    A is for Audit, for which you need a 75 to pass. Just because you’re an auditor, you’ll still need to study, lest you look like an ass.

    somebody come up with a clever B.

    B-passed! (4/2013). Lost Credit. Passed again (3/2015)
    A-passed! (2/2014)
    R-passed! (8/2013). Lost Credit. Passed again (6/2015)
    F-Passed! (4/2015)

    F is for FAR, a beast you must slay, if you choose to play it will be to your dismay.

     

    Studying for the CPA exam is easy. Its like riding a bike. Except the bike is on fire. And the ground is on fire. And everything is on fire. Because you're in H-E Double hockey sticks
