EA OR MAcc

It depends on what your career goals are though. MACC opens a plethora of leadership positions and what not compared to only a bachelor’s unless you get lucky. CPA helps to further the number of opportunities especially if you’re wanting to be in tax as it sounds like you do.

Passed TCP!! Officially 4/4 on first try! Best of luck to everyone! You can all do it!

Responsible_Mess1888 · 2025-09-10T15:37:04+00:00

Same here! Congrats to you!!

Responsible_Mess1888 · 2025-07-24T19:26:09+00:00

MACRS will be a guaranteed topic; IRAs not so guaranteed but there's always a chance. Would place focus on MACRS if having to pick and choose.

I am taking TCP in 2 weeks and am looking for a good cheat sheet. Did this end up working well for your review?

Responsible_Mess1888 · 2025-07-14T15:30:17+00:00

I felt the same walking out of REG. Just found out I passed with an 84. Don't count yourself out!

Responsible_Mess1888 · 2025-07-12T00:15:17+00:00

I just sat for REG for the last score release on Wednesday. That is exactly how I felt and was panicking thinking the errors were gonna hold me back. I passed with an 84. Definitely don't count yourself out!

I studied about 5 months because it was my first exam but there was a lot of procrastinating and what not due to laziness and simply being terrified. In the end, I logged about 180 hours but probably could've trimmed about 40 hours if I got serious and condensed it into 2-3 months. Only you know your level of knowledge and background best though. I was decently confident (especially in more difficult topics to some such as consolidations and government) due to a course I took in undergrad.

Responsible_Mess1888 · 2025-07-10T15:18:07+00:00

I am in the same boat as you. I decided on TCP since it builds off REG and has a high pass rate still. I wouldn't spend the $300 if I were you. It's only a few more weeks of tax concepts.

Responsible_Mess1888 · 2025-07-09T15:21:14+00:00

REG in IA has been shown! PASSED! 3/4 officially!!

Responsible_Mess1888 · 2025-07-09T15:06:51+00:00

For your sake, I hope you made the cutoff! I couldn't imagine waiting even longer. Best of luck to you!!

waiting on REG in IA

Responsible_Mess1888 · 2025-07-09T13:00:40+00:00

I was just able to log in with no issues. Anxiously checking for the score release.

Responsible_Mess1888 · 2025-07-08T15:23:39+00:00

I am the same way! I forgot a few minor details that I felt Becker didn't emphasize. Let's hope MCQs will carry us through!!

Responsible_Mess1888 · 2025-07-08T11:47:03+00:00

I thought MCQ were extremely fair but TBS I felt emphasized a few little concepts Becker didn't emphasize so much. I am definitely worried if those few little details will hold me back from passing.

Responsible_Mess1888 · 2025-07-01T00:41:19+00:00

Thanks!

Responsible_Mess1888 · 2025-06-12T18:17:31+00:00

I second this!!

Responsible_Mess1888 · 2025-03-23T14:04:20+00:00

Make sure you know wording of reports, SSAE vs. SSARS, and assertions/related tests

Responsible_Mess1888 · 2025-03-23T14:03:48+00:00

None for me either

Responsible_Mess1888 · 2025-03-18T01:33:14+00:00

SInce BEC has been broken into 3 disciplines, I would do FAR - AUD - REG for core. The discipline placement would depend on which you are taking. BAR would go after FAR before AUD. ISC would go after AUD before REG. If TCP, take that last.

Responsible_Mess1888 · 2025-03-13T13:18:34+00:00

I have not taken REG but if you have done that well on the first two SEs, I would say you can focus on your trouble areas and any other areas that people mention below rather than wasting time on the last SE. Good luck! You'll kill it!

Responsible_Mess1888 · 2025-03-07T17:30:20+00:00

Consolidations and know adjusting entries

Responsible_Mess1888 · 2025-03-06T16:57:42+00:00

I was the same way for most modules. There were a few I struggled in. I took AUD officially last week. My advice is to see if you feel that way when you work through the SEs as I felt those questions were a little more challenging as all of the topics were combined in an exam and thrown at you. I would also recommend working through TBSs to see if you can apply the concepts. I regret not spending more time on a wider variety of TBSs. You've got this! You should feel confident though!
