I graduate with my Accounting Degree in May, I was wondering if I can pass all four parts of the CPA by September. I will be studying full time with the Becker Review and not working at all. Is this a realistic goal or will I just go insane? I plan I taking one part every month all summer.

I am looking for a CPA that has experience filing taxes for adult entertainer’s in Las Vegas.

What are the Pros & Cons about being a CPA?

Anyone living in Sacramento CA region; any idea on how much it’d cost to get a CPA? Especially if I want to start a LLC and need a CPA’s experience in doing so.

I already have my AABA and BA in Accounting and Finance and also am currently taking a self-paced correspondence course for bookkeeping. I want to know if I need to get my CPA before I decide to start a part-time bookkeeping service from my home. Would it be in my best interests to get it or is it something that I don’t need to worry about?

I would prefer answers from people in the same field or similar experience. No spam please. Thank you.

I’m not talking about CEO or CFO vs engineer. I’m talking CPA with a few year experience VS a masters in engineering with a few years of experience.

I graduated from a private catholic college with a 3.2 gpa in accounting, and had a decent amount of extracurriculars. Now I’m a CPA with almost 3 years work experience in a NYC accounting firm. I know my GPA is at the very low end for top 25 law schools. Is it even worth trying to get into, say, Fordham?
LSAT was 160
I think you meant where, not were. Thanks.

I’m currently in college studying accounting. Right now my goal is to finish my degree and become a CPA. I hear quite often that CPAs have a poor work/life balance. I’ve heard they put it lots of hours and don’t get paid that well for what they out in. Is this true? I dont mind putting in extra effort but I don’t want to feel like my job dictates my life.

I have an MBA and I am wondering if I should go on getting a Black belt certification in Six Sigma ( NOT KARATE you guys!) OR become a CPA? Given the current job market which one makes more sense, CPA or Black belt in six sigma?

I’m going to sit for the exam in about 6 months. I plan to study 6 hours a day and complete the Becker Review. I just completed a very intensive graduate level accounting program at UCLA.

I’ve never done really well on the SAT and other similar exams, however, I did well on college exams. In order to pass the CPA, will smart and diligent study be enough to pass, perferably the first time?
