Fishes, happy new year! Targeting to go back to India in 5 years - figuring out what needs to be done professionally and financially. Professionally, I can stay on course and become partner but don't know what exit options in India would be like. Probably not even worth going through the grind now. So thinking of moving to industry although I like consulting. Thoughts? Financially, already have 2 cr worth assets in India and planning to have 5 cr more by the time I leave. Thoughts?

Do not know how to go about the pivot.

Currently A at KPMG (<2 YOE) with high certainty of promotion to SA in Sept. Enjoy working with my team, great WLB, and strong network for someone at my level. Current base = 75k with promotion bringing it to 92k minimum.

I have two offers at ~105k base, 15k signing for C and SA roles at other B4 which is a ~50% raise from current base but ~10-15% raise from SA base. Is it worth it to hop this early in my career or should I stick it out for a while to build more experience?

Hi Fishes,

I received an offer (28 Lakhs + 3.9 Lakhs incentive) from Novartis for Sr Project Manager yesterday. This was just 13.6% more than my current earnings as Project Manager. I've given the reasons why I deserve at least 30% to HR. In response to that, HR has sent 2nd offer i.e. 29 Lakhs + 4 Lakhs incentive + 50k sign-on bonus. The 2nd offer is just 18.2% higher than my current earnings. Need your suggestion, if I could still negotiate with HR to finalize deal by asking for 25% hike?

Is it a good idea to restudy FAR with just rewriting Ninja cpa notes and becker mcq + mocks? Or should i reread becker book? SOS

What is the best course for SIMs?

Dumb question, but can’t find answer online. Scores are permanently stored somewhere online right? My audit score from 6/30 is not showing on NASBA (just got done with BEC so checked today, passed!) and I did not print out a copy of it. TYIA

Does the exam give partial credits on sims? I ran out of time so I only filled out some parts of the questions for AUD

I failed my first exam and now I am having a difficult time gaining the focus and drive I once hard to study and seat for another… did anyone went through that same thing or similar how did you over come that? I tend to set high expectations for myself and get overwhelm when those expectations are not met… but I’m working on that.

My summer is so busy at work that I am having such a hard time finding time to study. I am a chapter in in FAR and am supposed to sit in a month. Strongly considering switching to reg and revisiting

Anyone take BEC recently? Am taking it in two weeks. Using Becker. Which modules should I focus more on?

Been struggling to study for the CPA exam for the last 6 months since i passed REG. I have 1 year before the credit expires. I asked for work flex schedule as the Partner agreed to allow me...

Historically, how similar have the Sims on the AICPA practice exam for FAR been to the actual exam?

Taking FAR again soon, last took in Aug 2018, do I have to worry about anything changing and how do i keep up with this?

Who's waiting for results to come out tomorrow?? 😬😬

🙋‍♀️ waiting for AUD

I just found out Becker has unlimited now?! My Becker expired literally two weeks ago. For those that were able to have their Becker upgraded, how recent was that?? 😭

Taking FAR 12/29. Anyone take it recently? Anything you were heavily tested on?

This is the first time I’m taking the exam. How long should I study for for each exam if I’m putting in 20-25 hours of study every week. I’m working full time

I’ve been in audit for 2 busy seasons and am getting 80s on Becker audit multiple choice questions. How does the real exam compare to Becker multiple choice? I heard you need to “know” audit > far.

What order do you study - read chapters in the book, flash cards, quiz , tests then simulations ?!

Any way to pass far in 15 days? I don’t know anything and have not started studying at all

Damn y’all, taking BEC tomorrow and am just not in the headspace for it with everything else going on
