CPA Exam Experience from SuperfastCPA

How Caleb Passed the CPA Exam with AM Study Sessions


Listen Later

In this episode of the CPA Exam Experience Podcast, you'll hear how Caleb was able to pass his first three exams on the first try, and his last exam (BAR) on his second try. Caleb was a finance major in college, but decided to switch gears and go for the CPA.

Caleb had SuperfastCPA almost from the beginning, and it was a game changer for him. The biggest help for him was studying first thing in the morning. He knew that if he could get those two hours of studying done everyday, no matter what else happened, he would be progressing. Caleb has a lot of really great tips and advice, a great story, and a good sense of humor. You won't want to miss this episode!
