Texas requires 150 hours of college before one can sit for the CPA exam. Florida however will let a student begin with 120 hours while still in college.
My thoughts are that it is way late to be getting accustomed to taking certified exams after completing 150 hours. One instead should begin building a ladder of successful accomplishment.
How about starting with the Certified Bookkeeper Exam?
This exam requires one to attend a testing center and is a very practical review of journal entries, adjustments, and payroll. Other professor have been negative on this idea given the word
book keeper.But my response to that is, if you can't learn to pass the book keeper exam, you will be throwing money away at more complex exams.
Start with CB.then move on to say CIA. All you study for CIA will be applicable to CPA anyway. Going to a strange location to take a timed exam under pressure is a new experience.
Building your confidence with a ladder of success will help one realize what is required to pass such an exam. Don't put off this kind of experience and foundation for years. Plan to begin your certification ladder ASAP>
