Episode in
CPA Exam Experience from SuperfastCPA
In this SuperfastCPA podcast interview, you'll hear how Margaryta was able to persevere through and pass the CPA exam. You'll hear how at first, she didn't fully implement the SuperfastCPA strategies and was scoring in the 50's on her own, but once she started changing her strategies, she jumped up to the 70s and eventually started passing exams.
With English as her second language, some parts of the process were especially difficult, but she learned so much through this process and it changed her life for the better. She not only learned how to pass the exams, but how to have more balance and structure in her life. She was able to stick through these exams for over three years until she passed, and so can you!
