Passing the CPA exams is when you study hard, if you can't study or you don't have time for your studies I'd advise you get yourself a help like Mr Dylan.

People keep talking about Dylan all over KZfaq, he must be a very awesome help.

Yes you're correct but remember heaven helps those who help themselves, try studying if you can't study then get yourself a good help

I studied for months and couldn't pass, I guess passing is a blessing

passed mine after studying so hard, I'm not discouraging anyone just wanna say do whatever you believe will help you pass.

Appreciate it! Hoping to make it big

thanks! just watched your latest video and you do a great job story telling

Keep going man you got this!

​@@leoxlsbthanks man !

All the best . Now you are on which level? Like foundation, IPCC or Final?

the leadership conferences are organized by the companies and you apply for them like you would for internships but it's meant for sophomores in college

Yeah 20-30 hrs when its not busy on average, theres slower days for sure tho. There is 2 weeks of PTO and also 2 separate firm shutdown (holiday) weeks at big4

@@leoxlsb20-30 hours of billable work, so 10-20 of admin?

around 90,000-100,000

Honestly it was connections with my school and big four accounting firms. I do regret not trying a finance internship so definitely get your feet wet in both fields if you are unsure

Save yourself bruh, do not go into Big 4 accounting. Do anything you can to avoid public accounting, it's ass.

@@gadoosher honestly I have no interest in accounting. just wondering what prompted him to take this path

phew.. I've made it my life goal to save at least one person from big 4, so I'm glad you're on the right path already lol@@stanleychen2584

​@tanleychen2584 accounting is a broad term you can do audit, finance, taxation, adversy, consultanting or even entrepreneur. I think he did accounting because of it. An Cpa or CA accountant can be a finance guy. With time and experience accountants grow really good

They were company specific leadership conferences. So you would apply to them freshman/sophomore year like an internship but the conference is only for 2-3 days and they typically give you an internship offer after. Its also a great resume booster to apply for internships the following year

if you want to go into banking, I highly suggest finding an ib internship during college and recruiting for full time offers after

accounting would be a waste of time and difficult to break into ib afterwards

@@leoxlsb Look, one can't easily get IB internships and I see many I-Bankers have experience in accounting as it helps them. Many of them are CPAs in the Big 4 then do Master's in Finance and then break into IB. Doesn't that make sense to you?

@@leoxlsb What if I was pursuing a Master's in accounting STEM degree to keep my ass in the US, because then only I can have the 3-year work visa, and it is an assured placement program. Doing CPA along with accounting can help me to land in Mergers and Acquisitions and then in the front-end office of IB,?

LOL it is hell Ill disclose in a later video

In my opinion if you want growth Do CPA nothing less than this

@@saikatsaha4122 and what if I want to break into IB or Private Equity afterwards!? What should I do afterward?

I didn't want to travel to client sites and wanted me routine work then

@@leoxlsbwait what? leo what do you mean by that if you don’t mind me asking ❤

@@escano2r755 tax doesnt require traveling to client sites which was a plus to me back then

Everybody is under stress

Think about it. They are accountants. Not the most glamorous job lol

Yep korean
