Hey guys,
I know I can get more help going to the official website for the AICPA that administers the test and the DCA that looks over your transcripts to evaluate if you can sit for the exam, but I am in a HUGE dilemma and need help (kind of in panic mode and was hoping someone here could help me out).
I went to my academic adviser (at university) to have my transcript looked over in order to determine if I was eligible to sit for the exam and he said I was. Stupidly, I took his advice to heart (without DOUBLE CHECKING) and ordered in CPA review material from Yaeger. The material just came in today and I also went to see a professor regarding a letter of recommendation and brought in my transcript and told him how I am going to study for the CPA exam while I am looking for a job. He said I still need to take one more course (4 units) to sit for the exam (FML). I called the DCA and they told me that I cannot sit for the exam unless I have all of the units fulfilled…and I told them that I am taking an Accounting course in the fall and will be done with it in January, and they said until they receive the transcripts they cannot process it (takes 6-8 weeks).
I ordered the full package from Yaeger, which includes all four sections. I only received FAR because Yaeger told me that January-February tests 2012 material and the rest will be on 2013. Thus, they will send me rest of the material when I start studying for those parts. The thing is, what if I don’t qualify in time to take FAR in the first testing window? Will I have to restudy the latest updated material? Has anyone been in my position?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thank you.
