I have CMA (lollypop degree, btw). Thinking about the CGMA but ONLY because it's AICPA. Any benefits apart from that? Is it worth the time?

I have a CGMA and I didn’t take a test. All I did was pay for the designation when it was first offered. So that’s what I think of folks with a CGMA designation.

But why doesn’t the AICPA just want anybody sitting for the exam? I’ve done the CFA which is a lot tougher than CPA and there you can just sign up. If you’re smart enough to pass the CFA (most aren’t), then good on ya. I wish the CPA was the same way.

I have my CMA and found the exam was challenging for me. It also seemed like it overlapped quite a bit with some CPA material. I’ve thought about getting my CPA, but I’m really hesitating. I don’t know if I like this lifestyle that much.
