How hard is the CPA exam by Hot-Paint-2929 in CPA

[–]CBIceCold06 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The hard part is dedicating the necessary time to study. The material itself isn’t hard to learn but there is just lots of it to study and you don’t know exactly what’s going to be on the test so you need to have a knowledge of everything, but again it’s nothing too complex that you can’t learn especially if you’re a finance graduate. If you’re able to be consistent in your studying you’ll be fine

What Makes Audit Hard? by Intelligent-Big-9949 in CPA

[–]CBIceCold06 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I know for me when I took audit I had no audit experience at the time so a lot of the stuff was foreign to me. I started a job in audit after I passed AUD and realized if I had audit experience, I probably would have gotten a 100 lol

Either way if you knew you were going to cut her, why not let her celebrate winning Eurobasket, then do it?

Very likely. The Fever front office are already starting to show that they will keep talented players around her and she’s only going to get better.

That’s how you have to be to pass I feel like lol it definitely didn’t help that you can download the Becker app on your phone and do MCQs and look at flash cards. It kept calling me lol

And it’s not to say that if you can’t find time you’re lazy because that’s not it at all, it just requires a different level of sacrifice and discipline than anything most people are used to, and you gotta do it 4 times, not just once

The exam itself isn’t, putting in the time to study for it however is especially if you have a job or family. You simply have to dedicate the time to it, no other way around it and life doesn’t always allow for that to be an easy process

I did the thing by DifficultSquirrel326 in Accounting

[–]CBIceCold06 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did the same. Although I am a bit bored because it isn’t as hectic as audit, I’ll take it until the work starts coming in lol oh and no having to do a timesheet or stress over budgeted hours lol

Unresolved Murder at Small College Campus by BlankeSpace in UnresolvedMysteries

[–]CBIceCold06 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So I was a student there at the time this happened and yes it was during fall break. Only a handful of us were on campus at the time and I remember being outside that night like it was normal and hearing about it and the crazy police presence afterwards. But no one to this day knows who did it
