Im trying to schedule my cpa exam for Feb but nothing is available. Nothing for March too. In the past Ive been able to schedule/reschedule a date as I get closer to the date I want (assuming bc someone dropped their date) but it seems weird no availability in the next couple months. Has there been a change to how to schedule an exam like dates will be added gradually as you get closer to the date? Or is nothing available bc everyone waited to take exam for the new AICPA score release schedule?

Foreign LLM student here. I plan to take the NY bar exam in February. I’m thinking of taking a bar prep course (most likely Barbri). They offer two options: the “traditional” course (which lasts around 2.5 months) and an extended 6-month course. The difference in price is substantial – 2.5k for the traditional course vs 6k for the extended one. Any thoughts/recommendations on which one I should take? In case it is helpful, I come from a civil law country. Thanks!

I am trying to figure out how to switch to SWE. I have a masters in civil engineering and have a good background in higher level math. It looks like the better coding boot camps are quite expensive.

I’m looking to get into the best position possible after getting an education in CS (get a job quick and good pay).

New York folks:
Are you aware of the CPA exam credit extension to 2021 for NY CPA candidates impacted by COVID19? It’s on a person-by-person basis and you need to request the extension. Has anyone tried doing this yet? Can anyone shine more light on this? The extension would really help me, but I’m not sure what more to tell them in my email than the fact that I couldn’t sit for the exams this Spring/Summer due to test centers closing in NYC.

Can anyone please advise on the process of obtaining a license in MA.
