Students with Non accounting background
To start off its an interesting choice to take up the CPA exam. Its definitely profitable. I
will explain a route for you
You need to know the fundamentals of all the subjects. CPA is a postgraduate
qualification so you need to come to that level before you can consider attempting the
exams. You cant jump over this step. Plus you need to know about USA subjects. They
are very different from Indian laws and accounts.
Miles provides a basics in accounting lectures in their LMS. Depending on you, You will
have to consider doing additional reading to get your understanding upto the mark. Its
expensive to purchase american books. So I would recommend getting the books from
library genesis or anna's archive. Z library is defunct. Consider your internet security
when using these websites.
Aside from this there is ChatGPT. Its excellent in its interpretation and can help you in
the logical papers which is everything besides TCP and REG.
I would say if you don't do this you probably will not understand anything significant
from the regular miles classes and study materials. Doing this will take time. Its
unavoidable. You will have to give a month or so extra per paper in your prep.
This is the only route for you I think feasible.
Students with accounting background
Same starting point as above if needed. The additional reading based on your ability to
solve the MCQs and TBS. Again I reiterate if there is a NEED to do additional reading DO IT.
Let me know if there are any queries on Sunday.
Thank You
All the best
