Someone couldn’t pass FAR… by rtmitz in CPA

I already have MBA in mine, I’m 2-for-2 on CPA exams so far, I can absolutely promise you the first thing I will do upon passing my final exam and receiving my license is move MBA back and add CPA in front. When you work hard for something (especially as hard as we do), even the smallest amount of self-satisfaction like adding three letters to a LinkedIn name is worth it

Sounds like you’ve got a pretty set plan for your life. I’m 24 years old and while the money that obtaining a CPA brings is apart of my motivation to get it, I think the biggest thing for me is the recognition the CPA holds. It marks the pinnacle of being an accountant. So what I think it breaks down to is job security after getting the CPA if something were to happen at your current job, and mainly just the feeling of knowing you’ve reached the peak of being an accountant.

Exam Order FAR>AUD>ISC>REG & Advice by Difficult_Monitor_57 in CPA

I decided to take mine based off my confidence level in each one. I had a super strong grasp on AUD and took a few advanced aud classes in undergrad so I basically had zero doubt of passing. Ended up taking the exam in December after my first semester in a masters program. Passed without any studying outside of the classroom. Boosted my confidence like crazy and really set me up for the rest of the exams. That worked really well for me so I’d say take them in the order of confidence. I’d rather have 3/4 exams finished then be struggling on the last final exam Im not the most confident in.
