What's the Best "Learning Style" for the CPA Exams?

So this CPA study tip is about your preferred learning style in the CPA exams

So I get asked this a lot. If my learning style is X

what's the best way for me to study? So to answer that question, let's first think about exam day

I think everybody understands that if you can't go in and answer the multiple

choice questions and the simulations to the point that you get a 75

you're not going to pass the exam on test day. So working backwards from that

regardless of what your preferred learning style is, you need to learn how to dissect reverse engineer and make sense of practice

questions and solutions. You just need to have that skill of learning from the questions

making sense of questions, how to figure out questions. There's a lot of these little nuances that emerge when you spend most of your

study time doing what you'll be doing on test day. Now, on the other hand

if you're spending the majority of your study time watching video lectures

highlighting the chapter, reading the textbook, you know, that's better than nothing

but you're kidding yourself to a degree because that stuff can feel like you're

putting in study time. But if that is not translating to you being able to answer the questions and

getting them right, even if it's presented differently on test day, you are far

far ahead to spend most of your time doing exactly what you'll be doing on test

day, which is getting good at answering multiple choice questions and simulations. And that is a skill

So the key takeaway is regardless of what your learning style is

you need to get good at answering multiple choice questions and simulations

And there really isn't another way of doing that besides just spending most of

your study time doing that exact thing. So the reality is there are a bunch of highly effective study strategies or

these little tweaks, little ways of doing some of these common strategies slightly differently that

yield much better results. So we have a free training webinar where we go through the six key ingredients

of a highly successful study process. So when you're applying these much more effective study strategies compared to

the normal way of doing things, what you're doing is you're just layering advantages together and it honestly

makes it hard to go wrong. So specifically in this free training

the six strategies that we will walk you through, if you were doing all six of those things correctly throughout your study

process on a daily and weekly basis, it is honestly hard to go wrong when you're doing all six of these throughout

your whole process. In other words, this free training, it's one hour that will literally save you months and months of time and

frustration and likely hundreds if not thousands of dollars on retaking exam

fees. So to see the upcoming times, you can click on the link that's either on or below this video

you will see the study process much differently and you'll be able to see how

this is going to work so much better and more effectively than what you've been
