In this episode of the CPA Exam Experience Podcast, you'll hear how Jimmy was able to pass the CPA exam by making small changes to his study process after his first CPA exam. Jimmy found SuperfastCPA right from the beginning, but didn't quite implement all the strategies until after his first exam.
You'll hear how Jimmy made these small changes, like studying in the morning and increasing his focus on the multiple choice questions, which led to him passing all 4 exams over the course of one year. Jimmy felt that he learned how to study efficiently and effectively, and his results show that. Jimmy lays out exactly how he passed the CPA exams, so you'll want to listen all the way through this one!
