So these are the three big problems with the normal way of CPA study and once I point these out
0:06
It's going to seem so obvious that you won't be able to believe that you haven't thought of this before and also you'll see how they're
0:13
Interrelated meaning that the first issue makes the second issue worse and the first two issues together makes the third issue worse
0:21
So so let's go to the tablet here So by the way, this is going to be the short version of this
0:28
This will take me a minute or two to walk through and I know I interrupted the video you're trying to watch
0:33
So I'll move through this quickly, but we have a free training where we cover this in detail including what to do
0:40
Instead of this normal way of CPA study You can click on this video at any time to sign up for one of these free videos
0:47
Just choose an upcoming time that works for you These trainings take about one hour and that's what you're gonna learn on the training is how to study in two hours a day
0:56
With your current review course but get better results than someone studying four to five hours the normal way
1:02
So so let's walk through this. So the problems with the normal way of CPA study
1:07
See, I have mastery written here and these are your lessons in your in your review course
1:12
So the normal way of studying is of course you just go in and you work through the lessons one by one
1:18
One two three. Let's say you're working on FAR and If you look at the AICPA blueprints, it literally covers 200 topics
1:28
So you've got more or less 200 topics to cover when you're working on FAR. So for each lesson
1:35
You try to feel like you've mastered it or you have a really good understanding of the lesson
1:41
So the way that most people do that is they start by watching the video lecture
1:45
Then they read the chapter then they try to work through the practice problems
1:50
Now the first issue is that takes a lot of time, right
1:56
You watch the video. It might take you two or three attempts. Maybe you zone out
2:02
Maybe you just watch the whole video feel like you didn't understand it So you go back you watch the video more or less like twice or maybe even three times
2:11
Then you read the chapter then you come to the practice problems
2:15
So this whole process takes a lot of time takes a lot of time to really feel good about the content from a lesson
2:22
Now the second issue you will run into is that watching videos
2:28
Does not equal the ability to answer questions And you've probably experienced this what I just said so you can watch the video two or three times
2:41
Feel really good about what's in the video then you get to the practice problems and realize okay
2:48
Apparently once it comes to question format, I really don't know how to do these questions
2:53
So at that point you you might go back to the video for a fourth time or you might
2:58
Look through the chapter to try to find the key pieces of information But but it's this struggle that and that's the point
3:05
so it takes all this time and you go through lesson by lesson one by one and
3:11
Here's the third problem The third problem is you get to the end of your
3:17
study timeline to your final review and You realize looking back you've forgotten huge portions of all this stuff that you spent so much time
3:31
studying so you spent all this time going through all the content and you realize that
3:37
You've forgotten huge portions of everything you studied and so forgetting all this stuff that you spent so much time on
3:45
that equals time Wasted and if you fail the section, what else does that equal that equals
3:55
Money that you have lost by paying for the exam, you know possible just paying for your review course
4:03
Also time is money. Just it's a big waste, right? Okay, so let's go back to the free training I mentioned
4:10
So instead of the process we just discussed where you try to master each lesson up front, but then you don't look back at anything
4:17
With our approach what you're gonna learn in this training is how to move through material
4:22
faster the first time so a much quicker way of going through each lesson up front and you're not trying to master it the
4:29
first time through because what you're going to do is you're also going to Reserve a portion of your daily study session, even though it's only two hours a day
4:38
You're gonna save a portion of that to constantly go back and re-hit all the information
4:44
You've covered from other lessons so that as time goes on as time goes on like this
4:49
You are getting better and better at all the content instead of
4:55
Spending all this time and effort up front and then slowly forgetting all those things that you learned and studied
5:01
So with this approach You're planting the seeds is what we call it and and we'll show you exactly how that works in the free training
5:07
You're planting the seeds then you have a portion of your day that is constant re-review
5:13
And again, it's a simple process. That's a lot easier It takes less time than what you're trying to do now, but the big benefit is what I just explained
5:22
you're constantly re-hitting all the things you've previously studied and then the general ideas behind
5:30
Studying to pass Versus trying to learn it all so this idea and again
5:35
We we will get into the details of what this means specifically as far as the study process
5:41
But what you're gonna do on test day is you're gonna get multiple choice questions and practice simulations
5:48
Now it sounds really obvious to say it like that but when you
5:52
Realize that that's your key objective is being able to answer the questions that you're going to see on test day
5:58
You would study a lot differently than the way your review course presents information
6:03
So we're gonna teach you how to use your review course much more effectively and much more efficiently
6:10
to study to pass to be able to do what you need to do on test day to pass and then the fourth thing is
6:18
the backdrop for all of this information that we're gonna present to you on the training is the six key ingredients to a
6:26
winning study routine Because think about this if you're going to put in months of effort hours a day of study
6:34
Hundreds and thousands of dollars to take these exams and try to pass these exams
6:39
What's the what's the one thing that you want to make sure that your process does for you
6:44
You want certainty? You want to be certain that all this time and effort and money is going to pay off that you're going to be able to
6:54
Passing scores. So on this training, we're gonna show you the six key ingredients that if you're doing these six things
7:01
It's honestly hard to fail your exams when you know and you're aware of these six things as you go throughout the study process
7:09
If you're doing these six things correctly, which again, we're gonna show you how to do that on the training
7:14
It's honestly going to be hard to fail your exams now I know I'm really pumping up the things you're gonna learn on this free training
7:23
But I promise you we will deliver on all these things We've covered because we're gonna get into the specifics of how this all works
7:30
You're gonna know exactly what to do when you sit down to study each day and not only that
7:35
Exactly how the study process needs to be working as the weeks go by as you get closer to your exam
7:41
