watched as well or is the 3 weeks including taking time for lectures? Isn’t there too many video lectures to complete in a few days?
Hello. Thank you for your questions. 3 weeks does include the time for videos watched. I believe REG had about 18 hours of videos, so if you watch in double speed, it's 9 hours, so that's only a few days, as I also used the time on exercise bike :)
I’m 41 years old. Accounting has always been my dream career. This year I will start. But I want to do the degree as quickly as possible.
All the Best
It's never too late! Good luck!!
Is dis relevant for 2024 AUD exam ?
I believe it is to some extent, but I'm not up to speed on the recent changes. I'm sorry...
MCQ in random order means from particular modules or from all modules ?
From all modules.
thank you bro
You're welcome!
Good to know people of all ages are studying for the CPA exam. I'll be finishing up my masters in accounting later this year and will start prepping for CPA immediately right after. I'm turning 37 in a month. Thank you for the inspiration.
That's great! Masters and CPA, wow!! Good luck on your journey!!
Thanks for sharing. We have a lot of similarities based on age and study course, I will check all your videos and keep you posted
That's great! Good luck on your journey, and let me know if you have any questions.
Hey, Thank you for the video. If i study >8 hours per day will i be able to clear REG under new regime. I have not studied the subject before.
8 hours per day is probably more than enough :) But efficiency is still necessary.
Hello sir, i am 24 years old from india and I'm persuading cpa . I thought I'm too late for this but watching ur video and comments on this gave me so much of motivation thanks a ton
Great! 24 y.o. is not too late at all! Good luck and enjoy the journey!
@@sugarcpaus2091 thanks a ton! Also, is 3 months from now is enough for FAR? I'm done with 25% of the portion?
Yes, 3 months should be enough. It may be tough if you have a full-time job though, but I do think it is possible.
@@sugarcpaus2091 I am a full time student 😀 Also, did u complete all subjects in two months sir?
Two months is the time it took from passing the first subject to passing the last subject. My first subject was FAR which I took about 2 months, so if you include that, it took me total of 4 months.
Where you were working full time while studying for REG.
No, I was not. That helped me a lot.
@Sugar CPA US Hi.. I have a question. I would like to know which Roger review course plan you chose along with the other courses... It will help me a lot thanks.
I bought the unlimited Roger review course, and Ninja was just by subject. I hope this answers your question, but please let me know again if otherwise.
@mortenenriquez1570 Mr Willard??
Thank you for this video. Can you also make a video on the new CPA curriculum and how to study for the same? Also on which optional subject to choose? And what is the order of taking these exams?
Thank you for your comments and questions. Unfortunately, I don't know the new curriculum, so I can't really respond to your first 2 questions. In terms of the order, I have a video which talks about that, but it was before the new curriculum era. It may still help though...
Thank you for the video. its super helpful. my query is - do we have to learn the format of the forms like Form 1040 in individual taxation? Also in general, do we have to rote-learn the content or reading it multiple times would be a better way to go about the subject? I am just starting my Reg preparation and have only 20 days to finish.
Thank you for your comments and questions. In terms of the forms, it does help to learn it especially for the simulations. The way I studied is really doing as many questions, and studying the ones I missed by reading text and taking notes, and reading my own notes. By doing this, you would be reading the most important parts of the texts multiple times. I have a video about memorization technique which talks about this, so that may help.
Wow a 74, that's soooo close!! Great job, you/we got this!! 🎉
Hi sugar, I have been watching your video as I take my exam. I just finished far 03/25. I feel really good about mcqs even completing the schedule as you’ve mention. However sims kicked my butt, this is my last exam and if I fail it’s because of the sims haha.
Thank you for your comments. I've always thought the sims kicked my butt, but ended up passing, so you never know! My guess is that the hard ones are the dummy ones.
what was your exercise schedule? what time of the day was best for exercising?
I usually do it in the morning or after the nap when I'm awake and have the energy to do it.
👏👏👏love your self motivation steps . Bravo
Thank you!! And good luck to you if you are taking the exams!
I want to start but I don’t know where to get the materials from or anything. I’m going to start with FAR.
You can google CPA review course and find all the major review course materials. I think all the major courses such as Becker and Roger are good. Ninja is very good as a secondary or supplement test bank since they are much cheaper. Best of luck!!
Wow Highly respect your efforts !
Thank you for your comment!! And good luck to you if you are studying for CPA now!
Can you share your notes?
I can give you a sample page
@Sugar CPA US - Did you find the morning study schedule to be effective in studying for the examinations, and would you recommend the morning study schedule, as compared to other times in the day? Thank you for your time.
It worked for me really well as I was able to concentrate with no interferance from my family or friends, and my mind was very clear without having to think about what happened during the day. And I took the power nap during the day, so that I was also awake during the day. I almost never studied at night.
Hi All, please let me know about NINJA training who used it
I liked Ninja as the supplemental test bank. I was great for value.
How about their books and lecture supporting materials. I plan to use only NINJA
Hmmm... I used thier books and audio/video only a few times, but I didn't like it. I had hard time keeping myself awake and concentrated, so Roger was perfect for me because he is so funny and energetic. If you don't have that problem, maybe Ninja works for you.
Straight to the point, loved it!
Thank you for your comment!
Thank you sir for sharing your journey. Huge respect on your endeavor. This inspired me to go forward in a simplistic way! Bless you.
Thank you for your comments, and good luck on your journey!!
Interested to know your thoughts regarding the different test course providers? Would you recommend Becker as well, with UWorld CPA? Thank you for your time
I don't think you need 2 review courses. Do you mean as a supplemental test bank? I loved UWorld because of Roger, but based on what I heard and read, Becker is probabaly better. Just don't buy Gleim as a supplemental test bank.
@@sugarcpaus2091 Thank you for the response. Based on your videos and the trial period, I went with Roger CPA, in 2024 updated version, a lot of the lecturers are not Roger himself. And so, was thinking about needing Becker since every one recommends Becker. would you recommend Becker? Also, when you went through the Roger CPA course -> did you go through the lectures chronologically from Ch 1 to Ch 14 for example? Or, did you approach them a different way? Thank you for your time Best Regards
I see. To me, I needed the lecturer to be very energized and funny because I'm kind of ADHD, so I can't concentrate otherwise. If other lecturers are good and if you are not ADHD, would think Roger is still good, but I don't know. I never used Becker, but they all say Becker is really good (but of course expensive).
@@sugarcpaus2091 Thank you for your response. Also, would that be a Judo gi or jiu-jitsu gi (in your profile picture)? I wanted to ask since I also train jiu-jitsu. Did you also train specifically during the CPA study period? Also, did you go through the UWorld lectures in-order or did you skip around from here to there? Would you recommend going from order, or does this not really matter? Thank you for your responses, Best Regards
@@sugarcpaus2091 Also, you had mentioned there was one provider that you did not recommend. Would this test provider be Becker? Thank you for your time Best Regards
Hey I wanted to say thank you. I am starting here and appreciate your wisdom. I will check back and let you know how I do.
Thank you for your comments. Good luck on your journey, and let me know if you have any questions. Have you seen my memorization technique video? I think that can be helpful.
@@sugarcpaus2091 I haven’t watched it yet but I will.
How can I buy your notes? Those tables are awesome!
Thank you for your comments, and I'm sorry for my late response as I was traveling. I can give you a page as a sample, but I'm not selling my notes. I think the most important thing is to write you own notes so that it helps you memorize things.
@@sugarcpaus2091 Thank you, I find your tables very useful. Please if you could tell me some table suggestions for the REG exam that I'm now preparing would be of much help, along with any tables that you would be willing to share (maybe the most useful or difficult to build).
The only table I created for REG was the tax treatment on various gains and losses. I can send you that page if you send me an email to mizzotini@gmail.com
Thank you for the video! Question: How many hours did you study per day?
Thank you for your comment and question. I studied 4 to 6 hours a day, probably a bit more right before the exam.
hii can you please tell me what should I opt kesler or ninja ..i have exam this month only and need something for practice.
I would pick Ninja, if I have to choose. I did both, and they both helped.
Thank you
Question: When you said, “watch all videos,” does it mean from first video of chapter 1 to the last video of the last chapter then practice and take note? Or does it mean watch all video of chapter 1 then practice and take note, then continue to chapter 2? Did you watch the videos again?
The former. Watched from first video of chapter 1 to the last video of the last chapter then practice and take notes. Roger has two sets of videos, full version and short version. The short version is actually not very short, so it was like wathcing them twice.
Thank you. :)
Hi Sugar, can I ask what did you think about Ninja as a supplement, did you try that?
Ninja was great for the price. It really helped me.
@@sugarcpaus2091 Thank you!
Hi sir, your video is really inspirational. I started doing the MCQ in random order for FAR after spent the first 7 days on video lectures. It’s day 4 for starting MCQ. However, my score lies between 30%-70%, which is quite discouraging. May I know how’s your starting score for FAR MCQs? Also, why do you choose ppt to take notes instead of word doc? Thanks
Thank you for your comments and questions. FAR was the very first section I took, and I don't have a good record of my practice scores, but I was scoring very low and was very frustrated at the beginning. It got gradually better and I was able to constantly exceed 75%. The reason I used ppt is just because I am more of a ppt guy, and never liked using word doc :)
@@sugarcpaus2091Hi Sir, thanks for your reply. It's been six days of doing the MCQs, and although the score still fluctuates, I'm gradually achieving more 70% accuracy. However, I keep failing certain types of questions. Thus, I'm considering starting to take notes. When did you start taking notes? I’m not a very good note takers. Is there any tips for it?
You're welcome. That's great that you are making progress. I actually started taking notes as soon as I started the MCQ's. If you haven't seen my memorization technique video, that may help you how to take notes and how to use your notes to memorize things. Those techniques really helped me.
I must see this before exam on last 13 Dec 2023. I am not confident. I hope a miracle will happen.
I was never confident after the exam either :) I wish you the best!
Just passed BEC (92), this video made me realize that I need to rethink my study plan. Thank you for your insights!
Wow, congratulations!!! Glad that it helped!
What source can I use to practice MCQ?
I think any of the major review courses such as Becker and Roger can be a good source. Ninja can be a good supplemental test bank.
@@sugarcpaus2091 Thank you for your response
Hi sir, by seeing your video, I have also decided to give my last REG exam in 3 weeks. Quick question: Are we supposed to remember every tax slab, phase out amounts, limitations, etc? Specifically for mcqs?
Thank you for your comments and question. I did try to remember them. I had those in my notes.
How did you fare on REG?
@WhateverBella007 I would really suggest this strategy. Because it helped me a lot, and I did my best to finish course in 3 weeks. I got 74 though but it gave me confidence that it's possible.
Wow a 74, so close!! Great job, you/we got this!! 🎉
What material did you refer to for prep?
Thank you for sharing. I watched all your videos, hope them can help. I have a question about the language bias, what good idea you go over it? For example, how to deal with the multiple choices maybe one word for each choice, the words are similar meaning in translation( your native language) from the English?
Thank you for your comments and question. I don't recall having that problem. Did you have that problem in your practice MCQs?
I'm taking the current BEC on the last available date, dec 15th. Super helpful video! I'll let you know how I did after the score release.
Thank you for your comment. I wish you the best!
I just passed with an 86! Only studied 3 days, it's definitely doable
Wow! 86 in 3 days!! Congratulations!!
@@johnsnowwwwJesus dude what did you do
I turned 36, 3 months ago, and am taking my first CPA (BEC) exam on Dec 15th. This is the best advice I have seen online!
Thank you for your comments! Best of luck on your journey!!
Thank you very much! But how do you approach MCQ's without knowing the material, I find it hard sometimes to do MCQ's without some level of understanding. Please share your thoughts.
Thank you for your comments and questions. I watched all the videos first, so I understood the materials a bit. But I usually started around 60% correct, then as I kept doing it, I improved gradually.
dont try random mcq
I’m also using Roger and studying for Audit. How did you go about using Smartpath? Did you hit all the targets? Thanks.
I was checking Smartpath on a daily basis, though I cared more about my overall average score on the practice MCQ's and how I was doing on simulations. I did NOT hit all the targets. I was though hitting 70-80% depending on the section.
Thanks! Did you focus on the SIMs in Roger or did you have another test bank? I also have Becker and it seems that their SIMs tend to be better @@sugarcpaus2091
I had Ninja as the supplement. Ninja is really good for the price :) I didn't use Becker, but I believe it's the best.
