It's CPA Exam Time.
After graduating from a college over two decades ago, my mission was to pass the CPA exam.
I was luckier than
most in that I had a lot of time on my hands to study. I was nervous
about the entire process of taking the CPA exam (and new nothing about it...except
most people did not pass the first time).
Then someone highly
recommended Dr. Borra CPA review course. It was a course
that was given by a single person at a two different times/venues in the
area. Unlike other self study courses, you HAD to attend this
course. In fact, Dr. Borra recommended that students “double up” and
attend both of the venues.
Dr. Borra used a sort
of “Socratic Method of Teaching”. By this I mean he was constantly
calling on students to answer questions, stimulate thinking and drilling into
our heads answers to test questions.
Before taking the
course, I thought I would probably take the exam a few times before eventually
passing – that is what most people did.
However, after
enrolling in the class, I began to “up my game” by going to as many classes as
possible after constantly hearing week after week that this test is passable in
one shot…and I started to believe.
When it got closer to
the test time, Dr. Borra brought in many people to give “testimonials”.
These were average people that would go up on stage and tell the class how they
too passed the exam the first time. These testimonials helped me to
believe even more. As a result of this belief, I studied even more.
Exam time! After
four long months of constantly studying and going to Dr. Borra’s class, I took
the exam. And, after three more months of waiting I got the results and I
had PASSED THE ENTIRE EXAM. Dr. Borra made me believe in myself and the
power of self belief. A few months later, I too went back and gave a
testimonial.
