I graduated couple months ago, and not able to find a job. Therefore, I decided to not waste any time and study for CPA exam while I wait for replies. However, I checked the 2014 requirements to sit for the exam which requires

24 semester units (or 36 quarter) in accounting

24 semester units (or 36 quarter) in business-related courses

I am well over the units required for business-related courses, but I am about 2-4 units short on accounting related.

I took 8 accounting classes total in my college career. One of the classes is worth 6 quarter units while seven of them are worth 4 quarters unit each. Total of 34 quarter units. I am only 2 quarter units short. Where can I get this last 2 units fast and simple? Do local community college offers accounting credit? My local community college is literary impossible to register for a class. Most credit classes are full on the first few days, and my register time is always 3 weeks later than everyone else since I’m a new student. I really need help. Where to get this last 2 units easier without the hassle of application and registration time.

Also, I need help choosing which CPA prep courses is the better for me. Is funny, just after 5 months I don’t think I can remember anything about accounting anymore. I may only able to read simple income statement and balance sheet, and that is it. I tend to cram everything in my head the few days before exam during college, which is why I forget everything by now. Is there CPA prep course that teaches us step by step on how to do problems for every topic? I researched about some CPA review courses, and I think I like RogerCPA due to fun teaching style. I really like class-room style also, but if they are hard to find I can manage with online stream. I just need a review course that offer help at any time for any kind of questions. I like to study during night time to mid-night, which may be a problem to find instant help and replies.

Thanks.

Check out Roger CPA Review for credit. It looks like the course is an accounting course and you can do 1 section for 3 credits. I'm hoping to get some units through this.

FAR - 7/13 - 72, 11/13- 74, 2/14- 82!!! Best score ever (for me)!!!
BEC - 1/14 - 75!!! Perfect score! First Pass! YAY!!!
AUD - 8/14 - 80!!!
REG - 5/14 - 72, 10/14 - 66, 1/15 - 78 - DONE FOREVER!!!
I did 5 of the UNA and CPAExcel classes to earn units.

You can get accounting credits from CPA review classes.

Or UoP online has classes (3 units a class) that you can do in 5 weeks (kinda pricey though).

Would recommend Roger CPA Review. I've been out of school for years (also not an accounting major) and was quite terrified I was in over my head.

REG 10/12/13 - 94
FAR 10/17/13 - 93
AUD 11/11/13 - 92
BEC 11/20/13 - 87
ethics 11/27/13 - 92%

Can't you just do online through another Community college? I know my community college you could get sooo many credits and they could all be online. People would go to the community college for 2 years(mostly online) go to a not online college get a BS then got back to community online and get 150 credit hours.

Same situation here… Missed out Rogers academic credit program (they stopped accepting enrollment on Dec. 2, 2013) and I was told they don't know when it's gonna open again.

Contacted CPAexcel about their similar program for academic credit, no response. Probably because i told them i'm not considering purchasing their CPAexcel review courses.

Before these two, I did some research on University of Phoenix and the impression is it's rather more expensive than Rogers and CPAexcel's…and I hate to talk to their sales

machi123,

the main thing you want to consider is when the quarter/ semester ends, or how fast they can send your transcript. Since you need the units to start your CPA journey. A lot of classes now won't release grades until June. Look in to…

I spoke to an ancient wise man who sent me on a mushroom induced journey through an ancient forest to find the key to passing the CPA exam. A talking spider monkey told me to throw the last of my drinking water in the dirt to find what I was looking for. So I followed his instructions and the following message appeared in the soil:

"Do 5000 multiple choice questions for each section"

I was looking at the UCLA extension website yesterday and they have Becker for credit along with a lot of other offerings and the prices seemed surprisingly affordable… A few hundred bucks a class…

Sit for the exam in New Jersey. They are giving a waiver if you don't have the accounting requirement. Only need a bachelors degree. I'm accounting credits short but decided to start taking the exam
