Prepare for the CPA - the Right Way

Not yet convinced?

Let us tell you why this CPA preparation website is different.

Other CPA review programs are all the same: they're terrible.

You're forced to watch hundreds of hours of videos and then drill the same flashcards over and over.

Somehow this is supposed to make you a great accountant.

Wouldn't it make more sense to prepare for accounting exams by actually doing accounting?

🚫 What's wrong with videos?

Watching videos is a waste of time. Here's why:

• Boring - Students become disengaged, wasting huge chunks of their lives for minimal benefit.
• Slow - Candidates wait and wait for speakers to get to the point. Even when sped up, videos are full of fluff, useless tangents, and corny jokes intended to distract you from how boring they are.
• Difficult to Review - Finding the part where an instructor brought up an important point requires searching through tons of videos and then skipping around for half an hour to find the exact explanation.
• Not enough examples - Many instructors demonstrate a concept once and then move on to the next topic. Unfortunately, students often need to see many examples to master new concepts.
• False sense of learning - Students feel like they're learning, but are they? No one will know until the students try to apply what they think they've learned.

Most importantly, videos don't create muscle memory.

• When you tie your shoes, you do it on autopilot.
• When you tell someone your email address, you do it on autopilot.
• When you sing Happy Birthday, you do it on autopilot.

This is because you've performed those actions many times before.

That's the magic of practice:

• You don't develop muscle memory by watching videos.
• You develop muscle memory by taking action.

This is why so many video-based courses are forced to rely on terrible mnemonics to compensate.

One highly regarded, and very expensive, program pushes students to memorize phrases like EBOCA SAFR OIE SOD CATP.

That isn't a great way to master accounting.

It's a form of torture.

🚫 What's wrong with flash cards?

Flash cards are almost as bad as videos:

• Boring - No one enjoys using them.
• Memorization over application - The CPA exam is putting more emphasis on applying knowledge, not recognizing it.
• False sense of learning - Candidates unconsciously memorize questions and answers. When a candidate recognizes particular numbers or wording, he'll just pick the same answer that he saw was correct last time, even if he doesn't grasp the concepts being tested.
• Lacking in context - Flash cards often lack step-by-step explanations to assist student learning.
