Ever go out knowing your hair looks horrible or there is something wrong with your clothes? Everyone probably has but the more important question is – does anyone actually notice.

A scientist has tested mugs in several offices and wait until you hear what he found. http://www.upi.com/Health_News/2013/02/23/Expert-Coffee-mug-on-desk-agerm-machine/UPI-72401361679514/?spt=hs&or=hnBad things happen.

Live CPA Exam Courses + Earning CPE Credits - CPA Reviewed #80 Brandon - I've been out of school for some time and would like to test my skills to see where I am with the knowledge needed to pass the CPA Exam. I think I need an assessment exam to let me know what to focus on. Do you have something or know something I can use? Seth - I'm trying to select a CPA Exam Review Course. There seems to be only one course offering live CPA Review classes now, which i think will help me with structure, etc. But I've seen a lot of blogs complaining about the live classes and the price. What do you think of live classes, and are there other prep courses that you especially like? Alfonso - I just graduated with a B.S in Accountancy and I have all of the requirements needed to take the CPA Exam in Arizona. I was wondering what steps I need to take in order to take the CPA Exam? From my knowledge I need to send in transcripts and an application. Can you please provide me with a better checklist? Mika - I find it hard to review everything if all I have is a giant text book. I am looking for a good key points summary notes for my review times. I was wondering if I could get a sneak peak of your AUD review notes? Do you offer a preview? Numbersqueen - My exam is in a few days. I'm really struggling with the hedges, derivatives, and future contracts. Mostly, knowing which rates to use to determine if there is a foreign gain or loss. Sometimes you use the spot rates, sometimes the 30 or 90 day rates. It's a bit confusing. Can you make this clearer? Thanks in advance. Mohammad - I want to know when a CPE credit hour is earned? At the beginning of the course or at the end? Logic suggests it should be at the end of the course, but I to make sure. Patrick - My AUD exam is coming soon, and I have a few questions pertaining to the revenue and purchases cycle. Can you explain remittance advice and what that is? I see remittance advice and get that confused with the purchases side. *** Have a CPA Exam Study Question? Need Help Balancing Life and the CPA Exam?

Hany - How many questions are in the NINJA MCQ and Simulations? Ryan- I have been taking the CPA Exam off and on for about 7 years now and have used multiple cpa review courses. I am getting 65 to 70 every single time. I am beginning to become discouraged and thinking of throwing in the towel. However, I have a new baby and this has given me motivation to FINALLY get this exam behind me. Do you have any tips for me? Tim- So I just got my AUD scores back last night, and I got a 74 after studying my butt off the past 2 months. What else can I do to help me get over the 75 mark to pass? Tammy– I am not the one who is taking the CPA exam, my boyfriend is. Since he is too depressed right now to ask for help, I guess I will be the one to seek help. He has been very hard working over the past two years but for some reason still hasn't managed to pass BEC. So far he has taken it 4 times- 63, 72, 68, and 73 as of today. He has been using a review course along side NINJA MCQ and has being scoring pretty well and trending in the high 80% for ninja. Before the exam date, he would be doing 100 mcq & studying about 4 hrs on a daily basis and on weekends he would devote up to 6 hours. I feel like he has been doing everything he possibly can be doing but it's just not reflecting on his test score. We are both frustrated… I am sure he is more upset than anyone else. He doesn't know what else he could have done differently for his 5th BEC exam. Anything would help.

Ask Jeff Facebook Live Rod - I studied for FAR for over 5 months, went through my video course 3 times, as well as the Wiley test bank, and passed with a 77. Now that I'm studying for Audit I don't want to go through the same process. What lessons should I learn from my first studying experience? Alejandra - I have taken the audit exam 3 times and my scores were 70,69,70. What can I do to better prepare for my retake? Barbara - About 5 years ago, I started registering for the CPA Exam and never completed my registration. A whole lot of excuses later, I am ready to embark on this journey. Where do I begin? CPA Exam Survival Guide Ashley - Do you know if the pass rates for the exams are skewed so low because of 1) people who don't study, and 2) people who graduated 30+ years ago? If you had to guess, what percentage of people who have recently graduated with accounting degrees and are actively studying for the exam actually pass? Carolina - Is it possible to study day and night and pass all four sections in six weeks? Mike - I hate my job as an auditor and have a new job offer.

Eric - Best way to quickly and efficiently pass the CPA Exam while studying full time? Alicia - How large are the NINJA Audio files? I am guessing they are MP3 files, but I'd like to know if they can fit on my old MP3 player which is only a 4GB player. Also how do the updates work for the notes and the audio? Do you have to provide copies of your failing scores to receive the updates? I was just wondering if for some reason an exam got pushed back from the 2014 year to the 2015 year because of whatever, would someone still be eligible for the updates for free? I'm planning on starting the exam this fall and with the weather here in the northeast and my luck, I'll get snowed out on at least one exam testing day. What is the best way to pass quickly and efficiently the CPA exam? I am between jobs and I want to take advantage of my time off.

Kicking off on March 10th, these Beacon shows blended recent fan favorites like “Get On With Your Life,” “End Of The Line,” and “Nobody Knows” with such stone cold classics as “Statesboro Blues,” “Blue Sky,” “Jessica,” “Revival,” and of course, “Whipping Post,” all played with the distinctive invention and muscularity that defined this particular ABB line-up. Play All Night sees the Brothers unplug for a three-song acoustic interlude encompassing bare-boned renditions of Betts’ “Seven Turns” and Allman’s “Midnight Rider,” as well as a buoyant take on the Robert Johnson standard, “Come On In My Kitchen.” Also available on February 18th is Live At Great Woods, a feature-length concert DVD filmed at Massachusetts’ Great Woods Center for the Performing Arts in September of 1991. http://www.allmanbrothersband.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=userpage&file=content&page_id=65 William Hurt has been cast as the present-day version of Gregg Allman in the upcoming biopic Midnight Rider, Variety reports. The actor, who won an Oscar for his role in 1985's Kiss of the Spider Woman, is joining a cast that already includes All American Rejects singer Tyson Ritter, who plays Allman as a young man, and Wyatt Russell as his brother Duane Allman.

Shortly afterwards, it was confirmed that Warren Haynes would also be departing. Both musicians have highly successful touring bands independent of the Brothers, with Trucks winning a Grammy in 2012. Trucks and Haynes were both influential lead guitarists with The Allman Brothers. Trucks, a former child prodigy and now the driving guitarist behind the Grammy-winning Tedeschi Trucks Band, has been with the Brothers for 15 years, since he was twenty. Haynes, the roaring guitar genius behind Gov’t Mule, has been with the band since 1989. The move comes shortly after (incorrect) news from a Rolling Stone Magazine article, from a statement by Gregg Allman, that longtime bassist Oteil Burbridge would be leaving the band. Burbridge and Butch Trucks adamantly denied the rumors, which appear to have simply been a matter of miscommunication. http://www.americanbluesscene.com/2014/01/influential-guitarists-leaving-allman-brothers-band-in-2015/ Last piece of news this week: From Brian MacDonald-Grammy-winning International superstar singer Jack Jones-fresh off his appearance in "American Hustle"-is recording a new CD (produced by Grammy/Oscar legend Rick Jarrard), and has picked one of Brian’s songs as the first single... recording started yesterday, and it should be out before the Oscars.

It has been 15 years since I was in school. What is your opinion on the most effective way get up to speed on the new exam content, requisites and review methods? Michael - I'm having a hard time finding someone to verify my work experience as required by my state. I had a disagreement with my old boss and now I'm working on my own and can't find anyone to verify my work experience. The state requires that a CPA, from any state, verify that I worked for 1 year in public accounting, which I have been doing. What should I do? Greg - As I watch lecture videos and take notes, how detailed should my notes be? Does it make a difference if I type or handwrite the notes? How do I incorporate my lecture videos, the text, and NINJA Notes? Andrew - I have failed REG twice, but raised my score ten points (to a 74) after buying the Ten Point Combo. Would you suggest watching the review course videos again and taking notes, or re-writing the NINJA notes while listening to the NINJA audio? I still plan to hit the MCQs either way. Christina - Does the AICPA grade you on the number of MCQ questions you answered or the total MCQ questions in the test? So, if I only answered 80 out of the 90 MCQ, do they grade me on just those 80 or the total 90? Lauren - How many questions in each FAR testlet are pretest? Myles - How should I study during the last week before my exam? Chris - Where can I find the codification tutorial for FAR? Is there a free resource? Justin - Say I had two research questions on my Audit exam. Is there any chance that they both count? And how much does each count for? Are they equal weight to the other questions in the Sims? Carmela - FAR has a massive amount of information to memorize. I am studying the Fixed Assets section, and there is so many formulas. How do you remember everything?

Option1: Call the NINJA Hotline - (323) 834-9132 Option 2: Ask Jeff Today's CPA Reviewed Questions: Matt - I have the updated Ten Point Combo for AUD. Do you think the combo will be enough to supplement my studies without having to buy another book? Or do I need to purchase updated videos for the Clarity Project?   Ryan - On exam simulations, can you earn partial credit? For example if you are working an income statement and don't present something net of tax, do they only look at the net income number or do they look line by line to see if you did each part correctly?   Cedric - In the NINJA method, a what point do you stop doing non-stop MCQs and move on to rewriting the NINJA Notes? My concern is that I may use up too much time working questions and not leave enough time for the rewrite.   George - I just got my score for FAR, and it's 77. How do you keep the knowledge for a passed section if you don't do that type of work?   Cristy - For the multiple choice portion of the FAR, approximately what percentage of MCQs are actual problems that have to be worked?   Laura - In your experience, how much of an impact will the new audit material have on the exam?   Diana - I want to complete the exam by the end of 2013. What sections would you recommend that I study for first? Based on my time frame, should I try and complete 2 sections in one window?   Snehal - What is the best way to study for REG? I have the 10 point combo and Wiley book.   Agatha - Should I start studying before I schedule an exam, or schedule and then start studying?   Ruby - I just took the REG exam and went through all 4 testlets but clicked on quit instead of submit at the end. I received a confirmation letter that I took the test when I signed out from Prometric. Will the test still be graded? Is there anything I can do at this point?   Mariela - I'm planning to take FAR at the end of August. Do you have any recommendations to supplement my studying? I'm getting the 10 point combo lite, but I don't know if I should also get a book. I have an old review book from 2011, but I don't know if many changes have already taken place. Also, are there any changes to FAR starting Q3?   Sam - I work for a Big 4 Firm. Do you know whether passing my CPA exam on my anniversary date is considered passing within one year (eligible for $5,000)?   Jen - What is your advice for a career-changing adult who has no accounting experience, but is hoping to find a job after passing the exam?   Jess - If I am a licensed CPA in one state, can I refer to myself as a CPA in another state, where I am not licensed?   Danielle - How do you regroup after a 70 on FAR? What do you concentrate on or do you just start from the beginning with lectures again? Unfortunately, I had credit for three sections, and now I only have credit for two since I didn’t pass FAR.   Free NINJA CPA Review Materials Want to Study Less & Get Higher CPA Exam Scores?

Given the exam changes and the upcoming exam changes, where do I start? I plan to use your study materials and am anxious to get started. What advice do you have for people coming back to testing after a long break and what section is the best to start with? Ru - I did a simulated practice exam and got 48%. I reworked all the problems and got 100%. Do I keep doing this until exam day? Snehal - I am studying Audit. I failed twice with scores of 66 and 70. I know most of the questions and answers from Wiley. What is the best way to study for Audit? Johnny - Do you think it's necessary to refrain from social media while studying for the CPA exam? I check Twitter a lot throughout day and follow several blogs. I know you've said it takes sacrifice to be able to get through studying. Would you say that sacrifice also applies to Twitter and the news and blogs? Roberto - I am taking BEC in a month for the third time. The first time, I studied half of my book and scored a 65. The second time, I watched all the videos got a 50. Do you have any suggestions for me? Will the NINJA system work for me? Rob - What is the most efficient and effective strategy for studying for the governmental and nonprofit accounting section for FAR? I'm going through this stuff and I'm hitting a brick wall because my mind is numb. Do you have an accelerated way of moving through this stuff? Jack - Is there anything I can do if my prior employer won't sign off on my experience? Aren't they obligated to do so? I keep sending them the form to fill out and 5 months later, still nothing. Caitlin - I have a complete video lecture course from 2010 that I never got around to using, but I’m going to get started with studying for the exam soon. Do you think I should buy an updated package, or can I get by with the 2010 materials if I add in NINJA and Wiley? Sylvia - I have recently taken the Auditing exam. I felt like the first testlet was straightforward, the second progressively harder, and the third much harder than the second. Is that a good sign? Do you know how MCQs are graded?

It’s a long story. What products would you suggest for me? Christen - I have failed Audit five times but passed every other section. I have NO idea what I am doing wrong. I have the NINJA Notes, Audio, and Wiley test bank, as well as two lecture courses. What advice do you have? Dolly - I am a full time accountant working 40-70 hours a week with no time on weekends to study. I have failed BEC three times, AUD once, and REG once. I am highly discouraged and don’t know where to go from here. What should I do? Alex - I was just wondering if you had any specific info on how BEC written communication tasks were graded. If I get a written task about an unfamiliar topic that I don't know a whole lot about, should I only talk about what I'm sure is correct/accurate (even if that is very little)? Or, should I try to give a longer answer and throw a little "BS" in there as long as it sounds plausible? Kim - I am studying Audit right now. I read your post that you mostly memorize information to pass this section. Is that the best way to approach Audit? Jeremy - I made a 57 on AUD the first time I took it, so I started from scratch and went through all my videos again. Then I scored a 71. Do I need to go through all the materials again? What suggestions do you have for my next attempt? Ron - I scored a 44 on REG the first time and a 52 the second time I took it. Should I stick with REG or change it up and try BEC? I’m really frustrated right now. Joel - I just received my first payment coupon to take the exam in Virginia. I may be moving to Pennsylvania in the next couple of months for a job that requests me to have progress toward the CPA. Should I continue with the exam in VA even if I get the job and move, or should I just switch everything over to PA? Rana - Jeff, I am having the hardest time passing FAR. I just took it for the 3rd time. I have made a 43, 65, and now a 53. I am so discouraged. I have thought about moving on to a different part and then coming back to FAR. Any suggestions? Inketsu - I am currently a sophomore in college, and I chose CPA as my career. I would like to start studying for the exam as soon as possible, but do you think I should wait until I finish school? Kelly - If someone has many years of work experience but NO accounting experience, then goes back to school to complete a Bachelors Degree in Business with an emphasis in Accounting, are they likely to pass any of these exams?

I am planning to take all four parts this year. Do you think I can get away with using the 2012 videos and Wiley material, vs. purchasing 2013 material? Randy - What recommendations do you have for preparing for the tax preparer and ethics related questions on REG? Maggie - Do you know when the audit reporting standards are changing on AUD? I heard everything is changing starting July 2013. Brian - I didn't do all that great on REG. I think the problem I had was reading the chapters too much and not working the questions enough. Would it be a good idea if I focused all my energy on your NINJA notes, flashcards, and multiple choice questions and shy away from the textbook? I feel like I learn better reading cram notes than reading from the text. Have you seen any other student study in this manor and succeed? Hershey - I am preparing for FAR and planning to sit for the test in May. But now I am thinking that I should instead sit for Audit since it is going to change in July. What do you think? Shauna - Is there a complete IRC database online similar to the one in the exam software (other than the one available in the AICPA sample test program)? Adam - I studied my butt off for Audit using a video course and the Wiley test bank. I came out of the exam feeling like I got every question correct. I could not have felt more confident on the exam and the material. I got my score and ended up with a 71. I'm in complete and utter shock at my grade. Have you heard of this before? I feel like my exam was switched with someone else's. Sylli - I need to send my resume to one of the Big 4 firms, but I haven’t started taking the exam yet. Should I put the name of my review course in my resume? Andrew - I failed REG for the second time. The simulations are killing me. What can I do to improve in the sims? Michelle - It has been a long time since I have taken the exam and I am very nervous about starting this again. I do not remember the information about the new test format for each part, I do not know when the scores come out. I am like a new student with an old past.

Sara - My last score report for BEC showed I was only weak in the written communication portion of the exam. How do I improve in this area? Rose - Where do I find the motivation to work, study, and take care of my family while my spouse works? It has been a rough 2.5 years, and I’m exhausted. Do you have any advice? Jenny - Is if there is any real advantage to being licensed in the state in which one lives as long as it is not a job requirement? I’m a candidate in Indiana and recently moved to Iowa. I don’t want to pay the fees to transfer my license or take the ethics exam. I don’t think my employer will mind that I’m not licensed in the state. Is there anything that would make me want to pay the extra money to be licensed in Iowa? Hassan - I am studying for AUD, and my exam is coming up this month. I will not receive my video review materials until the mid of the month. Is there any way I can study and pass the exam the first time? Yim - I'm taking the exam in 2013 and interested in the NINJA Notes to study along with my 2010 review course material; however, I think there were lots of updates and changes since then. Do you think it is worth my money to purchase 2013 material from my review course? Elizabeth - The tragedy of the hurricane aside, the extension of the testing window presents me with a dilemma. Currently I am scheduled for November 29th. Should I take advantage of the extension and push my test back over another weekend or just buck up assume I am not going to increase my score by studying one more week and keep my exam on the 29th of November? Zubin - I graduated a year ago with a BS in accounting and have been working for a small startup for the past year. My career goal is to work for a CPA firm (big 4,regional, or local small firms). Do you think I should continue my work and pass the cpa exam and apply to firms after completion of all parts? Or should I go back to school for a Masters in Accounting and get another shot in the recruiting process? Ricky - I recently graduated and I have been having trouble finding a job due to what most accounting firms consider a low GPA. I would imagine it would be easier if I had some experience but it is hard to get experience when I cannot get a job in first place.

Should I wait until I know I’m eligible to buy review materials?   Melissa - I have a B.S. in clinical lab science and completed my MBA.

My concern is that I’ve heard so many “best ways” to study, that I’m nervous to try the NINJA way. Do you have any reassurance that your method works?   Jessica - I just received a job offer, and my new employer wants to see my CPA Exam results.

Is it worth a score review?   Julian - I spent an entire year studying for FAR and failed with a 68.

Is there a need to get the 2012 version, or has there not been that much of a change?   Stephanie - I'm studying for BEC, using a video review course and the NINJA method.

Get it on iTunes. Caitlin - Financial is the last exam I need to pass. I have taken it 3 times now and have failed with a 68,66,66. I know the material.

Do you have any advice at all?   Dan - For your NINJA Notes I was thinking of reviewing them a week before I take the exam. Do you recommend looking at the notes at the end of studying or as I am working through the material in my review course?   Aaron - I lose credit for one section on Oct 31. Do I have to take and receive a passing score for my last section before Oct 31 to keep credit on my first part or do I have to simply have to take the last section prior to Oct 31 and receive a passing grade when the scores are released in November?   Anastasia - What is your advice on restudying BEC when you receive a 74?   Emily - I am stuck in the group of people who always score between a 70 and a 73 for all of my exams.

I want to study for this exam right and get it on the first try.   Betsey - I have to take FAR and AUD, as well as retake REG by November, after failing with a 69. Is this possible? What should I do to prepare better? Right now, I am using a video review course with the Wiley books. Please help!   Mike - I recently sat for REG for a second time. The first time, I got a 73. I just received my second score this morning, a 74. Is it worth having the second score reviewed?   Mary - What do I do when I pretty much did everything you suggested and still failed the exam again? I spent about 46 hours per week studying. Do you have any idea what I may have done wrong?
