"Ask Jeff" Questions (another71.com/ask-jeff):
Tom - I am 27 and have no real-life accounting experience and have been working as a temp at firm for about a year in a position that doesn’t deal with accounting and very little finance. I want to get my CPA but my accounting knowledge is very low at this point. What do you suggest I do at this point? Do I need to do something to get a base accounting foundation?

Tony - I failed FAR with a 68, and I am starting to study again for the exam. Should I re-watch the lecture videos or just reread the book, rewrite notes, and practice test questions in the test bank?

Amber - I am overwhelmed by all of the review courses out on the market to pass the CPA exam. I'm going to get the Ten Point Combo and it seems to come with a plethora of information. Is that all I need to study for the four sections or do I need to get another review above and beyond?

Pam - I get very bored during lecture videos and find it hard to retain the information as I just listen to these guys talk for hours. Do you think supplementing my lectures with the NINJA Notes might be a good strategy? I’m wondering if this is a common way to study and if you know if it has worked for others.

Mike - There are no homework questions with my review course, only multiple choice questions. With the NINJA method, do I just ignore the MCQs for now and keep taking notes and watching videos? I feel like I learn more from the lesson when I work the multiple choice after the lecture and reading the material.

AScott89 - Do you think it's possible to study for an AUD retake in eight weeks or less? I just started studying for my retake and I'm hoping to schedule it for the end of November. I work part-time and my schedule is always changing.
