Hi everyone! Which study tool is the best for the CPA exam? (Becker, Wiley, Roger, etc) Especially for FAR! I need one that can go over the basics and really explain the concepts.

Becker. And you want the final review portion because that really helps to simplify what is important.

I enjoyed Wiley. They material was bite size and helped me stay focused. You should do the free trials that almost all the programs have.

Becker

Completely anecdotal but everyone I’ve talked to who has used Wiley has said they’ve taken an exam multiple times before switching to Becker and passing.

I also used Wiley and passed all four parts on the first try

Free one, if you have to pay id do ninja

Ninja CPA worked best for me, I passed FAR and REG on the first try with it!

Any thoughts on the best certifications to get in order to help move forward? I have considered the CCP from World at Work, but it’s fairly pricey to get by the time you wrap up everything. I was looking at both SHRM-CP and SPHR. Everyone that I have spoken to has the SHRM, but that’s also only looking at individuals in a small geographic footprint and within 3-4 different companies. I was hoping to get some thoughts on this from others? Thanks

Best way to prepare for SHRM ?
