I found out I passed Core 2 a few weeks ago. Next thing you know, it was time for a new module. I talked about why I chose the Finance module previously so if you are trying to make a decision, I hope that will help. Since I enjoyed taking the extended pace (20-week) way…
A reader asked me if the chapter readings on Knotia were sufficient for CPA PEP Core 2 and whether I used any external resource. My response was that the chapters were adequate, however, I did watch some Youtube videos when I was struggling to understand the concepts from reading. I am sure many of us…
In my last post, I shared the news that I finally got my first 7 months of CPA PERT recognized. I had been meaning to write a guide for CPA PERT via EVR for a while but I wanted to wait until I have a successful experience first. The time is finally here and I…
