If you're working toward taking the CPA exam, Varsity Tutors can help you sign up for Indianapolis CPA exam prep. Future Certified Public Accountants can gain valuable review before they take this important exam. Whether you attended business classes at Butler University, Marian University Indianapolis, or another area institution, the CPA exam will cover everything you've learned on your path to becoming a CPA thus far, so reviewing the material you learned when you first started college can be useful when it comes to taking the test. Whether you would rather take an Indianapolis CPA exam prep class or work with a private tutor, it might be a good idea to get extra assistance as you review for the exam.
What are some of the topics Indianapolis CPA exam prep can help me study?
As a requirement for you to become a Certified Public Accountant, the CPA exam is one of the "Three Es," you must do in order to get your license. Passing this exam is also a requirement in all 55 jurisdictions of the United States and its territories. There are four sections of the test: Regulation, Business Environment and Concepts, Auditing and Attestation, and Financial Accounting and Reporting. You'll have to pass all four sections within 18 months and get a score of at least 75 on each section to become a CPA.
During Indianapolis CPA exam prep, you can go over the format of the test as well as the content. All four sections of the CPA exam take four hours each, but they all differ in the number of questions you'll answer. For example, the Financial Accounting and Reporting section has 66 multiple-choice questions and nine task-based simulations, while Regulation has 76 multiple-choice questions and nine task-based simulations. Three sections don't have a written communication part, but the Business Environment and Concepts section does have three of this type of question in addition to 62 multiple-choice questions and four task-based questions.
What are the differences between the two methods of Indianapolis CPA prep?
Varsity Tutors can help you find two methods of prep: private tutoring and online classes. Each type of prep can benefit you in different ways. Most students prefer to take either the class or work with a tutor, while some students will choose to do both. You'll study with an instructor who is knowledgeable about the CPA exam and is ready to help you prepare, whichever method you choose. Within the four sections of the test, there are several smaller subsections, such as Corporate Governance and Financial Management, that you'll want to make sure you understand.
Working with others is sometimes a helpful approach when you're reviewing for an exam. Enrolling in an Indianapolis CPA exam prep course might be what you want to do. Once you've signed up, you'll attend your class through our Live Learning Platform. Your instructor will conduct class using a video chat and a virtual whiteboard. They will lead you and the other students through each lesson, which might involve discussions over vocabulary in Business Law or Economic Concepts and Analysis. You might ask questions of your peers to clarify concepts you don't understand, and they might do the same. If you're still struggling with a topic, just ask. Your instructor will be happy to meet with you one-on-one.
Sometimes working on a one-on-one basis is a more helpful approach when you're preparing for a difficult exam. Seeking the help of an Indianapolis CPA exam tutor might be a better option for you. With private instruction, your academic mentor will focus their attention on you and your needs. Once they get to know you, your private instructor can create a plan for each session based on your learning style. For instance, if you're an auditory learner, you might listen to a short podcast about Federal Taxation of Individuals, and then you and your instructor can discuss what you heard.
How can get set up with Indianapolis CPA exam preparation?
Whether you get help from private tutoring or enroll in an online class, you'll have an instructor who has the expert knowledge you need to help you prepare for the CPA exam. It doesn't matter how busy your schedule is, either. Each method offers flexible scheduling, so you'll find it easy to fit either option into your day. If you would like to learn more about Indianapolis CPA exam prep, give our educational consultants a call. They can answer any questions you may have and help you make the right decision.
